Japanese is one of my top subjects!

Business casual-- Organized teaching without a serious atmosphere.
I spent a year studying Japanese in the United States, before moving abroad to Japan and attending a Japanese university. There, though I did not take formal Japanese classes, I took classes taught in Japanese, and spent my days learning and interacting with native speakers. In addition, I self-study using various other resources.

Japanese is one of my top subjects! Japan has always been close to my heart. I am a high beginner and can tutor with the basic hiragana, katakana and very basic kanji, as well as a bit of grammar and some vocabulary.

I am currently a student at the University of South Florida, seeking a Bachelor's degree in German Studies. I have some background in International Studies, specifically with Latin America and some in the Middle East. Predominately, however, I have done foreign language studies from a young age. I began studying Japanese language, culture and custom at 14 and have a basic understanding of it. I studied German for two years in high school and went on to live as an exchange student in Northeastern Germany for one year during my Junior year. While I was there, I attended a German high school, lived with a local host family and gained near native fluency throughout the course of my time there. I am a native Spanish speaker and have also taken several business Spanish courses in order to perfect my formal speech.
I believe that conversation is an essential part of language learning. Af ... read more

Fluent Japanese Tutor!

While I was living in Japan, I taught Japanese to non-Japanese speakers in both one-on-one situations and in groups. After arriving in the United States, I have continued to offer one-on-one and group lessons. I can especially relate to those that want to learn Japanese, since I struggled similarly as I learned English. The lessons that I taught ranged from 30 minutes to an hour, according to the preference of my students.
I focus on the four skills of a language when teaching - reading, writing, listening, and speaking. In addition to tapping into each of these areas when teaching, I also like to include cultural studies, since I am a firm believer that one can only become a master of a language if they have mastered that language's culture, as well. - Reading and Writing: I start teaching by focusing on romaji, which is Japanese spelled out using letters from the Roman alphabe ... read more

My comments on tutoring Japanese : While not fluent in Japanese, I have taken 3 years of high school level courses and am familiar with the expectations thereof. I have passed the kanji kentei through 8th kyuu and passed 9th with a perfect score.

I have tutored 1 student privately in Spanish for 2 years, and she went from failing her class to passing both the AP and IB exams with a 5 and a 6, respectively. I have also tutored small groups in Spanish for one semester ranging from high school introductory level to AP level. I have also tutored for one semester of ASL at the college level, and one semester of Japanese at the high school introductory level.
I aim for all tutoring to be done in the target language, but I recognize that this is unhelpful for many students. Nevertheless, I will start out only using the target language, but will switch to the students' preferred language upon request.

I have been to several trainings on teaching methods and how to become the best teacher. Through my own experience, I know that all students are capable of learning, but each has their own unique way of doing so. I like to incoporate visual and hands-on activities and when possible, teach in an informal setting. I like to provide an atmosphere of fun and excitement while teaching a subject. I like to provide as much positive feedback as possible and add humor to my lessons. I find that students respond better if you can make them laugh because a smile goes a long way!
I have an extensive background in various areas, such as Science, Technology, and Swimming Instruction. I have always enjoyed teaching and helping those who are struggling in a particular subject. During the past 6 years, I have helped students in their reading skills, vocabulary, elementary math, science and computer ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love my students, put them first, and put developing rapport with them as a high priority. I maintain eye contact, smile, and speak respectfully. I make lesson plans in advance; however, I allow students some freedom in choosing the order of activities. When questions come up, I try to lead my students to an answer by asking questions in return. I provide regular testing to determine when they have mastered a concept and are ready to move on. I inspire my students to be confident and creative. Then they are motivated to improve academically. Here are some examples of my teaching style, taken from my teaching practicum through my college English Education program. My twelfth-grade honors class gave their teacher rave reviews when I substitute taught a lesson on Macbeth. The text was my guide, and I wanted my students to be guided by the text to new discoveries. Later, I led this class ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Each child is unique and learns in different ways. By being an active participant, children are able to 'construct' their education more impressionistically, with the understanding that auditory and visual aids accompany. As a Montessori teacher I approach the students with attention towards their overall well-being. I guide my lessons with patience and clear direction, and note progress toward specific follow-ups/goals. I devote time to updating records and documenting observations.
As a teenager, I became an Eagle Scout and was a peer mentor (Big Bro./Big Sis.). I am an Earlham College graduate with a BA in Japanese Studies. After graduation I went on a study-abroad program to Japan and taught English to junior high students, and tutored elementary students in Japanese upon returning to the U.S. I was a counselor at a camp for teenage boys with behavior issues where I provide ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In high school, I was a member and officer in peer leadership. Our organization organized school events, attended clinics/workshops (brain damage/anti-violence), and tutored younger students. During my years at Ursinus College, I was a double major in International Relations and Child Psychology until my junior year, when I found it too difficult and almost impossible to graduate with both majors. I decided to focus on I.R. in my undergraduate years, planning to later attend graduate school for a master's in elementary education. For the past 6 months, I have been teaching English in South Korea.
I have been taught by a variety of teachers in my collegiate as well as high school and elementary years. Some of the most influencing teachers have been those who told me that as a teacher, one can never stop learning. So, when teaching children, I bring my own unique style, but I a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently a middle school math teacher in Hollywood Florida. Prior to accepting my current job, I taught English in Japan for two years. My teaching experience, along with a liberal arts education at Emory University, has primed me to be a successful tutor in a variety of different subjects.
Teaching and tutoring, while similar, are actually two distinct practices. While teaching presents a subject to a large group of students, tutoring requires the tutor to work with an individual to determine his or her strengths and weaknesses, and go forward from there. As a tutor, it is extremely important to identify an individual's needs and work together accordingly.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all children can enjoy eating broccoli. I find this works best if the broccoli is smothered with cheese and accompanied on the plate with something fried. I have found that overeating is a very effective way to teach the student dangerous gastric consequences. I demonstrate this by ordering pizza, allowing them to eat as much as they want, and then immediately afterwards giving them free reign to various quarts of ice cream. I know I can make a difference in every students' stomach.
After graduating cum laude from Yale University with a PhD in Eating, I interned for two years at Dunkin Donuts, fine tuning my skills in eating pastries. I've also spent two summers eating in various food malls, specializing in China One, Chick Fil-A, and Baskin Robins. I have tutored students Overeating, Pizza, and Alka Seltzer.

I have a passion for the reliability and order of involved in Mathematics. I have found that when broken down into a method that students can understand, math becomes much more manageable. If we interpret the nebulous vernacular of mathematics into simple English, most students will find it to be less difficult.
I attended the University of Florida where I earned a BS in Mathematics and took a heavy science course load to prepare me for further medical school prerequisites. I have established a solid understanding of the core sciences as well as an exemplary command of mathematics. In addition, I have had multiple experiences aiding foreign students improve English as their second language.
