I am a native Japanese speaker. I graduated from a Japanese junior college with an English major. I have lived in the U.S. for 13 years. I am married to a native English speaker and have two children who speak both English and Japanese. I love teaching kids and families who are interested in traveling to Japan for pleasure or business. Basic vocabulary, grammar and conversational Japanese.

I am not certified to teach Japanese but I have experience teaching students who are just beginners and helping them become better speakers of Japanese. My focus is on teaching basic Japanese language and culture to students of all levels of ability, beginner to advanced. I focus on basic grammar, vocabulary

Teaching style is flexible, but I generally understand students level and take in what or how they need to learn. Have taught Japanese @ Concordia Language Villages for 2+ summers. Have taught formal and informal lessons in both japanese and english. I have studied Japanese myself for 10 years, am told by native speakers I do not have any accent, and I take pride in what I have learned so far. Being a native English speaker, I feel I am better able to explain things to beginner to intermediate learners as well as supplementing Japanese-learning experience that I can directly relate to, having been through the exact same process.

I like to interact with people from different backgrounds from children to adults. My experience in Japan as a teacher at three public secondary school was extremely challenging but also exciting and rewarding. I am very friendly, patient and considerate. I emphasize the value of integrity and respect different cultures and people's background. As I believe the culture and society are strongly attached to the language acquisition,I would like to teach the culture of Japan as well to support the language acquisition. I am a bilingual speaker of Japanese and English. For the past seven years I have been employed as an English High School teacher in Tokyo, grades seven through nine, and I have found this experience to be not only challenging and exciting, but also extremely rewarding. Since I have relocated here in Minnesota permanently, I am now teaching my native language Japanese. I have

I've been told I have a great capacity for making complex ideas more understandable. This is why students seeking Math help at my University would ask for me specifically, I can take a complicated concept and explain it in a way that makes it seem much simpler, and when one approach doesn't work, I go again from a different direction. My goal is always to make the student understand the process and reasoning, not just memorize a method. I am approachable and patient, and I can adapt to any learning style. My favorite part of being a tutor is seeing that spark of understanding in a student's face. I have helped my fellow students learn for nearly as long as I've been learning, myself. While attending Community College, I worked as a Peer Tutor in a wide range of subjects. While attending University, I worked as a General Subject Tutor and as a Math Tutor. I studied abroad in South Korea f
