My comments on tutoring Japanese : I have taken classes in Japanese speech training in a technical college. After having MA, I taught the subjects as “Speech communication”, “Intercultural communication” and “Communication and manners at hospitality industries” at several universities and nursing colleges in Japan.

I absolutely love teaching the Japanese language to students of all ages and meeting new people from all over the world. Teaching has always been a passion of mine and one of my methods of loving people. I always enjoy guiding students to not only passing tests but helping them become both competent and intuitive in the Japanese language. Helping others learn and grow is so important to me. My teaching style is to leverage my linguistic knowledge and compare/contrast both languages and cultures to help my students understand and master the language efficiently. Also, since the language and its culture are tightly connected, I usually teach Japanese culture and intercultural communication as I teach the language. I teach Japanese at all levels, and my lessons have been popular and well-received among my students in universities and the hospitality industries. I also teach K-1 ... read more

Japanese is one of my top subjects!

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.
Business casual-- Organized teaching without a serious atmosphere.

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

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

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 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 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 have a strong background in science and math, giving me a passion for both subjects. I have always loved math, but when discovering a love for science, it seemed to be the perfect marriage for me to study chemistry. I earned a BS in Chemistry at USF and have also taught Chemistry to first year students my senior year giving me an edge on teaching. I have also taught martial arts to many students in the past, giving me an edge on being disciplined and understanding. I believe I am more than able to teach algebra, calculus, and science in your program. I also tutor Spanish.
I have been teaching martial arts since high school. I studied Wing Chun Kung Fu at an early age and later became my Sifu's helper in and out of class. I like to base my teaching like martial arts, teach the information by showing how its done, then use examples of it directly involving the student, and la ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 also find it important to observe myself and to get feedback from others. In doing so, I can adapt to my environment and improve.
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 at ... read more

I am eager to prepare more students for success in their studies. I will encourage students to develop a love for reading and writing. My experience in tutoring began while I was a high school student. My residence in Japan brought unique opportunities. I gave reading lessons to a first-grader who was a native English speaker. Within three years, he was beating two teens and four adults at Beyond Balderdash—a game that requires reading, writing, and creative thinking. Later, I tutored both a third-grader and a twelfth-grader in English as a Second Language. My mother, who has a master’s degree in Elementary Education, mentored me. I was responsible for my own homeschool studies at that time. By study and daily interaction, I attained conversational fluency in Japanese. After moving to Florida, I decided to major in English Education. When I did a teaching practicum, I worked with both ... read more

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.

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 provided therapeutic action and wrote daily individualized reports. I have assisted in two classrooms and instructed P.E. at a Montessori school. I lead a classroom of lower elementary students (6-9 yo). I have extensive experience tutoring, teaching, and managing individual and groups of children.

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 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate, I am very passionate and motivated to achieveing a higher level of education. I have earned a BA in sociolgy and plan to go back to school to obtain my master's in medical social work and possibly a PHD, also in medical social work. Sociology has taught me many ways to approach various situations and extensive writing, research, and grammatical skills. All which are due to writing research papers and participating in a variety of different research studies. In high school and for the past year, I have tutored students and enabled them to excel in reading, writing, and Spanish.
I love teaching and helping all children. I believe that each child is different and needs different methods to help them better understand the material set before them. No one child can learn the same exact way as another, which is why I work at the pace of your child and at a l ... read more
