There will be interactive class activities for informal assessments. Pair activities/assignments are designed to develop each student's 21st century skills such as collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. If you are a home school student who is looking for a formal assignment grades, I will be happy to work with you (but I need to know what is expected). ::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Any required experience or knowledge learners need? ::::::::::::::::::::::::::: This is a beginner's class, but students will learn hiragana outside of class on their own with recommended materials.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
I have Quizlet and Gimkit vocabulary games students can use outside of class to study vocabulary from the class.
For Quizlet, students will need to have their own account to have access to my private folder of vocabulary.
We use Gimkit to play vocabulary games or help students with learning hiragana from time to time. Students will go to https://www.gimkit.com/join and type in a class code to join the game together with everyone in the class. No apps or anything else is required.
Supply List
If you use an iPad, please learn how to use split screen function, as students will work in writing or answering questions on interactive exercises while I hold the class with zoom. Something to write with A notebook Some color pencils or markers/highlighters

Texas Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Bachelor's Degree in Art and Design from University of North Texas
Certified teacher for Japanese (EC-12), Mandarin(EC-12) and Art(EC-12). I grew up speaking Japanese, Mandarin and Taiwanese, so I have no problem mixing them up to meet your need. Many years of freelance tutoring experience for Japanese and Mandarin have helped me teaching all levels of Japanese including Pre-AP and AP classes at my former employment at a public high school.
I am also experienced in curriculum building for 4 years of Japanese language education based on ACTFL proficiency standards as a former school teacher. As I teach more and more students from all over the world, I have become more familiar with CEFR rating as well as GCSE tiers.
I am an active board member of JTAT(Japanese Teacher's Association of Texas) and I host workshop webinars for JTAT members as well as give presentations at foreign language teachers' conferences to offer opportunities to learn new skills, new strategies, and best practices.Reviews
