Beginner Level Japanese_Intro to Japanese 05 (11-16)

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.  

****If you are unable to register for my classes using ESA, please send Outschool helpdesk a message, and please let me know!  I appreciate you taking time to letting me know.

即使您的孩子对英语不太熟悉, 别担心! 我能用普通话和英语教课, 所以放心跟我学日语吧!  我在美国公立高中教了9年的日语, 所以我对教日语很有信心。希望您的孩子和我一起学习日语时会学得开心。

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 of 9 years at a public high school.  While I appreciate having a structured learning environment at a school setting, I miss the free-style teaching that suits the needs of each student.  Desires to learn come strongest when one is genuinely interested in something, and rarely do those desires come from wanting to learn from a textbook . I hope you will have fun and enjoy my classes.

If you are interested in having your learners learn Japanese using a textbook and a workbook, please let me know!  I have a few private section of classes using textbooks.  Each student are required to have their own copy of the textbook and the workbook for these classes.  

For those who seeking for a study group to study for JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) , send me a message!  I would love to host study sessions/classes for those who are studying for the test.  Studying for JLPT can be fun with others :)

I graduated with degrees in art and film. I also studied architecture for my graduate degree, after I worked at an architecture firm for nearly two years. 

As part of my art and film degree, I am trained in typography, graphic design, presentation design and film production which come in handy when I create my class materials for my students.  

My tutoring experience started while attending my graduate program in architecture.  I began tutoring college level Japanese to help students succeed in their studies.  Through my help these students were able to ace Japanese course placement tests.  Since then I have tutored from middle school to high school students for AP Japanese exam, JLPT exams for N5, N4, N3, and N2.  For adults, I have had the honor of help writing speeches, translating articles for thesis, and tutoring in business Japanese as well as preparing for JLPT exams.
