This is part two designed to help someone not only to become fluent but also understand the culture and all the writing systems. They will study in an upbeat and interactive way, where all students will feel comfortable and engaged.
Class experience
With a little bit of experimenting, I have combined two learning methods into one, both to help the learner succeed and master the Japanese language and understand the Japanese culture. This class is designed to help the student become fluent in Japanese and to understand the culture behind not only the language but also the people. I will first put the student into a situation and then give them sentences to respond to those situations. The sentences will then be broken down into vocabulary...
1. Review Na-adjectives -Learn about na-adjectives (the ending na disappears when you have desu in there) -Learn how to ask questions using na-adjectvies. -Learn how to say something is not using na-adjectives 2. Review I-adjectives - The i adjective stays the same and nothing changes -only changes when there is a negative -Review how to say something is not using i-adjectives 3.

I received my undergraduate degree in the Japanese language, culture, and history. I also earned my Master's degree in K-12 education. I studied abroad at Nihon University in Tokyo as well as worked as an English teacher in Niigata, Japan. I was able to see what I learned firsthand
Homework Offered
Students will be given worksheets to print out after the class to reinforce their learning. Because this class meets once, this is optional and they have the choice to send their homework to me to look over. They will get a vocabulary list that goes over everything they have studied0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
I do not routinely give an assessment at the end of the class. However, if a student or parent would like an assessment, they may request one by emailing me.Grades Offered
