Description

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...

In this lesson, students will be able to:

1. Learn how to respond when you are about to eat
2. Learn how to refer to things near you, close to someone else, and far away
3. Learn to ask if something is okay.
4. Learn how to ask where something is
5. Learn さ, し, す, せ, そ

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

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 studied

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.

1 hour per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

About Me

After trying a major in marine Biology in college I realized that my real passion was in the Japanese language and culture.   I loved watching anime in high school and had Japanese friends that were teaching me Japanese.

At first I had thought...
