Class Experience

Welcome to Dive In! A Japanese Club for Beginners. In this ongoing course, students (ages 5-9) will learn to speak Japanese! We will meet once a week, and every session will focus on a theme. As each class is thematic, students can dive in at any week. Students will also be exposed to the Japanese hiragana system. They will see the vocabulary in both English and Japanese script and romaji (using Roman letters to write Japanese words). This is just for introducing the hiragana system and not a requirement for them to learn to read. Furthermore, they will learn phonetic pronunciation. It is vital that students feel welcome and excited about learning. While having fun, we will also practice good classroom etiquette. The class will be interactive, and students will get a chance to speak with one another and learn to do so in an orderly fashion. Using Total Physical Response (TPR) and props, I will engage students to make quick connections with words and phrases. Let’s get ready to learn and have fun!

Hi! My name is Retz. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in History with a minor in Biology from the University of Miami. I received a Master’s Degree in History from Villanova University along with a Museum Studies Certificate from the University of Delaware. One of my passions is Japanese. I have lived in Japan for five years. I obtained Japanese Language Proficiency Test Certificates for the N3, N4, and N5 levels. And have been teaching Japanese in various capacities. I also possess a TESOL certificate and have taught ESL English for over eight years. I have experience teaching kids from 3-15 years of age. In my class, it is vital that students feel welcome and excited about learning. I do this by engaging with the students and providing encouragement and simple rewards throughout the class. Let’s learn and have fun!
