What's included
Class Experience
This 5-week intensive FLEX course will help you learn all Hiragana and Katakana. If you are able to read and write Hiragana and Katakana, your journey to learn Japanese will become much easier. This FLEX class is designed for: an absolute beginner to Japanese language, someone who hasn't mastered Hiragana and Katakana but has learned conversational Japanese, or someone who would like to brush up his/her Japanese basic writing skills. This is an asynchronous online class, which means that we do not meet regularly. I will post instructional video(s) weekly along with worksheets and powerpoint presentations, and you will be asked to complete weekly assignments. These assignments include: writing worksheets, audio assignments, quizzes, memorizing new vocabulary with Quizlet, and participating in a class discussion on the message board. Here is the overview of the class: Week 1: Hiragana *Day 1: Introduction to Hiragana and Katakana *Day 2: Hiragana "a" "ka" lines. *Day 3: Hiragana "sa" "ta" lines. *Day 4: Hiragana "na" "ha" lines. *Day 5: Hiragana Weekly Review.

Hello and Konnichiwa(こんにちは!)
My name is Akiko Graves. I taught Music and Choir at local public schools and a charter school for over 16 years. At my previous school, I teach Japanese Language and Culture during the short term in January to the students from the 7th through the 12th grade. I would like to offer engaging Japanese courses and vocal music courses.
I earned a B.A. in Music from California State University, Fresno as well as a teaching license in Music. After receiving a B.A. and a teaching license, I have taught vocal music at elementary schools and choir at both middle and high schools. I also earned a Japanese teaching license in California and taught Japanese at a Japanese Saturday School to young children of the ages from 7 to 10. In addition, I earned Master's Degree in Education from University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
I was born and raised in Japan, and I went to schools in both Japan and the U.S. I teach the Japanese language and culture authentically, and I am very engaging. My lessons consist of language exercises with activities and games. I believe that every child can learn, and I use various technique I learned through my teaching experience and from my Master's program. I ensure that every child will leave my classes feeling accomplished.
I am married to a wonderful man, and we have a beautiful daughter who is a competitive figure skater. We live in Bountiful, UT with three cats and one dog.
