Topics covered include basics of self-introduction, navigating Japan's public transit system, and shopping.  I will teach a little bit of each of the three items above.  My teaching style is interactive and patient.  I create a positive learning environment to put students at ease and motivated to learn.  I will include simple quizzes, practice time for students to work and ask questions, and introduce students to current cultural trends in Japan.

Learning Goals

Goals include: 1) for students to comfortably write and speak their self-introductions;
