I have a Bachelor's degree in Japanese and East Asian Studies. While working on my degree, I completed a study program abroad at Nihon University in Tokyo. After graduation I lived and worked in Hokkaido, Japan for 3 years. My job was primarily teaching ESL (English as a Second Language), but I occasionally did some local work as a translator and interpreter. I am currently working towards receiving an N2 certification in the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test).
Homework Offered
I will make and provide worksheets after most classes for students to practice the characters they learned. We will go over these worksheets as a class during the review portion of the following lesson. The worksheets are usually 1-2 pages long. At the end of the course, each individual student will present their final projects. The projects are speaking based and will be introduced to the students in Lesson 7. Class time will be spent at the end of Lesson 7 and the beginning of Lesson 8 preparing and asking questions about the final project, but students may need extra time to finish outside of class.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
A written report is available at the end of the course upon request.Grades Offered
3 files available upon enrollmentStudents should come to class with something to write with and something to write on. They should ideally have access to a printer as well for the worksheets. If this is not possible, students could work around this by writing down worksheet answers in their notes.
