I am a certified school teacher. For the past 17 years, I have been teaching music and choir. I have been teaching Japanese with Outschool since 2020. I was born and raised in Japan, and I love to share my experience and knowledge with you.
Presentation slides will be shared to all participants after class. Students are expected to review the material they learned and memorize new vocabulary. It is advised to keep practicing the Hiragana and Katakana writing.
I will monitor each student and make corrections in class.
30 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
In class, I will be sharing GoogleSlides with instructional materials.

For practicing writing with nearpod, students do not require an account; I will provide a link for them to work on their own.
