Are you ready to speak Japanese?! In this 5-week class, students will start speaking Japanese from day one! We will not meet live; however, once a week, instructor-created videos and assignments will be shared with students. By the end of the five weeks, students will be able to introduce themselves, count from 1 to 10, say color names, and much more! 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. Come on and learn some Japanese!

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!
