Award-Winning Japanese Tutors serving Riverside, CA

I received PhD in Management from NTNU and MSc (Environmental studies) from the University of Tokyo. I have tutoring experience with elementary, middle, and high school students in various subjects in Japanese since 2001. Raising my two kids outside Japan, language development is always my major interest. That is why I am here to assist you learning Japanese, from casual conversation, test preparation, to business Japanese.

...or with a small group. Teaching others is a great way to expand understanding of how other students think and develop ideas, and it allows myself to see new ways to look at problems. While I'm not studying (or helping my friends study), I love to play music (piano, flute, guitar), take a walk through the forest preserve, draw, design/sew clothing, chat with friends, etc. I look forward to contributing to students' learning endeavors!

I enrolled in medical school in the fall of 2016.

...students in all of the subjects I specialize in, I love tutoring students in physics (specifically, mechanics and waves). Physics is my favorite subject to tutor because while it is more difficult to demonstrate phenomena from other subjects such as organic chemistry, physics is a very prevalent science, so even by rolling my pencil off of a table, I can easily demonstrate physics concepts to my students. For me, hearing "Oh, that makes so much...

...super excited to be your ESL, French, Japanese, or Music Theory tutor! I find that the one-on-one environment of tutoring is truly special because of the tutor-student relationship that can develop over time, and the learning and growth that can happen in such a setting.

I would be willing to help with any of these subjects, with math, science, and languages being more of my...

...ways. However, no one person learns the same way as anyone else. We can make general methods to teach many students a bit, but to really learn something, the learning process has to become more personal. I always try to take a preliminary period with my students why they want to learn or to improve in something. By understanding what they want from tutoring, I can tailor my lessons to how they learn so they...

I have loved science ever since I was a kid and watched The Magic School Bus and the Bill Nye show. I majored in Neuroscience and Behavior in college, so I learned a lot about Biology and Psychology, and I plan on getting a Master's in Bioengineering.
