Jacob
Certified Tutor
I specialize in tutoring Japanese, with a student-focused teaching style focused on tailoring language learning to fit the learner. I'm a graduate of the University of Minnesota, with over five years of experience living in Japan. During my time in Japan, I developed a passion for language learning. Working as an English teacher in Japanese public schools, I gained unique perspective into the language learning perspective, seeing how students learn a second language while also learning Japanese at the same time. Language learning isn't just academic, it's also based on experience and personal motivation. By finding what makes you motivated to learn a language, we can work together to improve your Japanese abilities while also building your interest and desire to learn the language.
