Award-Winning Japanese Tutors in Houston, TX

...attained both TEFL and TEYL certificates to have an understanding of how to teach ESL to non-native English speakers. I am now working on a nanodegree for front end development. I have taught ESL extensively in junior high schools in Japan. During my seven years in Japan, I have taught toddlers in kindergarten, elementary school students, as well as business English to companies such as Toyota, and have also developed an advanced command of the...

...one year of studying the language, 4 years of undergraduate and 2 years of masters, I decided this is the place I will call home (or second home :). Japan is where I became a (hopefully) responsible adult, met my other half, learned to appreciate nature during all seasons, and understood the true meaning of hospitality. I look forward to sharing my Japan experience with anyone interested in this amazing language and culture.

...of Pennsylvania. I have more than twelve years of extensive private tutoring and classroom teaching experiences with students of all ages. I have helped more than 150 students to date in private tutoring settings specifically and also draw on my classroom teaching experiences. I bring a unique, diverse, and intellectually energetic component to all students and am extraordinarily passionate about education and helping students reach their goals. I am able to relate to students of...

...Japanese, Chinese, and English fluently. I used to be a president for the Japanese Language and Culture Club, which I occasionally teach Japanese to students. Also, I was a TA for microbiology in college for a year and I tutored in math and reading in college and high school. I received 5 on AP Japanese and Calculus BC. I really enjoy teaching, especially Japanese, Algebra, biology and chemistry, and I would love to help students...

...and appreciate the small class sizes our school offered (from 1 to 6 students). I think one-on-one lessons are very beneficial for students, and I would love to continue teaching here. Before leaving for Japan, I enjoyed working as a susbitute for Katy ISD. I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in history, and I also feel very comfortable teaching grammar, reading, writing, editing, and Japanese. In my free time,...

I love sharing knowledge with others, and consider education, no matter the subject, to be one of the most important things in life!

...Arts, but I specialize in teaching Math and Science. As a tutor, I love to see students improve themselves, and I strive to create those "aha!" moments when everything begins to make sense. When I teach, I find it is most effective to find out how a student approaches a problem and rationalize it in their mind. Although memorization is necessary at times, it is better to learn how a concept is derived from other...

...LR (which is 50% of your grade). I also have methods to visually represent logic games which I believe is the most learnable, and getting a -0 or -1 is well within anyone's reach. A little about my experience, I have been teaching in Asia on-and-off for about 3 years now. I have taught English in Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. This has made me much better at explaining concepts and visually representing ideas. I...

...with others, especially in one-on-one sessions, 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...

...academics and research mentorship as well as a translation program from and to English outside of class. I speak Japanese and French, and I have taken the PSATs, SATs, 10 APs, and the GREs successfully. I would be willing to help with any of these subjects, with math, science, and languages being more of my strong suit, and I would be willing to drive to a location as well as do online tutoring.... It is always...

...approach to tutoring is simple: learning does not come easily if it cannot be made digestible. In this light, I employ a range of techniques to engage and drive my students towards their own litmus of success. I love integrating games, technology, or a points system to support students. If the first approach does not work, I am open and flexible to hearing feedback from the students and their parents in the interest of maximizing...

...with material in different ways. Together we can develop this as a strength so that you have your own set of tools that you can apply to any problem. This, ultimately, is the test of any academic pursuit. I am comfortable reaching out and adapting the material whether it be SAT, SAT II, IB, AP, or classwork to where you are now. My hobbies include poetry, electronic music, ink drawings and youtube.

...where I assisted students in academic writing. By far one of the most rewarding milestones of tutoring is the moment you witness the student satisfied with the achievements you have helped them accomplish. Tutoring is a collaborative process whereby tutor and student work towards a common goal of academic success and achievement. I enjoy tutoring in ESL, Chinese, Writing, and beginner Japanese. Aside from tutoring, I am a musically inclined individual who dabbles in a...

...my studies. Having learned through past teaching experience that no two students think exactly alike, I facilitate learning by developing methods that cater to a student's personal learning style. I aim to make the learning experience feel less like a chore and more like an opportunity for self-improvement. Outside of tutoring, I indulge my addiction to crossword puzzles and enjoy foreign language studies and practicing guitar in my spare time. I believe that self-improvement, whether...

...college, I spent two semesters in Kyoto, Japan, where I participated in an intensive language and emersion program. During my undergraduate years I tutored students for three semesters and saw how I could gently encourage making the subject “one’s own” in a friendly, supportive way. I’m patient and flexible when it comes to changing my approach based on a student’s particular learning needs. Rather than simply showing my method for solutions, I make note of...

...pre-research for my Phd. Dual J.D. Program, so as to most efficiently attain the post graduate degrees which will assist in my ultimate goals. So, just like you, I am a learner -- and will be one for the rest of my life. So, to all those who took the time to read my personal statement, I thank you and hope to hear from you soon! But even if I never do, I wish you...

...the University of California - Santa Barbara. I have spent a year in Japan and a year and a half in Guatemala. I have had poetry and short stories (fiction and nonfiction) published in several online magazines. Besides reading, writing, and studying foreign languages, I enjoy kayaking, biking, yoga, and dance. You can also find me at ethnic restaurants and bistros all over the Milwaukee area or in a local theater or cinema enjoying a...

I recently moved to D.C. after graduating from Brown University with a B.S. in Chemical Biology. While in college, I had the opportunity to become a teaching assistant for both introductory and upper-level biochemistry courses, which I truly enjoyed. By using the insights I have gained through my experience as a teaching assistant, I would love to help students out by facilitating their learning process. I look forward to hearing from and meeting you!

...are struggling in before helping them with quantitative problems. For example, rather than simply telling my calculus students the formula for integration by parts, I first show them how it is derived so they acquire a good grasp of how it operates. Outside of school, I really enjoy being involved with music. I love singing, playing the drums, piano, and guitar. My favorite genre of music is rock, so playing rock songs with a band...

...and I am currently working for an alternative investment strategies company as well as a full time graduate student at NYU studying real estate investing and financing. I graduated from Marist College with a Bachelor of Science in finance. I started tutoring and helping others during high school. Then upon starting college, I became a tutor for languages, mathematics, and most business classes. In my free time, I play the piano, take pictures and play...
