...anthropology, I spent a total of over five more years living and teaching in Japan. By my third year in Japan, after much independent study of Japanese history, culture, and language, the Japan University of Economics, where I had been teaching English, asked me to teach Japanese history to the foreign students at the university. I also published an article in a Japanese academic journal on the philosophy of language written in the Japanese language,...

...that love to others. I tutored each level of the Japanese program at the university, so I am well equipped in understanding the needs of university level Japanese courses.

Outside of academics, I enjoy playing the Guitar, Photography, and playing Badminton.

Hi! I'm Rachel. I have a pretty relaxed teaching style and adapt well to all kinds of students. I really aim for students to understand concepts rather than make great test scores. However, great test scores are a good side effect of understanding concepts better.

...Japanese and linguistics. While languages and language itself are my first love, I enjoy working in a variety of other subjects as well. As a student and a teacher, I prefer working from the fundamentals to memorizing facts; I feel that understanding how and why something works is a more interesting and effective method, and helps nurture critical thinking, an essential life skill. I look forward to helping students work towards reaching their full potential....

In my spare time, I enjoy running, reading novels, baking (and eating) bread, and spending time with friends over coffee.... I believe...

I’ve always gravitated towards math and came to appreciate it as a language all of its own. Awareness of math as an invaluable tool came to me later, after I’d developed a strong interest in physics and astronomy, fields that rely on math heavily. I’ve also taken the time to nurture my passion for the...

...As Rudolf Dreikurs said, “The development of a child's potential depends on the ability of the teacher to perceive the child's possibilities, to stimulate the child to learn, and thereby make the child's latent potentiality a reality.” When I taught elementary school in Korea, it quickly became apparent that Korean students were not being taught to question and think for themselves. Students in Korea were taught to memorize information. They were not taught how to...

...currently tutor. With 4th grade students and with college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students learn, so that...

...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 love interacting with my students and helping them directly, and I love seeing students meet their learning goals. When I'm not teaching or tutoring, I enjoy singing karaoke, hiking, traveling, photography, and learning languages (currently working on Spanish!)
