After returning from Japan, I had the opportunity to move to China for...

...for two years before I came back to the States and earned a bachelor's degree in Japanese from BYU, and am currently working towards a master's in education at UVU. I tutor Japanese primarily, and it's my favorite subject to teach. My main philosophy when it comes to language learning is that everybody has a reason they're studying, and to help them fulfil that reason. Along with that, there are many routes to achieve that...

...like to consume Japanese media (games, novels, movies) that I buy on my trips there, act, and practice martial arts.

I like spending more time to get to know my students to better understand how to...
