Award-Winning Japanese Tutors in Prospect Heights, IL

I am a very passionate learner and I would be delighted to share that love for learning to other students.

...I also have experience dealing with situations in which students are not quickly or readily grasping concepts, and I have developed the patience to handle these situations.
