For me, classes in the university are pretty easy, so in addition to school homework, I practice C++ and problem-solving skill by myself.

...students, I first test their level of proficiency, then ask what they would like to learn before the end of their teaching or tutoring sessions with me. I employ creative activities to engage my students and employ the use of educational videos for students to be given an understanding of the different aspects of Japanese culture.
