Award-Winning Japanese Tutors in Washington DC

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!

...about tutoring is figuring out what makes them tick so I can come up with appropriate examples. When I have time, I am a huge fan of traveling and skiing. I think traveling is a great way to both discover new places and reflect on where I'm from, and skiing speaks for itself whether in California, Japan, Austria, or Switzerland. Of course, I can't be on the road all the time, so for the 95%...

...STEM camp. I have always been drawn to teaching because I find it intellectually stimulating and rewarding, and it also allows me to positively influence an individual and to contribute to my community.

I feel that as a teacher/tutor it is my job...

...tutored various subjects all four years in college, specializing in all Sciences and Spanish. In my experience tutoring these subjects, my goal has always been to explain to my students why you get to your answers rather than how you get there. For each student I tutor, I do my best to tailor my planning and strategies based on each student because everyone's needs are different from one another. In my spare time, I enjoy...

...tutoring high school students outside of class in college and involved in STEM 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...

My goal is to help other students learn. Not only will I help you learn the material you want to cover, I will also help you discover and develop learning strategies that work for you.... My goal is to help students build the skills they need to learn, understand, and retain what they are taught. My job as a tutor is not to tell the student all the answers but rather to guide them as they learn.
