Bio:

My teaching methodology:
My approach is to teach you Japanese based on "your individual goals" and "the type of learner you are" because different strokes for different folks, and everyone learns differently. I would like my students to have a good time while they rack their brains, so I plan to use a variety of methods.
Generally, it will include conversation, reading comprehension, pronunciation and grammar drills. The materials used also reflect the student's interests and specific needs. I like to bring in different topics: literature, movies, music, manga, food, outdoors, travel and so on.
I will also use some PDF files and internet links to supplement lessons. I can set homework as needed.
