Experienced Beginner Japanese and Elementary Reading Tutor
- $35 / h
- Durham , North Carolina ( 27704 )
- 0 miles
I'm Zhane and I graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design and Japanese. I have always been an artist at heart and work to incorporate as much imagery into my tutoring style as possible. I personally had trouble learning in school and only did my best when more than one of my senses were being engaged. This was only possible when teachers listened to my troubles and adapted to help as best as they could. I felt more secure and confident that I could succeed. I want t... Read more

- Durham , North Carolina ( 27705 )
- 15 miles
Qualified by degree(s), certifications, and experience to tutor from elementary to high school, I have taught and tutored a broad range of subjects. In love with learning, my happiest moments in my teaching career were those when I heard "Oh, I get it!" Yes, I heard those words often. My gifts included the organized sequencing of instruction, the presentation, and the assessment of understanding. Very early in my career I identified those almost universal instructional mistakes that ... Read more
