I have taught both business people and students for more than ten years in six different countries, Japan, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Finland, and the U.S. Those experiences have given me a deep understanding of the uniqueness of each culture as well as the differences of languages that often impede learning Japanese.

I am coding most of the time and love to share my experience with other. I have been teaching Java at a high school in California. As I interact with students on a regular basis, I feel they are more comfortable understanding the concepts first than jumping on to practice coding directly. I mainly focus on the basic concepts as well as on the lab work. Besides this, I am a strong believer of encouraging girls to learn more about Computer Science. If you look at any computer science class, ... Read more

Contract screenwriter. Published author. Graphic novelist. Forensics instructor. Enough about me. This is about YOU. And, yes, I really do care. Creativity isn't a vague concept too abstract to understand. Writing is about finding, developing and sharing your "voice". Bold and atypical -- but justified -- choices win. Impactful teachers demystify the process. Our sessions are like coffee talk with a friend: loose and flexible to understand individual needs yet highly effective. One ... Read more

After parents, I believe teachers have the greatest influence to shape the lives and the future of their students. Education is empowerment and my goal is to have my students believe and achieve this lifelong empowerment. I often share the story of my humble beginnings in rural India with students when I’d have to walk several miles a day to go to the nearest school and how, that early education opened my eyes to the world in ways I could never have imagined, The commitment to learn led me to...
