Japanese native speaker who lives in Vancouver for 5 years. Bachelor's degree in History and currently in UBC BEd 11-month Teacher education program, studying to become a Social Studies teacher.
Bachelor's degree in History at UBC. Graduated from IB school.
Have teaching experience with youth for 4 years including, kindergarten teaching assistant (volunteer), IB Japanese tutor, G4 English tutor. Experience in teaching Law 12, Physical Geography 12, and Socials 9 as Teacher Candidate. Created teaching resources (applicable from G8~12) that use Beaty Biodiversity Museum Collection Database.
For younger kids, my aim is to facilitate their learning. Therefore, I will keep the content delivering to minimum and spend more time, doing some fun activities or worksheet related to the content together.
For older youth, the content which I'm providing will become more complex and require analytical and historical thinking skills. In addition to providing some critical thinking questions and judgmental questions, I will also teach source analysis to use as evidence to support their argument.
For now, only weekends. Saturday or Sunday, from 9 to 16.
Online tutoring through zoom is the most preferable.
