"Konnichi wa! I have been teaching Japanese at the college level for 20+ years, with extensive experience at the first and second-year levels. I started learning Japanese at age 15, so I understand the challenges that adults face when trying to wrap their English-speaking brains around crazy Japanese grammar! I explain grammar clearly, so my students can quickly comprehend the patterns and use them in real-life communication. I have prepared PowerPoint slides over all of the grammar patterns in Volumes I and II of the Genki textbook series. When I work with students on Wyzant, I design a customized study plan utilizing the materials I've created for my college courses."
