"Hello! My name is Christina, and I am passionate about helping students learn Japanese, mathematics, coding, and music in a way that is both effective and enjoyable. I am currently studying Applied Mathematics and Informatics at the University of Washington. I have extensive experience with Japanese, having attended Hawaii Japanese School for 11 years using the same textbooks as students in Japan. I also achieved a score of 5 on the AP Japanese Test in high school and earned the Seal of Biliteracy for Japanese proficiency.

I began teaching Japanese, math, and saxophone to peers in elementary school and have since worked with students of various ages, from middle school to high school, in settings including one-on-one tutoring, small group sessions, and volunteer study programs.

My approach focuses on building confidence, adapting lessons to each student’s needs, and fostering a supportive learning environment. With my combined educational background and years of tutoring experience, I am confident in my ability to help students strengthen their Japanese reading, writing, and speaking skills, as well as master math concepts, all while making the learning process enjoyable and rewarding." less...
