Martina

Hello, my name is Martina and I am currently a PhD student (Japanese studies).
I have obtained a BA in Japanese Language and Culture, and an MA in Japanese Language and Politics. During University, I went in Japan over the summer for an intense langauge course and homestay, and I studied as an exchange student at Kochi Women University. In 2013 I went to the Shizuoka prefecture to work as a teacher. As I was one of the few foreigners living in the area, I notably improved my Japanese and I am now fluent in speaking, reading and writing, as proved by the acquisiton of JLPT2. I am now doing research on Japanese law and society.

Availability: I`m available most mornings/afternoons and weekends.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: BA Japanese Language and Culture
MA Japanese Studies
MA Crime,Law and Society
Currently doing a PhD in Japanese law and society

I`ve been tutoring since University, and I spent the last two years in Japan as a teacher, so I have plenty of teaching experience with children and adults. I have always enjoyed teaching, and that is why I wish to work as a tutor while studying for my PhD, and to become a teacher in the future.
I studied Japanese for many years, therefore I know what difficulties students have to go through to effectively learn the language as a foreign person.
I can tutor students who want to learn Japanese, or Italian.
