IB Japanese Tutors

Japanese IB tutoring involves providing educational support and guidance to students studying for their International Baccalaureate (IB) qualification in the Japanese language. The International Baccalaureate (IB) is an internationally recognized educational program for students. The IB Diploma Program (IBDP) is one of the most common tracks within the IB framework. The IB system has three divisions; the Primary Years Programme (PYP) is a curriculum framework designed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students aged 3 to 12 years old (preschool to grade 5). The PYP curriculum is inquiry-based, emphasizing conceptual learning, where children are encouraged to ask questions, reflect on their knowledge, and take responsibility for their learning. MYP stands for Middle Years Programme in the International Baccalaureate (IB) education system. It is a 5-year program in schools. It aims to prepare students for the Diploma Programme (DP), the final stage of IB education for students aged 16-19. Japanese is offered as a Group 2 Language B subject within the IB Diploma Program. It is designed to develop student's language skills and intercultural understanding. The course aims to enhance students' proficiency in speaking, listening, reading, and writing in Japanese and deepen their knowledge of Japanese culture and society. IB Japanese tutoring involves personalized instruction and practice to help students achieve success in the IB Japanese course. Tutors work closely with students to improve their language skills, build vocabulary, strengthen grammar usage, and enhance cultural awareness. They may use various teaching methods, such as conversation practice, listening exercises, reading comprehension, and writing tasks, to support students in becoming proficient in Japanese. Tutors may provide additional study materials, practice exams, and feedback to help students perform well in these assessments and earn a favorable score in IB Japanese.

Doctorate in Japanese Literature

Experience

I have been studying and teaching the Japanese language for more than 35 years. I have specialized in a wide range of famous literature from Japan and know a lot and have a lot of experience in this field. Over the years, I have spent much time and effort studying the history of language by reading old and new Japanese literature. People in the academic community have recognized and appreciated my work on the subject and allowed me to share my research at several conferences around the world. 

Tutoring Approach

I believe that the best way to learn a language is by studying its stories. Students are given important texts, short stories, and modern novels to help them learn about language patterns, cultural settings, and translation. I often stress the importance of understanding the situation so that students can not only learn the language but also truly experience it.

It was a pleasure to work with Yan. Very welcoming and he always have a good mood. I really enjoy our lessons together, and I would definitely suggest that you book some sessions

Sophia

What a great first lesson! I think Yau Chung will help me reach my goals of speaking more naturally and improving my Japanese. Everyone in my family is seeing how I am improving my Japanese skills. I would recommend her to everyone looking for a Japanese teacher. Really good one.

Daniel

I have nothing but respect for Mr. Chung's ability, but I really wish that, in addition to the literature, we had also covered more common Japanese learning skills.

Experience

I have taught Japanese for more than ten years and have gained a deep understanding of its cultural context. I have traveled to different parts of Japan for work and noticed how the local customs and traditions influence the language. I tell my students about the real-life stories, experiences, and things I learned while I was in Japan. This method helps learners understand the bigger picture of what they are studying, which is important for understanding a language.

Tutoring Approach

When I teach Japanese, I use a comprehensive approach. We will work on grammar and vocabulary and explore Japanese films, songs, and literature. When students understand the connection between language and culture, it becomes easier for them to remember and use what they have learned. Also, learning a language becomes more enjoyable and interesting when you can connect it to stories, songs, and movies!

Tristan

My Japanese tutor is friendly, but I'm struggling with the lessons. He uses a lot of Japanese during class, and I find it hard to follow. I need more explanations in English to understand. I hope he can adapt the lessons to suit different learning styles.

Farid

Ms. Chiu is knowledgeable, but I felt we went off-topic too often. Needed more direct language practice.

Mikaela

Ms. Chiu’s classes always have a fresh perspective. It's great having Mok as a teacher because I can practice speaking each sentence properly and learn new words that I can use when I have free time. It's really enjoyable.

Master's in Japanese Linguistics

Experience

For more than ten years, I have spent much time and effort studying the structure and workings of the Japanese language. I have been studying the grammar, different dialects, and how modern slang has influenced the development of Japanese. I have been lucky to help students of different levels, from beginners to more advanced, to understand and learn the language.

Tutoring Approach

I base my approach on understanding the basic language structures of Japanese. I use different resources, like textbooks and magazines, to teach my students the language differently. To have a good learning experience, practicing regularly and trying out different dialects is important.

I started because I wanted to improve my Japanese, but I wasn't ready for how good the lessons would be. Besides being a great teacher, To On is also friendly, fun, and easy to talk to. I really suggest him!

Ray

Such a kind teacher. It has been a long time since I spoke Japanese, and I'm really worried. To On led me slowly and made me feel at ease. We have fun acting out parts. I'm motivated to keep taking lessons, and I hope that one day I can speak perfectly. I'm excited for my next class with him.

Master's in Japanese Linguistics

Experience

I have been teaching the Japanese language for ten years, focusing on its linguistic aspects. I love to analyze the grammar, sounds, and structure of language to make learning easy and natural. Over time, I have taught workshops, training sessions, and interactive lessons to different types of learners, including those who are just starting and those who are more advanced. I have worked hard and traveled to different places in Japan to study and collect data.

Tutoring Approach

My way of tutoring involves using a mix of organized lessons and engaging activities. I help students understand important ideas and grammar and teach them how to use the language in real-life situations by having conversations, doing listening activities, and acting out different roles. For me, language is not just words. It's also about understanding how it sounds and flows. I think this is very helpful in becoming good at it.

Experience

In my nine years as a teacher, I have focused on Japanese culture and literature to help students learn more than just the language. Reading traditional stories and modern fiction in Japanese can help you understand how the Japanese language started and evolved.

Tutoring Approach

I believe it's important to include literature in my teaching methods. Language and literature are closely connected. So, when I teach, I spend a lot of time reading out loud from different Japanese books. These books can be old or new and are popular among people. Students can learn grammar and vocabulary in a specific context, which makes the process fun and educational.
