Summary

As a Japanese teacher's assistant in various countries, I used my background in early childhood education to help students of all ages learn Japanese. MiraCosta offers an Associate Degree in Japanese, and I have been assisting students for the last five years with all of the classes required for the Associate Degree. Therefore, I am familiar with all of the lessons and assignments in all of the courses and as a result, I have the experience and knowledge equivalent to an associate's degree in Japanese. Additionally, I am familiar with online classes as I have spent much of my time communicating with students via ZOOM and Discord.As a canvas aid, I am always ready to work seriously with students and help them broaden their horizons by exposing them to other cultures through language.
