Ken D.
Tutoring near Glen Waverley, Melbourne, VIC


About

Are you looking for a private VCE tutor who can help you achieve academic success? I'm here to help! My name is Ken, and I'm a native Japanese speaker who has a deep understanding of the VCE curriculum. I live in Glen Waverley and offer personalised tutoring to students who need extra help. I primarily tutor Japanese Second Language VCE for unit ½ and ¾, but I can tutor and give advice for math (Method, Further, Specialist) and science (Biology, Chemistry), as I'm studying Engineering and Science at Monash University. My lesson is heavily focused on reviewing writing, practicing reading, and training for listening. I expect basic content to be covered by the school, but it's all good if you need extra help to go through content or ask any other questions. Send one or two Japanese writings you have done. I will send the feedback for the writing for free, and we could discuss possible arrangements for the lesson. 私の授業は作文、リーディング、リスニングの練習を中心に進めます。 上手くなるためには質問する事が必要です。そして、この授業は学校で学んでいることの支えとして考えてください。 自分で書いた作文を二枚程度送ってください。そのあと、私が作文のフィードバックと授業について話します。 Experience I have graduated from the Melbourne International School of Japanese and worked as a teaching assistant at it. Futhermore, I've been translating works between English and Japanese in my free time. I have lived my childhood in Japan, and spent many years teaching Japanese casually during Secondary as well.
