Experience
Hello, my name is Juri Love. I am interested in becoming one of your tutor at Varsity Tutors. I am originally from Chiba, Japan. I worked in Tokyo until age 22 and came to Boston. I have been living in Boston ever since. When I was in Tokyo I was working at 5 stars hotel called Hotel Okura where I was an operator speaking both English and Japanese. They have really trained the most polite customer service in both Japanese and English. It is my JOY to teach Japanese! I first came to America (near Seattle in WA) when I was 18 as an exchange student. I remember how challenging it was for me to speak with native English speakers and I have lots of patient and compassion in learning new language because of that experience. I run Not for Profit Organization as a president/found in the past 12 years teaching music in juvenile detention centers in Boston area. I have learned lots of creative teaching methods to difficult population as well. I feel confident and comfortable teaching in general. In fact I have been teaching piano for the past 13years also. I am friendly, flexible and creative tutor. I can cater whatever student desires to learn and I am right there with them in learning Japanese. One example, I had a student who went to Japan for a year when she was 15. I was tutoring her Japanese and she told me lots of phrases that I taught her were very useful when she got to Japan since I know real Japanese communication style not from the text book. I can not only teach Japanese but our expectation as Japanese when you speak the language . I am very excited about this opportunity. Looking forward to hearing from you.
