Personal Description:
Having lived and worked in Japan for seven years, I have gained not only a fluency in the Japanese language but also an awareness and appreciation of the subtleties of Japanese culture. I love the Japanese people and enjoy teaching about their language and culture. My recently obtained doctorate studies the values and perspectives of contemporary Japanese university students. I am also fluent in German and spent a year living in Germany during my university years. I have a great affinity with Germany and the German people and have several German friends that I am still in touch with even 20 years after living there. Prior to teaching languages my most recent employment involved using my German and Japanese languages on the telephone and composing emails on a daily basis. My French is proficient and I am pleased to have been able to help my French GCSE students improve on their predicted grades.
Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching languages (Japanese, German, French, and English as a Foreign Language) in private, bespoke lessons since 2011. I have taught students at all levels of ability, from absolute beginners, through GCSE, A level and even university undergraduate level. Prior to this, whilst living in Japan (1999-2006), I gained extensive experience teaching Japanese and English as a Foreign Language to various groups of non-native speakers ranging from private lessons, to joint lessons, to groups of primary school, high school and university students.
Teaching Approach:
My students appreciate my enthusiasm and love of languages. I aim to inspire my students by making lessons fun and relevant. The text book is merely a tool that I use to facilitate conversation and help students make the language their own. I offer tutoring online for clients planning a trip to Japan, or for preparation towards GCSE, A' Level or university level German and Japanese, and to GCSE level in French.

From David (/5): On our first meeting, Jackie listened carefully to my previous experience in the topic and was able to quickly pull up some material at the right level which helped me remember what I had already covered but also give me new things to learn.

I hope to continue my learning over the coming months to fulfill my long term goal of living in Germany with family and many friends I have made over the years. I still have a long way to go and combined with my learning with Jackie and my frequent trips to the country I feel as though I can do it!
