I had studied Japanese as a minor during my undergraduate studies for three years. I was also a student teacher my second year of learning. I participated in table discussions, in which Japanese stude... nts studying abroad in the U.S. would hold conversations with language learners. I have continued my studies independently along with my legal studies. I am well versed in the Genki books, as well as using Tobira for more advanced learning, as well as kanji writing and comprehension practice. read more

Hello! My name is Tianna. I was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, and I am currently attending the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law for my Juris Doctorate. My hope is to become a... practicing lawyer in international law, or probate law. I love to read. Reading has always been one of my favorite things to do in my down time, thanks to my mom always reading to me as a child. This also made English my favorite subject in school, including taking an accelerated writing course in the 4th grade. I also loved taking AP literature and AP language in High school My favorite genre is mystery thrillers, but I do love reading fantasy, and sci-fi every once in a while. With my love of reading, also comes from my love of writing. I'm always coming up with different ideas for a new story that I like to write down in a notebook, sketch out, or type out on a google/slash word document. I also love drawing, knitting and crocheting, singing, anime, and collecting model horses. My goal as a tutor, is to help students better understand their assignments, or what a certain book is trying to tell them with motif, syntax, and other forms of writing methods that develop a deeper meaning to the story itself. I also want to help students develop their writing skills through the use of creative writing, as writing research papers and book reports aren't the only way to teach grammar. Please feel free to reach out and ask me any follow up questions. I hope to hear from you soon!read more
