Mayumi L.
Private tutor in Wahiawā, HI
Education
I've achieved a Masters in Social Work (2011), and a B.A. in Communication (2002). I've worked in Japan (as an English Teacher), and have studied in France, Italy, and New Zealand. I possess a great love of languages and fascination for the social sciences, for intercultural communication, and for metaphysics too. I love to share my travels and inspire young people to learn more about the world and its people.
Experience
I tutor children, teens, and young adults from primary school through middle school, and some high school and undergraduate subjects. I realize learning is just as much about motivation, internal discipline, and real-world application as it is about memorizing information and passing examinations. My interest in tutoring comes from a desire to be more involved in my community and the next generation, to whom I hope to pass on my love of learning. I have a background in counseling (through social work) which helps me form a good rapport with others.
