Minori.Y Tutor Profile

日本語
Hello!
I'm Minori and I'm a dancer, a singer, and a choreographer!

I was born and raised in Kanagawa Prefecture and in university, I studied musical theatre and dance in Nebraska State in the U.S. While studying abroad, I participated as a performer in school performances and professional theatrical plays. I taught co-actors some dance moves in English and I was involved in many performances as a performer in the U.S.! I've returned to Japan now and I teach singing and dancing. I lived in the States for about 7 years.
Please read the information below to see my past experiences!

ーFirstー
You want to try singing or dancing! You want to enjoy learning as if you're doing an exercise!
You want to improve your English pronunciation! You want to learn authentic English so you can enjoy your trips overseas more! You want to learn English through singing or dancing!
You're all welcome! Regardless of your level or age, I'll customize the lesson based on your needs and I hope we can enjoy learning together!
Please feel free to contact me and try the trial lesson!

ーWhat kind of lesson?ー
Regardless of your age, this is a lesson for dance beginners, for people who wan to learn singing, and for amateur singers.
This is a lesson for beginner English learners only.

I offer lessons according to each student's wishes and goals!
The reason why I can continue dancing, singing, and English is simple. Because it's fun!
My teachers and my friends taught me some important lessons, such as
”The happiness when you achieve your goal”
”This is a sign of your growth”
”Don't be afraid to fail”.
I believe there's something in common when learning a language. Through English, I'm happy to learn about the cultures of other countries and my values have gradually changed.

The main purpose of the lesson is for the students to experience these feelings and to spend a meaningful time together!



ーTeaching Experienceー
＜Dancing＞
・I belonged to the gymnastics team for 13 years and during which I taught kids for 2 years.
・During the time when I studied abroad (Jazz, modern, hip hop, musical theatre, and Yosakoi), I taught dance in both English and Japanese when I was with the professional theatrical group and the dance classes.
＊I also offer suggestions for choreography.

＜Singing, Vocal＞
・I learned vocal singing (soprano) in university and I taught voice training and pronunciation (English, French, German, and Italian).
・As I was particularly focused on musical theatre, I taught Japanese people English pronunciation and the way to portray the characters.

＜English＞
・During the 7 years when I studied abroad, I had the opportunity to teach English to Japanese and Korean people who also studied abroad at the same school.
・I taught Japanese to my American friends.
・When I taught dancing during the dance classes or during the theatrical plays, I taught everything in English.
