English, Japanese, American Indian Studies Tutor and Much More!

Hello, my name is Robert, and I believe I can help you.

As a Phoenix College alumni, I pride myself on working with current students in or around the Phoenix metropolitan area and Arizona at large. While still pursuing my graduate degree, I have received certificates in American Indian Studies, International Studies, and International Languages while I finish my degree in International letters and cultures. I specialize in English language and literature, Japanese language and literature, American Indian Studies, and Arizona Studies (geology, geography, anthropology, and general history).

Aside from traditional academic subjects, I also instruct in Boxing, Kickboxing, and Judo. Currently, I also serve as the president of the Phoenix College Judo Club where I assist in the instruction of Judo, Jiu-jitsu, Kickboxing, Boxing and general self defense.

I favor a in-depth teaching method that ensures my students understand the subject as well as I myself do. I am both stern on the standards which I enforce, but also flexible and cognoscente of any unique circumstances, special needs or differing methods of inclined learning.
