About Lessons by June

Hi, my name is June. I am a full-time tutor. I have over 20 years of experience as a classroom instructor and as an online tutor in various subjects. I am very patient and work well with children and adult students as well. I have a Master's degree in Psychology. I use principles of human’s learning behavior, cognitive process, and memory mechanism in teaching and creating a curriculum. My teaching style depends on the student. In other words, I change my teaching techniques to fit the level and personality of each student. I enjoy teaching. It makes me happy to see my students understand the material, improve their grades and pass their exams, or be able to apply their new knowledge to accomplish their goals. ■ Lesson Subjects■ I offer JAPANESE lessons and MATH lessons. ● Japanese - Basic, intermediate, and advanced levels of Japanese - Speaking, listening, and writing Japanese - Preparation for the JLPT exam (N1, N2, N3, N4, and N5) - Japanese for traveling - Japanese for working in Japan - Japanese for anime/manga - Japanese/English translation - Japanese culture - Japanese Conversation Sessions (Please see at the end of my profile section.) ● Math - Pre-Algebra - Algebra 1, Algebra 2 - College Algebra - Pre-Calculus, Calculus - SAT/ACT (only Math) - GED (only Math) - GRE (only Math/Quantitative) - ASVAB (only Math and Arithmetic) If you have any questions or concerns before hiring me, please feel free to contact me. Thank you! June For Japanese Learners: ◆Japanese Conversation Session◆ Conversation Sessions are available for students who want to practice their Japanese by talking to native Japanese speakers. I myself will also stay on Zoom during the session to monitor and guide through the conversation, provide vocabulary, or explain phrases as necessary. Please let me know during our first meeting if you're interested in this opportunity.

June was quick to respond and pleasant to communicate with. We had already found in person help so we didn’t actually have a session. Great otherwise

Christine S.Oct 2026

June is an excellent tutor. She took the time to explore why I wanted to learn Japanese, and adapted her lesson plans to my needs. She is a warm and patient tutor, which is much appreciated when one is struggling with a new language. She has a positive and encouraging approach, and quickly put me at ease practicing Japanese with her. She is also methodical and well-organized so every minute of the lesson was productive. I highly recommend June!

June has been great for my 14yo freshman that was struggling in Honors Geometry. She was failing and felt she was not getting the help she needed in class from her teacher. After just couple lessons with June she has become an A student! Will definitely use June with any future math issues my daughter might have. Thank you June for your patience and time you have spent with her!

June is great, very professional and very kind

Gabrielle J.Oct 2025

I have loved my lessons with June. She is extremely professional, kind, patient, and attentive. I have already learned so much just after two tutoring sessions. I would highly recommend taking lessons with June if you are looking for a tutor who listens, guides, and teaches very well! 10/10 experience.

Taylor D.Oct 2025

June is truly an outstanding math tutor! She explains even the most challenging problems with patience, clarity, and step-by-step guidance that makes everything easier to understand. Her teaching style is so encouraging and supportive, which builds confidence while also strengthening problem-solving skills. What sets June apart is how she adapts her explanations to match different learning styles. She never rushes, always makes sure that the material "clicks", and provides practical strategies that can be applied to homework, exams, and real-world problem solving. Thanks to her help, math feels less intimidating and much more approachable. I couldn't recommend June more highly-she's an excellent tutor who truly cares about her students success!

🌸✨ Uwahhh!! Where do I even start?! ✨🌸 I absolutely adore June ^_^ <3 From the very beginning, her lessons felt special, valuable, and tailored exactly to what I needed. We speak Japanese throughout our lessons (which I love!), and she always checks in to make sure the learning style and focus are working for me. Having taught music for 13yrs+, I know the value of a flexible and compassionate teacher. Out of all the teachers I tried, June really stood out. She offers opportunities to talk with others who are fluent in Japanese, and will mediate if there's any miss understandings (which I think is a huge perk!). Even after becoming fluent she helps you maintain fluency =D She has an excellent grasp of English as well, which makes it so much easier to dive into nuanced or complex discussions about grammar, culture, or even abstract ideas. She’s very thorough, wonderfully responsive, and always creates a safe, encouraging space for growth. My goal is to speak fluent Japanese before my trip next year. June and I meet twice a week for an hour at a time. If I could meet with her daily, I absolutely would! I've been able to add Japanese now in my songwriting and it's the COOLEST thing ever! Not only is June a Japanese native speaker, she is also very professional, youthful, compassionate, thorough and flexible. 100% recommend!!!

Rosa C.May 2025

Sensei June is AMAZING! She is patient, sweet, very diligent, organized and always listens to your concerns. I recommend her 1000% I am learning Japanese faster than I expected it. If you take her classes you won’t be disappointed.

Priya P.Apr 2025

June has been an incredible tutor for our daughter in Geometry Honors. When we started, she was struggling with C’s and D’s—now she’s earning an A-. June is always on time, professional, and has a gift for breaking down concepts and tailoring lessons to how each child learns best. Highly recommend!

James R.Apr 2025

June is an exceptional teacher and mentor. Her patience, lesson planning and explanations are preparing me well for my upcoming family trip to Japan. It’s obvious why she is top rated! たけうしせんせいはありがとございます!

Janiqua S.Mar 2025

June is pretty amazing and makes sure you understands before moving on to the next thing! She is also affordable!

Claudia G.Feb 2025

I am so glad we found June. My son needed help with Algebra and ACT Math and June has been huge help. She is very kind and knowledgeable, my son is so happy and grateful to have her help. I highly recommend her.

Kristin A.Jan 2025

June is responsive and shows up on time. She explains problems in a way you can understand she is very easy to talk to and ask questions. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing tutoring.

Gianna D.Sep 2024

June is a great tutor. She does a great job of breaking down the material step by step, which really helped me understand the concepts better. I recommend her as a tutor for anyone who needs help with math!

April F.Aug 2024

June was very flexible and adaptable to what the students needed on a weekly basis in the learning process. She frequently asked for feedback and if there were any questions to ensure that the kids understood the material before moving on. The introduction of new/more challenging material while reviewing previous material was perfect for my students! She was also great at encouraging some of my more introverted teen students to contribute to the conversation :).

JD S.Jun 2024

June-sensei has provided me a very flexible, adaptable way of learning Japanese that helps me make the progress I was yearning for. Her solid grasp on both English and Japanese makes it very easy to understand her and communicate. I am also certain she has all the knowledge and care to assist beginners along their journey and bolster their confidence in the language. Learning from her has always been a very pleasant experience.

Gisselle A.Jun 2024

June has changed the game for me! In 2 weeks I've learned more, I'm making connections, and speaking so much more than I was with 2 years of on and off Japanese lessons and self study. She is targeted and tailors lessons to what you need which is super helpful! I feel confident I'll be prepared for my trip to Japan in October. Take the jump and hire June! You won't regret it!

Olasoji O.May 2022

Working with June was a great experience for me. I haven’t taken a math course in over 15 years and she was able to teach me concepts of math that I had forgotten over the years. She is great at explaining the rules and is very patient. I definitely recommend her as a tutor.

Claire O.May 2022

My son is 13 and started to get passionate about anime and everything linked to Japan. He asked for Japanese class. We decided to try in order to show him our support. Tom got really into it and love his lessons and wants to learn more and more about Japanese culture and really wants to start talking fluently. June is an exceptional teacher. She is very responsive and adapt her work to Tom’s interest. She’s always kind and mindful with us too. I recommend June +++
