Mrs. Fujie Learning Club
About
I am a credentialed teacher currently teaching in Glendale USD. I have worked with children ages 0-10 for almost 20 years. I have a masters in Educational Psychology and bachelors in Psychology and a minor in Early Childhood Education. I teach all subjects and am fluent in Japanese. I enjoy teaching using fun methods for the student to truly learn (and remember, make sense of, and utilize)!
I enjoy being able to individualize the lesson and curriculum to be able to really target the child's needs and interest and watch them really flourish!
My life has always been about children and teaching. My experience ranges from several years of babysitting, 4 years of being a summer camp counselor, few years of tutoring during the summer, and teaching as a credentialed teacher for 15 years.
At my current school, I have received 3 awards over the last 8 years: Very Special Person award (PTA), Masonic award (local Masonic center), and Outstanding Teacher award (PTA).

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I take one session to get to know the student and have them get to know me to understand what and why they have a need or struggles in a particular area. I will give a quick assessment for a short, formal assessment.
in the following weeks, there will be follow up assessments to determine their progress and change in the lesson if needed.

I am a full time elementary teacher, currently teaching in a Japanese dual immersion class. I have the knowledge and experience of working with English learners, and students learning English or other language as second language.

Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I enjoyed spending time in the snow with my family. We sledded, picnicked in the car, and had hot cocoa. It was so much fun because I don't always have time to spend with my family and the snow was a new thing for my baby daughter.

Why do I need to improve in this particular subject/skill? How will this knowledge benefit me in the future? What are my strengths/interests?
