Dear JLT Participant,
Thank you for your participation in the Japanese Language Tutor
Program during the fall semester. I have begun assembling a tentative list
of community members who would like to be involved in the program
this spring, and before I allow in new community students, I would like to
know if you are interested in continuing the program. Please let me know
so I can reserve a space for you!
If you would like to continue, you will need to complete and submit the
application forms again, as your contact information may have changed
and you may want to reassess your interests and goals.
Please find included our Tutee Application Form, Student Interest Form
and Program Policy. To enroll in the Japanese Language Tutor Program,
review the Program Policy and fill out & return the Tutee Application
Form and Student Interest Form to the TIUA office. The spring session of
tutoring will begin shortly, so please submit your application by
Wednesday, March 9th.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact our office. You can reach us
Monday through Friday, 9am until 5pm at (503)373-3300 or anytime via e-
