Let Us Take A Look Into The Variety Of Asian Religions Together!

Over the course of my college career I was devoted to learning about how religion manifests within Asia. So many things seem to be philosophies rather than religions- is there a difference? Let us learn about it together!
I have taken over 10 religious studies courses of my own volition, and have tutored religious studies to several college students after gaining my degree. I can break Hinduism down- what is atman? Who are the gods? Are there several sects? Who was important to the movement of religious tolerance in India? How has this affected the development of the country? I can explain the spread of Buddhism as well as the messages behind it. I plan to explain the story of Siddhartha and how it caused a ripple effect. Taoism, Shintoism, Islam and folklore will be delved into. The growth of Christianity within Korea, and China may also be explored if the student finds interest in the topic. My main concern is to explain religions across Japan, Korea, China, and India, but that is not to say that the religions have not touched the entire world. This is through the lens of Asia, but it can be applied to understand religious growth within the U.S. as well.
No question is too small, let us conquer one of the hardest concepts together!

Experience / Qualifications

4 years of private tutoring at Sierra College and Sacramento State University
Currently working as a Research Assistant analyzing migration patterns of South Koreans due to displacement during the Korean War.
Currently working as Teachers Assistant that provides after class tutoring to 200 students.
I will start you off with the development of Buddhism and Hinduism in India, and branch out towards the development of Confucianism in China. I will help you develop an understanding of Japanese Zen, and the relationship that Japan has had with its combination of religions. I've tutored many in the development of religions and philosophies, and it is important that both are intermingled within Asia. I help foster a safe environment to ask questions and become further enlightened within this subject. Let us work together to unpack biases, and develop a better understanding of Asian Philosophy. This is a Asian Philosophy 101 course so no prior knowledge is needed.
Experienced personal tutor and teacher of 2 years, specializing in the adults who want to improve their comprehension of topics! All ages welcome, as I can make things fun and friendly while ensuring results. Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student- want to ace an exam? Want to communicate with family members? Want to talk to that person in class? Or do you just feel like you don't understand some topics and need review? I can answer any question you have, and will be happy to assist with homework or other tasks to ensure you can catch up in courses, or get the generalized support you deserve. Our goal is to communicate- I want to communicate with you! Lets set goals and start talking now!
The history of Korea, Japan, and China are rich and intermingled. With my Magna Cum Laude Bachelors in Asian Studies focusing on Japan I can teach you about Japanese art, language, architecture, philosophy, religion, economics, development, and generalized history. I am currently working as an assistant to a Sacramento State Professor conducting research into migration patterns of South Koreans displaced by the Korean War. I can teach you about the development of Korea- about the K-wave, and the subsequent relationship they have had with Japan. I also am working as a teaching assistant and auditing courses to explain North Korea's sociology. Learning about Japan and Korea would not be complete by understanding the philosophies passed on from China. The development of the worlds current largest economy powerhouse has influenced every country in the world. China developing Africa is a recent interest of mine as it is a new form of colonialism. I can teach you about ancient East Asia, and I can teach you where it is believe the countries are heading.
My biggest fear when I started Japanese was making mistakes and being teased by others. It happened a lot, but I continued to pursue Japanese for the last 8 years of my life. I know what its like to make mistakes, and I know how nerve-wracking it is to try to do something new. I want to help you in the basics as I feel confident I can teach you how to read, write, and apply basic Japanese to your everyday life. I can teach you tips, tricks, and give you the insider scoop on how to prevail and become a proud student of the Japanese language. Even if you have not even googled how to do Japanese I can start you at the absolute basics. Lets learn together, and I can tell you about my experience abroad!

Living a Happy, Fulfilling, and Purposeful Life in a World Gone Mad
Hi! Have a little chat with me if you feel lost, disappointed, or angry about life. I have been through these things myself (for many many years), but luckily, I have found ways to live a joyful and meaningful life!

How we do this class: you can discuss anything you feel like, I will be listening and sharing my point of view (if you want it). The online meeting will last for 30 minutes. If you prefer, we can also communicate through texting. Have a look at my profile, and if you think you will be comfortable with me, don’t hesitate to contact me! Have a nice day! : )

Numa
Spiritual Teachings & Meditative Dialogues with Numa
I’m Numa, and I offer meditative dialogues to help you reconnect with the Self within. Together, we’ll create a space for stillness and presence, allowing clarity, peace, and authenticity to naturally emerge. This journey is about uncovering the wisdom and peace already within you, one breath at a time. My life’s work is rooted in exploring the depths of the Self, inspired by sages like Krishnamurti, Eckhart Tolle, and Ramana Maharshi. My journey, driven by curiosity and the search for meaning, has revealed profound insights into what it means to be human and the limitless possibilities beyond the status quo. Figures such as Ramana Maharshi, Neem Karoli Baba, and Eckhart Tolle invite us to rediscover the stillness within, guiding us toward clarity and peace. Buddhist wisdom, embodied in the teachings of the Dalai Lama and centuries-old practices, reminds us of the impermanence of life and the power of mindfulness. These teachings illuminate the infinite paths to self-realization. Each represents a facet of the same truth: the journey inward is the most profound journey of all.
