英語を教えるのは大好きです！日本に来てから3年の間に千葉県でALTとして働いたこともあるし、幼稚園教諭もしたことあるし、現在熊本県で子供にも社会人にも英語を教えております。教師としての目標は様々な生徒の勉強に対して役に立ちたいです！
I love teaching! I have been teaching for 3 years since moving to Japan. I have taught as an ALT, as a kindergarten teacher, and as a dispatch teacher to a variety of age groups. I especially love working with young children, but I happily enjoy working with older people too! I am very interested in language learning both personally and as a teacher, and I want to help many people on their journey to learn English!My lessons & teaching style
For adult lessons, my basic approach to split the lesson between half conversation, and half textbook work and drills. For the conversation portion, the student can choose their own topic, or I can offer some topics to choose from. During the lesson, I will provide feedback and record new words and grammar. For the textbook work and drills, I tailor the types of materials used and the difficulty of the materials based on the skills of the student.
For kids lessons, the approach depends on the age of the student. For very small kids, I use a combination of story time, songs, games, and chants. For older students, I use textbooks designed for young ESL learners.My teaching material

レッスンありがとうございました！
講師都合で遅れる場合は、その分レッスンを延長して欲しかったです。
また、学習目的や方法、こちらの希望などに関してヒアリングが無かった点も残念でした。
ゆっくり話して下さるので、初心者向きではあると思います。
