About Me
italki teacher since Dec 10, 2021
I teach English in Japan. I'd love to tell you about British culture, people and similarities we share with Japan. As an OJT (on the job training) 職場 English teacher, I taught English to employees at an automotive parts manufacturing company to workers of different fields.
イギリスのロンドン生まれで、子供の頃から日本の文化が好きだったので日本に住む事が夢でした。今、日本で大人に英語を教えています。子供に教える経験があるので、教えるメソッドについて、ぜひご相談ください。趣味は車と音楽ですが、人の趣味を聞いたりするのが好きなので、是非皆さんの趣味を聞かせてください。イギリスの雰囲気で紅茶を飲みながら一緒に楽しく英語のレッスンをしましょう。よろしくお願いします。
Me as a Teacher
I am patient, friendly and a very good listener. As I'm learning Japanese as a second language, I can relate to what students struggle with. I will guide you in the right direction to finding an enjoyable way of practicing English that will keep you motivated and help you achieve your goals.
I have 7 years experience teaching all ages, from beginner to advance levels. I specialize in teaching Japanese workers (car industry), culture and social values. I also teach English to doctors in the medical field, who want to practice general conversation. I have helped 100+ students improve their TOEIC score. In my lessons, discussing culture and social values is always an eye-opening experience.

I have more time to speak nowadays than before. Sensei would intentionally do this for me to practice speaking. I can speak what I want with confidence than before. In the next lesson we'll give a try to build sentenses like "could've" "should've". This is what I wanted to practice, because this is the grammar that I think native Japanese have most difficulty with but natives use so often.

This was my first time to take Mina's lesson. She prepared a lot of questions for me so that I have a lot of chances to talk which is fun and useful. Also I am so glad that we could share our stories. I can't wait to take a lesson with her next time. Thank you Mina!

The lesson today was relative clauses and it was helpful. The longer the sentence becomes, the more difficult it is for me to build it in a limited amount of time. We are running out of time to dig deep on this topic, so we are going to continue this in the next lesson.

Thank you for interactive lessons as always. Next time I am going to build long sentences.
