Teaching MangerCurrently I am teaching Japanese language and business manners for Thai staff in my company. I also support Thai staff to pass JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test). My teaching method is direct teaching method which means teach Japanese by using Japanese. However I can also teach Japanese by using English in need, depending on levels and types (& request) of learners.

Senior InstructorI taught Japanese for mainly Thai people and some other international students at the age between 5 years old and over 60 years old. The Japanese proficiency levels are from zero beginner to upper-intermediate students. The teaching style was direct teaching method and mainly group lessons (a few private lessons as well). Besides classroom teachings, I had a chance to make mid-term/final exams and cooperated with the other instructors to revise homework and small quizzes in respective levels.
