About Me
italki teacher since Dec 4, 2018InterestsHistorySports & FitnessAnimation & ComicsScienceGaming
Hi guys! I'm from Georgia, U.S.A. I was born and raised there. After high school, I joined the Marine Corps. I served 4 years in the Marines. I was stationed in Okinawa, Japan for 3 of those years. When that was done, I went to the University of Guam where I spent my days either in class or at the beach. As you can see, I have spent a long time in Asia and around foreigners. This experience really gave me the passion for meeting foreigners and sharing English with them. I have been in Korea the last 10 years. Even though I study Korean, I am nervous to speak. I know the pressures that come with learning a language. However everything we want is on the other side of fear.Me as a Teacher
This is your class and your English learning experience. I want to tailor the class to your needs and wants. As a language learner myself, I understand the feeling when it comes to speaking the language. A teacher can really make or break that experience. I really focus on making students feel comfortable. That is my main focus. Able to keep the conversation going and keeping it natural is a real skill that takes time to perfect. Also, I try to get a real feel for the student and their interests. When you have an interest in the topic, conversations have a better and more natural flow. This are the two biggest things I focus on. All of this can be applied to all levels of English learning.My lessons & teaching style
I'm a big believer in consistency. Practicing a skill 1 hour a day for 10 days is better than practicing for 10 hours only once. With that said. I hope to see my students regularly, even if only once a week. I keep detail reports of all my classes. This helps me review when the next class comes around. Review is key. This is your class time, so I want you to speak as much as possible with me jumping in only when need be. I use this method when it comes to all types of class. Business English, basic level, everyday English or test prep all benefit from this. Also I think writing super important. If you are willing to write, I am willing to check it. If you can write it, then you can say it!My teaching material

Jeff先生はスポーツに詳しいので今日はNBAやNFL、MLBの話題で会話を楽しみました。1シーズンに何試合あるのか？野球とバスケはシリーズごとに移動するなど、スボーツそのものよりもその文化や習慣など新しく知って面白い話題で楽しめました。

今回は都会と田舎の生活、都会の子ども達は農業や食物が作られる様子を知らないという話をしました。
Jeff先生の地元では綿花の栽培が盛んで、一つの綿花畑が3キロ四方あるそうです。アメリカの農業の大規模さを改めて知れました。

Jeff先生との会話は外国の文化が知れてとても楽しいです。
今回はアメリカと日本のお家事情の話でした。
アメリカでは土地が広いので一階建てがポピュラーですが、日本は二階建てがほとんどだという話。アメリカでは車を外に置いてガレージを物置や趣味の部屋に使っている人が結構いるそうです。文化の違いは面白いです。
