Administrator's comment (Mar/28/2011)
先生に連絡を取り、確認させていただいた内容です。

(1) 現在の生徒数
約400名の中学生と大学で9クラスの生徒たちに教えています。プライベートで1名(医師)にも教えています。

(2) 日本語でのメール問い合わせについて
日本語でのメッセージ交換OKです。日本でMA(文学修士)とJLPT(日本語能力検定)の2級を取得しています。

(3) 教材について(おすすめ教材など)
私は2冊の教科書を書きました。 1冊は南雲堂から出版され、会社を設立して自分で2冊目を出版しました。日常会話と呼ばれるものは初級者/初中級者向けです。それは自信と言語能力を築き上げる多くの構造化されたCAアクティビティーを含んでいます。

(4) レッスン場所について(おすすめのカフェなど)
特におすすめの場所はありません。生徒宅もしくは私の自宅で教えたいと思っています。しかし生徒が希望するならば喜んでカフェやレストランでも教えます。

(5) レッスンについて(特に好んで教えているレッスンなど)
私は夏にグラスゴーでEAP(English for Academic Purposes)を教えます。そして、会話、ディベート、プレゼンテーションその他さまざまな英語を教えます。以前、足治療医(podiatrist)であったので、ビジネス英語や医学英語を教えることもできます。 子供のために90冊以上の本を書いたので、子ども向けのレッスンもできます。

(6) アピールポイント
私はスポーツが好きで、しばしばサッカーの試合を見に行きます。また、ハイキングや友だちと出かけることを楽しんでいます。私は、時々バーベキューパーティーや復活祭(イースター)・花見の季節やクリスマスにパーティーを催します。生徒たちが参加することは大歓迎です。
