Administrator's comment (Mar/27/2012)

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
プライベート７名、セミプライベート４名と大学で８クラス教えています。

(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。日本語で書けるサポートスタッフがいます。

(3) 教材について（おすすめ教材など）
場合によってはテキストを使用しません。テキストを使用するならば、例えば「Making a Difference」や「Step Up to Better English」のような日本スタイルのテキストのいずれかを使用します。全てのレベルの生徒に対して「National Geographic Reading Explorer」シリーズを使用するのが好きです。中上級者の生徒向けには、「Something Completely Different」（このテキストは、これまでに見た中で最も自然な英語が用いられています）を使用します。TOEICクラスについては、「Tactics for TOEIC: Listening and Reading Test」を使用します。

(4) レッスン場所について（おすすめのカフェなど）
騒々しすぎるのでカフェやそのような場所ではレッスンしません。
私のレッスンはとてもまじめで、リラックスした雰囲気の中で深く学習できるように取り組んでいます。
カフェの雑音は生徒のレッスンに余分なストレスを与えます。
枚方の私のスクール、生徒宅（追加料金要）、または会社で教えたいと思っています。

(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TOEIC指導部門のリーダーとして4年間、関西大学でTOEIC戦術を教えた経験があり、日本で最も成功した有名なTOEIC講師の一人です。また、私のレッスンは常に大きな成果をあげており、いくつかのケースではスコアを300ポイント改善（20レッスンで3か月の戦略コース）し、多くの場合は200点以上改善しています。
ビジネス英語、TOEIC戦略、基本的な会話や生徒たちが既に知っている英語をブラッシュアップできるレッスンをしたいと思っています。また、JNTO（国際観光振興機構）ガイド通訳試験のエキスパートなので、日本でツアーガイドになりたい生徒は私のレッスンから多くのことを学べるでしょう。

(6) アピールポイント
日本の文化、野球をすること、ライティングを楽しんでいます。プロの教師で、真面目に仕事に取り組んでいます。
