I have taught English in Brazil, Korea, and Japan as a private tutor and in language schools.
Comment: I have an interesting life story I'm sure you'd love to hear! I've lived in the USA, Brazil, Korea and Japan. We can talk about anything you want! Let's chat and practice English while having fun together. :) For lessons, we can use your own materials or content provided by me. I will adjust to your needs and make a personalized lesson plan based on your level! I'm looking forward to meeting you!
Admin's comment: 私は中級または上級の英語の知識を持っている大人の生徒に会話の授業をすることが好きです。多くの人が自然な会話を練習する機会を得たいと考えています。アピールポイントとしては、私がアメリカのネイティブスピーカーであり、生徒は私のアクセントを理解するのに苦労することはありません。私ははっきりと言葉を発音するようにしているので、生徒は無駄な言葉ではなく適切な言葉を身に着けることができます。（gonna, wanna, kinda, sorta, etc.などの言葉を使わないようにしています。）

Administrator's comment (Mar/01/2018)

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
現在、私は週に1〜2回、定期的に教えている３人のプライベートの生徒と、毎日オンラインで教えている1人の生徒を受け持っています。

(2) 日本語でのメール問い合わせについて
ひらがなや基本的な漢字を読むことはできますが、完全に日本語で書かれたメッセージを受け取った場合は、概要を把握するためにGoogle翻訳を使用します。私は日本人の夫がいますが、もし生徒に英語で書いてもらえるなら、英語のスキルを知ることできるのでその方がありがたいです。初心者の方はすぐにあきらめることもありますが教えることはできます。中級から上級の生徒はもっと勤勉であり学ぼうとしています。

(3)
私は、「Grammar in Use」の教科書は良い参考書だと思います。スピーキングためには、NHKの月刊誌の会話マガジンを生徒の一人と一緒に使いました。しかし、通常の私のレッスンではオンラインの記事、特に「OneStopEnglish」と「HeadsUpEnglish」で提供されるリソースを使用することをお勧めします。私は教材を無料でオンラインで見つけることができます。

(4) レッスン場所について（おすすめのカフェなど）
私は麹町駅の２番出口の隣のエクセルシオールカフェが好きです。通常は6時〜7時ごろは空いていて、私の大学の四谷駅まで徒歩圏内です。

(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）
私は中級または上級の英語の知識を持っている大人の生徒に会話の授業をすることが好きです。多くの人が自然な会話を練習する機会を得たいと考えています。アピールポイントとしては、私がアメリカのネイティブスピーカーであり、生徒は私のアクセントを理解するのに苦労することはありません。私ははっきりと言葉を発音するようにしているので、生徒は無駄な言葉ではなく適切な言葉を身に着けることができます。（gonna, wanna, kinda, sorta, etc.などの言葉を使わないようにしています。）

(6) アピールポイント
私はとても知識が豊富で、知的かつ話し好きなので、簡単に話すことのできるさまざまなトピック（技術、環境、文化、政治、ビジネス）を持っています。私は若い年齢（24歳）ですが、世界について多くのことを理解しており、4つの国（アメリカ、ブラジル、韓国、日本）に住んでいたので、人生経験も豊富です。
