Hi everyone!
I'm a 26 years old teacher, who loves to travel and is passionate about speaking English. I have a degree in American Studies and spend a year studying abroad in beautiful California. If you're looking for a fun, energetic teacher in or around Fukuoka message me! I have been helping people with studying English for more than 4 years. In addition, I also have one year of formal teaching experience, as a TA for spoken English and presentation skills during college. My lessons mostly focus on speaking and making you more comfortable using English. In the past, most students showed significant improvements in conversation flow and word choice after only a few weeks of tutoring. Apart from practicing conversation we can incorporate anything from grammar review to more complex topics, such as accent reduction. Usually, I will start a session by a short, easy conversation about your daily life or work before moving on to the main topic of the day. This could be anything from role-playing a certain situation (like how to interact with customers in a store, how to introduce yourself to people or how to use idioms / casual expressions). Depending on your interests we can alter lessons and tailor them to your specific needs. At least 10-20 minutes per lesson will be devoted to simple everyday conversations (you can suggest a topic or I will present you with a few options for the day), afterwards we will do a short review of difficult or new vocabulary / grammar that might have come up during the conversation. All this is to help you become more comfortable with speaking English. In general, I like to keep things very casual during the sessions so you can learn and practice in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. I'm very flexible about time and location of our meetings. In case you are outside of Fukuoka or frequently take trips, I offer Skype lessons at a reduced rate.
If you have any specific requests or questions, feel free to contact me!
I'm looking forward to hearing from you! :)
