Hi guys! We are American TESOL students from Japan. Half of us are college students who want to be English teachers, and the others are teaching English to Japanese students. We all have teaching experience and want to improve our teaching skills.American TESOL is the course where students learn how to teach English in the “communicative approach.”
We have a common hope to make a change or bring about something new for Japanese education. Kakeru has a dream to establish an English institution in Japan.
Through this course, he wants to know if teaching fits him.
Yoko is now teaching kids and adults, but sometimes she feels that Japanese students need new methods to improve their English. Keiko has her own business and teaches her students privately but she thinks that her knowledge is limited. Mayuko majors in English education and has a strong will to take some actions to English education. Kohei wants to learn pedagogical approaches different from ones applied in Japan.
We believe that the American TESOL program gives us inspiring ideas for our future classes which will help our Japanese students improve their English.
