I taught EFL (English as a Foreign Language) in Japan for 31 years. I taught every level from kindergarten to grad school as well as business English classes and classes for adults who wanted to learn and/or brush up their English skills. Most of my school work was in junior high (28 years), but my most rewarding work was in high school (15+ years).

I taught EFL (English as a Foreign Language) in Japan for 31 years. I taught every level from kindergarten to grad school as well as business English classes and classes for adults who wanted to learn and/or brush up their English skills. Most of my school work was in junior high (28 years), but my most rewarding work was in high school (15+ years).
I am acquainted with many of the standard school texts and with EFL texts from the major publishing houses. I also designed a 3-year curriculum for junior high school, and made many of my own lesson plans and/or supplements.
Teaching was my passion! I loved being in the classroom.
Although I do NOT have a teaching license, I went through several training programs at various schools and through other organizations (JALT, for example). I qualified as a CFE (Common European Framework) tester and a BULATS examiner.
I really and truly love teaching and helping my students succeed in reaching whatever goals they have set for themselves. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you to reach your goals.
