Message to students!
Hi! I'm an experienced ALT, private tutor and conversation partner.
I have a B.A. degree in English. That means I've studied language, literature, reading, and writing. I am very interested in language and communication. My favorite language subject is philosophy of literature.
At my university, I gave private English lessons to many study-abroad students from Japanese universities. I have also given private lessons to younger students and adults. I have a lot of fun teaching English one-to-one.
I have studied linguistics, grammar, and writing, so I can help you with specific English questions and problems. If you want to improve your speaking and listening skills, I can help you practice English conversation. I think fun, relaxed conversation about interesting topics is the best way to learn a language. I am very social and have many interests, so we can talk about anything!
I love meeting new people and I love talking about English. Let's get together and have fun with English! I hope to see you soon. |
