學經歷

I was born and raised in the US and double-majored in philosophy and Asian Studies with the intent of going to law school. During my college years, I joined a volunteer group to teach English in rural Taiwan for a summer, which was an interesting first experience in the career field. I eventually chose to move to Japan (and later Taiwan) and started teaching English professionally.

教學風格

• My main goal in teaching is to help students achieve their goals with English, whether they are trying to improve their test scores or just wanting to communicate more effectively. I generally move towards this goal through simplifying concepts and making sure the student gets lots of practice (as opposed to just having the students listen to a lecture). • One of the first things I learned about teaching is that most learning comes from review. So even if the student is required to look at new material in every lesson, I generally try to review material from previous lessons to make sure the student still remembers the information (especially if I can make it relate to the new material). • My personal theory when it comes to learning a language is that as long as you can become more and more comfortable with expressing yourself like you would in your most fluent language, anything that requires the language you’re learning (like exams or work) will become easier to study for as a result. So I try to expose the student to English-language content related to things they already enjoy so that they can become more comfortable with English as a way to communicate (rather than a school subject to memorize and forget after an exam), and hopefully make English easier to digest for them.

背景介紹

I’m a big fan of creativity and trying to understand others, so I do my best to understand my students’ perspectives and teach them accordingly. I have almost eight years of teaching English as a foreign language under my belt, to students of various ages and backgrounds, so I am confident I can curate lessons to each student’s needs and wants while sharing some of my confidence in communication and critical thinking with them at the same time.
