About Me

I am from Cape Town South Africa and I have been teaching English in Japan for the last 8 years at every level. I've lived in Nagano for 6 years and Tokyo for 2 years. I did work as an ALT at a private High school in the area as well as kids schools in Tokyo. I have a love for teaching English in a fun way and encouraging students to achieve the goals that they think impossible since they cant speak English. My class moto is "If you can say hello, you're already half way there!".

Catherine
English teacher for adults/children and adults
From a young age, I learned English by studying in language schools and taking private lessons with native speakers. I also prepared for international exams such as IELTS, as well as the Ukrainian national exam at the end of my studies (which is probably similar to the exam you take in France after high school). This allowed me to understand the intricacies of preparing for English exams. I have extensive experience in learning a new language quickly and effectively. For over two years, I have been teaching English to my students, passing on my expertise. My teaching method combines an initial interview and a grammar dictation, which allows me to determine your level. Then, together we develop a program adapted to your needs. I want my students to understand that learning English can be fun and engaging! About the course: I draw my materials from various books that I have used myself and I can guarantee clear and quality explanations. I also develop some exercises myself.

Bishoy
Math teacher for students from 7 years old till 18 years old, or for adults whose interested in learning math
I'm an engineer, and I really enjoy teaching mathematics in an easy and simplified way, without any complexity. I have a skill for conveying information effortlessly. I understand that mathematics is a challenge for many people, but we’ll make it one of the easiest and most enjoyable subjects. Once you understand mathematics and know how to solve problems, it becomes one of the most enjoyable and rewarding subjects for you, and you won't want to study anything else. I explain and repeat once, twice, even three times until you understand well. The most important things for me are your focus and getting the homework done. We'll explain in multiple ways until the concept reaches you and you fully understand it. Of course, during the session, we’ll go through lots of examples together.
