NOTE: I DO NOT teach kids classes. ONLY ADULT STUDENTS (18years or older). Thank you.
Hello. My name is Scott. I am an American but now live in Japan. In fact, I have lived in Japan for many years. I enjoy racquetball, reading, Youtube, American baseball, traveling, hiking and walking in nature. I am very much looking forward to meeting students from all over the world so that, I can utilize my vast teaching experience(30 years), to assist each student in improving their English speaking abilities. TEACHING CERTIFICIATES: Adult Education & Literacy June 2018., Tests of Adult Basic Education Certificate August 2018, National(USA) Career Readiness (Gold) Certificate June 2018.Me as a Teacher
TEACHING EXPERIENCE: I have nearly 30years(1994-2024) experience teaching English as a Second Language at both Japanese Universities and as an Online English Language Tutor. I "hold" three(3) higher education degrees. B.A. American Literature, B.A. Economics/Marketing M.B.A. Business Administration. OTHER BUSINESS/INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE: Besides my career as an English Second Language Tutor, I have worked as a Program Coordinator at a Government run NPO Educational Agency as well as, working as a private investment and financial services consultant. I am well-versed and excel in the fields of language acquistion education, business finance and cross cultural life-style understanding.My lessons & teaching style
My "main focus" during each lesson is to help you (1) build your vocabulary (2) improve and use correct pronunciation while speaking (3) improve your voice intonation(while reading) and (4) improve your listening comprehension. To accomplish (1-4) I use a variety of free chat techniques, PDFs, internet websites, text documents, image files, etc.
My lessons are fun, fast paced and usually there is an "objective/goal" that both student and I want to achieve each lesson. At times, I will assign review homework to the student). In general, I want to create a comfortable yet educational atmosphere so that the student can relax and learn valuable knowledge during each lesson.My teaching material
