以下、日本語解説!
I'm an Australian, CELTA qualified English teacher with experience teaching in lots of different settings. I'm a language learner myself, and can speak Italian, Japanese and Norwegian in addition to English. In addition to teaching English, I also play and teach music professionally, and am an avid tennis player! I'm really outgoing and have wide ranging interests, so I'm happy to talk about anything. 私はオーストラリア人で、CELTAの資格を持ち、様々な環境で教えた経験のある英語教師です。私自身も言語学習者で、英語以外にイタリア語、日本語、ノルウェー語を話すことができます。英語を教えるだけでなく、プロとして音楽を演奏したり教えたりすることもあります！私はとても外向的で、幅広いことに興味があります。Me as a Teacher
I pride myself on making my lessons fun and engaging. I believe that language learning needs to be fun in order to be effective, and therefore this is my number one priority. I'm flexible in my teaching style, but I also have thoughts about what makes a good English lesson, which I talk about below. My English teaching qualification is a CELTA, issued by Cambridge Assessment. 私は、楽しく魅力的なレッスンをすることに誇りを持っています。語学学習は楽しくなければ効果的なものにならないと思っているので、それを第一に考えています。私は教え方に柔軟性がありますが、良い英語レッスンとは何かについても考えています。私の英語教授資格は、ケンブリッジ・アセスメント発行のCELTAです。My lessons & teaching style
My favourite approach to teaching is through speaking practice, where you will learn how English grammar and vocabulary work together in a natural way. I'm also very comfortable teaching using other means, like textbooks, written materials, videos and more. I've helped friends at university with their acedemic English exams (IELTS etc.), so I'm familiar with these too.私の好きな指導法はスピーキング練習で、英文法と語彙がどのように連動しているのかを自然な形で学ぶことができます。また、教科書や筆記用具、ビデオなど、他の手段を使って教えることも得意です。大学の友人の英語試験（IELTSなど）を手伝ったことがあるので、これらの試験にも精通しています。My teaching material

I’ve been learning English with James for three months. The lessons with him are very professional, interesting and relaxing. He makes the English language come to you as he says in his presentation video. Thank you, James!

I had a really good class with James. He seems to be really passionate about teaching, and he helped me a lot with pronunciation mistakes and vocabularies tips. I highly recommend James for those who want to learn in a fun and personalized way

I needed to prepare for a job interview in English, and James helped me very much with this. Now I feel more confident, which is quite important before an interview. James not only helped me understand the nuances of English but also assisted with meaningful answers to potential questions. He provided very useful feedback and left important points in written form, which I can review again during my additional self-preparation right before the interview.
