講師詳細Teacher's Details

Hi! My name is Richard, and I am a TESOL Certified English Educator with more than 16 years of experience teaching students and clients* of all ages.

Born and raised in the USA, I have lived and worked all over the world, including India, Southern Africa, Indonesia, and Thailand to name a few places. I have traveled through more than 45 countries including Japan. I enjoy meeting Japanese people, sharing knowledge, ideas, and discussing whatever interests you may have. 

I use 'content and language integrated learning' as my main strategy.  I also believe in focusing on 'conversation' and 'context', as this is the way we all learned our home language and it is the best and quickest way to learn English too. I will work with you to develop your vocal articulation, increase your vocabulary, understand useful idoms and common phrases, make appropriate sentences, and most importantly, speak with confidence. I also believe that learning can be fun, not dry and boring. Let's increase your fluency now!

*Note: Many adults I refer to as clients, not students. They already have a good level of English but want to practice their skills and reinforce their vocabulary recall. Typically, clients also like to discover new emerging trends in the language.  I do too! We do that together.
