私のプロフィールをご覧いただき、ありがとうございます。日本人学習者の課題を深く理解し、自然で自信を持った英語コミュニケーションへと導きます。一緒に学習の旅を始めましょう！
Teaching Specialty:
Many Japanese universities focus on grammar and writing, so professionals often struggle to speak. Before mastering business English, a strong everyday conversation foundation is essential. You’ll find excellent business conversation textbooks in Japanese bookstores. 【ビジネス英語基礎】文法・ライティング中心の教育では話す力が伸びにくいため、まず日常会話の基礎を固めましょう。書店に良書が揃っています
We can discuss business topics or anything you like, and focus on idioms and slang to understand news, movies, and everyday speech. 【日常英会話】ビジネスやお好きな話題で会話し、ニュースや映画で使うイディオム・スラングも学べます。
I offer lessons from basic to advanced—grammar, speech, phonics, slang, idioms, or any English topic you choose. 【英語基礎】初級～上級向けに、文法・発音・フォニックス・スラング・イディオムなど幅広く対応します。

Work Experience:
Teaching Professional
From 1966 to 1996, I worked in Japan as a business consultant for 13 years. After my time in Japan, I continued consulting in Singapore, Malaysia, Mexico, the Middle East, and the U.S., mainly with Japanese companies. Since 1996, I’ve been self-employed as an education professional, teaching English both online and in person for over 25 years. During this time, I’ve taught more than 90,000 lessons. I spent 13 years in Japan, using Japanese in my work as a researcher. For the past 3 years, I’ve been teaching English on SkimaTalk.
