35 Years of International Business Experience. 13 Years were spent in Japan.

INTRODUCTION:

Hello, my name is Mac White. I am an English teacher at SkimaTalk and have been a private English tutor for the past 26 years. Throughout my career, I have exclusively taught Japanese students. After high school, I studied Japanese language and history in Japan. In the U.S., I graduated with a degree in Asian Studies and Japanese Language, and later received a graduate degree in International Relations (Kokusai Boeki), focusing on global trade and business.

For 13 years, I worked as a market researcher and consultant in Japan, spending about 40% of my time speaking Japanese. Afterward, I consulted for Japanese and American companies in other parts of Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. This international experience has given me valuable insights into business practices and cultural differences, which greatly influence how I teach English.

As an English teacher on SkimaTalk, I focus on improving students' speaking skills. There are two main types of English conversation: everyday conversation and standard spoken English. I teach both to help you communicate clearly in any situation.

My goal is to make your speaking skills as strong as—if not stronger than—your reading skills. Many students can read English well but feel nervous speaking. I help you by practicing real-life situations, like ordering food, chatting with friends, or speaking at work.

For beginners, don’t worry! We’ll start with grammar review, correcting pronunciation, and practicing basic conversations. I’ll guide you every step of the way to help you build confidence in speaking.

こんにちは、私の名前はマック・ホワイトです。私はSkimaTalkの英語教師で、過去26年間、プライベートの英語チューターとしても活動しています。これまでのキャリアの中で、私は日本人の生徒にのみ英語を教えてきました。高校卒業後、日本で日本語と日本の歴史を学びました。アメリカでは、アジア学と日本語の学位を取得し、その後、国際関係学(国際貿易)で大学院の学位を取得しました。

その後13年間、日本でマーケットリサーチャーおよびコンサルタントとして働き、そのうち約40%は日本語で仕事をしていました。その後、日本とアメリカの企業に対して、アジア、ラテンアメリカ、中東の他の地域でもコンサルティングを行いました。この国際的な経験は、ビジネス慣行や文化の違いについて貴重な洞察を与えてくれ、英語教育にも大きな影響を与えています。

SkimaTalkで英語教師として、私は生徒の会話力向上に重点を置いています。英会話には大きく分けて2種類あります:日常英会話と標準的な会話英語です。どちらも教え、どんな状況でも自信を持ってコミュニケーションできるようサポートします。

私の目標は、皆さんの会話力を読む力と同じくらい、あるいはそれ以上に強くすることです。多くの生徒は英語を読むのは得意でも、話すことに自信が持てません。私は、実際の会話練習を通じて、食事を注文する、友達と話す、仕事で話すなどのシチュエーションを練習しながら、皆さんをサポートします。

初心者の方も安心してください!まずは文法の復習、発音の修正、基本的な会話練習から始めます。一緒に一歩ずつ進め、会話力に自信を持てるようにサポートします。

Teaching Specialty:

Business English Basics › General

Even in the Business departments of Japanese universities business English education empathizes grammar and written English, not spoken conversational business English. As a consequence, Japanese business people are quite good at reading and writing business English but lack the skills in speaking business English. Before Japanese business people can become good In spoken business English they must have skills in the basic spoken conversational English. Now, the good news is that there are so many very good textbooks for business conversational English in book stores in Japan.

Everyday English › Free Conversation

We could tackle topic related to your business or any topic you would like to talk. We also could focus on learning idioms and slang in order to understand news, watch movies, communicate properly and etc.

English Basics › General

I can provide lessons from Basic to Advance levels of English from grammar, speech, phonics, slangs, idioms or any other English topics.
