English Experience

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences About a year and a half ago, I began a part-time job teaching English in Japan. The school I taught at, Sunny Club, was a small cram school run in the first level of a two-story home.

While the small size was a hindrance at times, working for Sunny Club was one of the most fulfilling experiences that I have had.Table of Contents Classroom Setting Rapport Teaching Methods Mistakes Do you want to teach English abroad?

Because of this, English as a Second Language is in high demand with young learners being a focus group in Japan. English is taught in the school environment during nearly all of a child's primary education years, but this, unfortunately, doesn't translate to a proficient English-speaking Japanese population.Table of Contents Global Opportunities Differences in Language Structure Cultural Challenges Do you want to teach English abroad?
