Welcome to an attempt at a Blog

Well I have finally setup my blog to link with my business website. I will start by saying I will hopefully be posting my experiences as a teacher from past to the present and beyond. I have been teaching since Sept 1999 and have come a long way. I believe the key to success as an English teacher in Japan is quite a bit to do with personality but also with experience and access to the right materials and a willingness to always be looking for something better or more appropriate for your students. I have taught from big "Eikaiwa"s, a Juku(cram school), a senmon gakko for interior decorator students, Elem, middle, and high schools as well. I have taughts kids from 1 1/2 years old to a business men who is 65 years old. I have taught doctors, dentists, housewives and everybody in between. The variety makes it interesting. Anyway, let me know what you think and if any of my ideas are useful to you. You can find my business website at www.fesjapan.com which is my English School in Nishinomiya city. I teach adults and kids and enjoy it very much. I have been doing it about a year. It continues to grow even though I have been lazy promoting it. ( I prefer just teaching, and not all that advertising stuff).
