這次選擇和James老師上英語新聞的課程，課堂很充實(ง๑ •̀_•́)ง 課前老師會提供新聞網站的連結，並根據學生的程度建議學生選擇相對應等級的文章，或是由老師幫忙挑選。這次選擇了關於「Google翻譯」的文章，上課時會先朗讀整篇文章，過程中老師會幫忙確認單字的發音，如果有不熟悉的詞彙或片語也可以提問，老師會用淺顯易懂的方式說明。等到確認文章理解沒問題後，老師會讓學生試著用自己的說法來總結這篇新聞的內容，並根據文章內容提出各種問題來做進一步的討論(對於Google翻譯的滿意度、目前的優缺點、和其他翻譯軟體/網站的比較、未來能否取代翻譯/通譯等相關職業......)。...

Glad to have another great lesson with teacher James! James is always patient to listen to my thoughts and give me feedback at the end of the class. I absolutely enjoyed the class a lot, thank you so much!

James is a gentle and patient listener. We had a look at an article and discussed the content of Japanese government's reopening policy. It was such a cultivated talk.

The other day, I used a word that I learned from his lesson during my conversation with a friend of mine who is a native speaker of English . It was 'self-deprecating jokes', and she was surprised that I knew the word. I am looking forward to learning more words and expressions from him so that I can describe things more in my own words without stuttering. この前ジェイムズ先生に学んだ言葉をネイティブの友人との会話中に使うと、私の知っている語彙だと思わなかったらしく、とても驚いていました。難しいと感じる言葉もしっかりと落ち着いて教えてくださるのでとても助かっています。とてもおすすめです。

Fun Easy to talk to Courteous and thorough

一年ぶりにレッスンを受けました。話しやすく、いつも落ち着いて新しい言葉を教えてくださるので仕事が終わった後でも疲れません。またこれから毎週学ぼうと思っています。Thank you very much for the wonderful lesson. It has been a year since the last lesson, but the lesson is always calm, but fun and educational. I am looking forward to restart learning from you again!

Professional Content rich Courteous and thorough

30分の体験レッスンを受講しました。間違えた文法、発音をその都度細かく指摘してくれます。発音は、チャットに発音記号を書いてくれるので、復習するときにとても助かると思います。　自分の間違いに気付きながらレッスンが進んでいき、レッスンの最後でまとめてフィードバックをしてもらえたので、ただ話をするだけでは終わらないとっても充実したレッスンでした。しっかりマンツーマンで文法、スピーキングのスキルをあげたい人にはぴったりのレッスンだと思います！！
