こんにちは。カフェトークで、英語と日本語を教えているLeikoです。私は英語と日本語どちらも教える資格を持っているので、日本人の方には英語を、海外の方には日本語を教えています。また最近はコーチとしての資格も取得したので、生徒さんの語学学習の相談にのったりもしています。

As my students know, my name is Arturo and I am from Mexico City. I have graduated from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the second-best university in Latin America. As my major was Communication Sciences, I have worked in different areas of human communication starting from Human Development in Mexican indigenous communities, going through educational multimedia production and coming to Spanish teaching.

Hello everyone in the Cafetalk Community. I look forward to meeting many more of you and helping you learn and improve your English language skills. I look forward to meeting and speaking with many more students in the future and helping them achieve their goals and dreams in English language learning.

I've moved back to my home country, Indonesia, with my Korean husband due to his job. Indonesia is located in Java, and the weather is hot and humid throughout the year. I currently live in Jakarta, which is the center of Indonesia. As an island country, Indonesia is blessed to have the power of nature and various cultural heritages. We could see much diversity not only in arts, architecture, songs, and languages but also in the food. Indonesia has much energy and I can feel the growth of this country every day.

I majored in French literature at university, so I studied abroad in French for one year after graduation. I started working for a company once after that. However, I realized I need to improve my English. And I went to the UK to study abroad with my husband. We didn't have children yet at that time, so it was easy for us to make quick decisions like that. While we were in the UK, I got pregnant. I needed to go to a hospital for medical checkups, take surgery, get hospitalized, and take vaccination...So I have experienced a lot of things that I didn't expect before going to the UK.

I look back at my past and feel that by taking even a small action in the direction I want to go, the things I started were connected before I knew it, and when I realized it, I was closer to my dream, and a lot of times it has come true. For me, it's English and calligraphy. Meeting people you never expected to encounter and have a new path opening up to you is fun.

One needs to be patient and gentle with oneself. ‘Das ist das A und O’, as we say in German. After that, it is important to surround yourself with the language. Even if you struggle to understand everything, put on the radio. There are radio programmes specially made for those who learn a language. Start reading the papers. As difficult as it is at the beginning, it helps to familiarise yourself with the language and get a feeling for it.

Hi! Nice to meet you, I'm Gabi. Learning a language should be fun, and all about communication. If you want to learn in a relaxed setting where you're more concentrating on getting your ideas across than getting the perfect grammar, then come with me! - - don't take this the wrong way, I will correct your grammar if you make a mistake, but it won't stop you from expressing yourself!

Junior high English is an important step in building grammar and vocabulary, which will form the foundation for the following year's of English studies. However, there are a lot of things to memorize, and if there is one thing you are bad at, it is a subject you will not understand. English is a great tool to connect with people in other countries. What a shame it would be to end up hating English! By repeating the basics over and over again, I try to help students gain confidence little by little.
