In my classes, I believe that students learn best when they speak and practice as much as possible, so I encourage a lot of conversation and participation. I like to design lessons that are engaging and student-centered, using discussions, real-life topics, and activities to help students feel confident using English.
My teaching style is supportive and patient. I understand that learning a new language can be challenging, so I always try to make my students feel relaxed and motivated. I help students improve their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while also focusing on natural communication and fluency.
I also adapt my teaching to each student’s needs. Whether you want to improve your speaking skills, prepare for exams, or use English in daily life, I will create lessons that help you reach your goals.
Most importantly, I believe learning English should be fun, meaningful, and practical.
I have a strong interest in East Asian cultures, especially Korean, Japanese, and Taiwanese culture. I enjoy learning about their traditions, food, language, and daily lifestyles. Korean culture fascinates me through its music, dramas, and modern pop culture. Japanese culture interests me because of its unique blend of tradition and technology, from ancient temples and customs to innovative design. Taiwanese culture is also very appealing to me because of its friendly people, vibrant street food, and rich cultural mix.
Exploring these cultures helps me understand different perspectives and ways of life. I enjoy watching films, trying traditional dishes, and learning about cultural history. My interest in these cultures also motivates me to learn more languages and connect with people from different backgrounds.
I’m excited to learn and grow together with my students!
