Hi students of Cafetalk, I am native New Yorker Len! 初めまして、れんです!ニューヨーカーと英会話してみませんか?
Teaching Style I try to adjust each lesson based on the students needs and goals. Everyone is different; let's find what works best for you! I am bilingual so we can use Japanese to better help you understand if needed. I try to make each lesson interesting so that learning English can be enjoyable and not feel like a struggle.
About Me I was born and raised in Manhattan NY. For a while I was a hair stylist but 9 years ago I made a big life change and moved to Japan. I started teaching English here for the past 3 years and have experience teaching practical American English. I have a family with 2 sons. We are a happy bilingual family! I went to an art high school and love painting, ceramics, photography, etc! Since having kids though, I have less time for art. I do hope to be able to continue when my kids are more independent. I also love travel, cooking, and eating!
I think English is a powerful tool that can help people connect from all over the world. Learning about new cultures and sharing your own is special. I want more Japanese people to speak English! Learning English is difficult so I hope we can find a fun way to learn and improve so you can be comfortable and confident with English!
