Hi everyone!
My name is Kyle, and I'm originally from Seattle, Washington, USA. I currently live in Shizuoka, Japan, where I've been teaching English at the high school level for the past five years. I have a degree in Communication Studies from Western Washington University and over nine years of teaching experience, including four years at a private academy near Seattle.
My teaching style is interactive, supportive, and student-centered. I especially enjoy teaching conversational English, pronunciation, vocabulary, and helping students express their thoughts and opinions. I believe learning English should be a collaborative experience, and I want my students to feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and trying new things.
Outside the classroom, I'm passionate about music and have been playing guitar and piano since I was four years old. I'm also a huge history buff, so I enjoy traveling to new places and visiting historical sites and museums. I'm always happy to hear new music recommendations or about places you've visited!
I look forward to seeing you in class!
