English Instruction
Teacher from United States. Speaks English, Japanese.English lessons for all levels and purposes: homework help, free conversation, test preparation, slang, accent correction, etc.
My teaching approach has been formed over the last ten years. However, this is not to say that I'm not not still perfecting it today. I'm constantly looking for new ways to engage students and keep their interest levels as high as possible. One way to achieve those goals is to appeal to the students interests. So, before we really get into the nitty gritty of English learning, I like to have students compose a short essay about their interests. This allows me to cater to each student.

"Leeann classes are fun and engaging. She carefully balances the course content according to the needs of the student. Each class could be a mix of interactive games, open discussions and serious reading. I had six classes with her and you can never guess what exciting and fun stuff will come next.

Why learn English? Just after Mandarin and Spanish, English is the third most common native language in the world and it is definitely the most learned second language. English is today's world's lingua franca. Many occupations and professions require at least working knowledge of the language, as it has become the most widely used language in international publications, international trade, telecommunications, entertainment and diplomacy.
How hard is it to learn English compared to other languages? It depends, of course, on the languages you speak already. The most difficult aspects of learning English are the vast vocabulary, the differences between spelling and pronunciation, the subtleties of grammar and the different ways it is used around the world.
