専門分野
I was born and raised in northern California near San Francisco. My hometown is Napa, in the Napa Valley. Perhaps you have heard of it, as it is a world-famous wine making region.
Later, my family moved to a small seaside town called Half Moon Bay. It is a lot like Kamamura, and I enjoyed living near the beautiful Pacific Ocean.
Both my parents were teachers and my father became a college president, so I have always wanted to be a teacher or work in education.
In university, I studied history and English literature, and in graduate school I took a special teacher training course to become a history teacher.
Shortly after graduation, I was offered a job teaching English for Sony Corporation. Because of my studies in history, I had always wanted to live and work in another country, so I moved to Japan.
I enjoyed my life and work so much that I decided to become an English teacher permanently, and so, I entered graduate school again and got a master's degree in teaching English as a second language.
I now enjoy my career as an English teacher very much, sharing my language and culture with eager and talented students. In addition, I am very interested in designing effective classroom materials and researching better ways to teach English as a second language, as well as investigating the role of video in language teaching.
