In the English business in Japan, we sometimes need to use a PC to create some additional lesson materials for students.

They are created with Japanese students in mind and address areas that are often weak among Japanese students. But [...]
This year, I worked during the Golden Week and in exchange I took off 10 days in the middle of June to attend my daughter’s wedding in Maui, Hawaii. It was certainly a great time for everyone who attended and we had 146 attendees so it was a big event! Smith’s School is great to [...]

Every day I see thousands of young people here in Japan, near the station and near my school (many are university students). Some of them are studying English or other foreign languages with the intent to become good communicators. I think that these young people are very wise because more than at any time in [...]

This week, which was quite busy with a few trials, walk-in inquiries and the usual full load of lessons, I got a special surprise. When I called in to ask about a student’s lesson, I was informed that a student who had taken a trial at Smith’s School of English -Fukushima (スミス英会話福島校）had decided to join [...]

Last week, John of the Kawanishi School and I went to Ashiya to find a coffee shop and found a nice Italian style shop with outside seating. With the nice weather these days and nice artistic cafe late (this one had the patter of a leaf in the froth), we could really enjoy a nice [...]

Valentine’s Day is always a humble experience for Smith’s Eikaiwa Nakamozu and Smith’s School of English Sakai Higashi teachers. As we all know there is strong culture of gift giving in Japan and Valentines is no exception. We received many delicious chocolate sweets for which we are very grateful. Some of them were even homemade, yummy! I [...]

We have to be very careful when we take advise from folk. Today I proved without doubt that happy noise is good. I have been teaching Eikaiwa to a marketing expert who works for a very large Japanese firm. This person mentioned he had seen our guys in the streets of Kyobashi and had some [...]
スミス英会話堺東・なかもず校講師が書いた記事。日本語のメインサイトはこちら→(スミス英会話堺東校)(スミス英会話なかもず校) Last weekend I took a break from teaching English at Smith’s School of English Sakai Higashi and Nakamozu, and made a trip with my family to Shirahama(白浜), Wakayama prefecture.

Two apparently unrelated events happened to me yesterday that really got me thinking about my recent huge changes in life: coming to live in Japan and buying a Smith’s School of English franchised school. First, I visited Smith’s School of English head office in Kyobashi for an owners’ seminar, where I found the friendliness and support [...]
