A Great Day

Today I handed out flyers for my English conversation school (英会話スクール), Smith’s School of English Tsukaguchi (スミス英会話 塚口校) in Tsukaguchi (塚口), Amagasaki  (尼崎市), Hyogo Perfecture (兵庫県), Japan.   Many people had “good morning” said to them!  I hope that I brightened their day! (^.^)

What I Strive to Do in Tsukaguchi

At my English conversation school,  Smith’s School of English Tsukaguchi (スミス英会話 塚口校),  located in Tsukaguchi, Amagasaki (尼崎市), Hyogo Prefecture (兵庫県),  I have such wonderful students.  I am always happy to see them and they always seem happy to see me.  I really have a great time teaching them English conversation (英会話).

Japan has Many Good English Speakers!

This morning while distributing flyers to promote my English school in Kobe (スミス英会話岡本校) I talked to one woman on the street near the station who spoke English quite well.  She said in English that I was ‘exaggerating’ when I commented that she spoke English well.  Again, as has happened many times recently, I realized that [...]

Vocabulary Lessons are Fun Too!

Last week I had three students and decided to use the vocabulary lessons. These are an interesting part of the Smith’s curriculum.  They consist of many units each comprising 12 words. The words are random and unrelated for the most part.  Some are nouns.  Some are verbs and some are adjectives.  Some can be used [...]

She has filled up this folder and will start [...]

Any Day Now

The predicted date of birth of my wife and I’s baby is August 11th, so our baby could be born any day now.   It’s quite exciting! (^.^)  Everybody who knows about our baby asks me about it, including students at Smith’s School of English Tsukaguchi (スミス英会話 塚口校).  It seems that everybody’s  looking forward to [...]

My Dear Cactus

I’ve liked cactuses since I was a boy.  Not the spiky ones that hurt when you touch them, but the ones that have smoother surfaces.  I had a little cactus at my parent’s home in Canada when I was young.  It may still be there.  Cactuses live so long and are quite strong.  They really [...]
