I am Lei, Half-Japanese and half Filipino(æ„çł»äșș). I was born on January 7, and let my age be a mystery (I hope the birth year on my profile isn't shown) :D. I was born and raised in Manila, Philippines. I'm a college undergrad. I am a positive person. Also, my motivation to teach English comes from a student who has a passion for learning the language.
I started teaching English to pre-schoolers and elementary students from ages 3 to 7 years old when I migrated here to Japan 11 years ago. I have few pictures from my first day of teaching English, although, unfortunately, I cannot upload them due to capacity problems of the site.
I taught a few adults as well, it was man to man. However, I stopped teaching man to man for I had an affright feeling.
I can speak 3 languages, which will be English, Japanese, and Tagalog(language in the Philippines). I can read and write in Katakana and Hiragana. I'm still working with my Kanji(I can read more than I can write though). I know it's difficult, still, I like the æžăé . I can read and write Cyrillic (Russian Alphabet) and Hangul (Korean Alphabet).
âą Certification for Speech Power

Iâm a disciplined yet very friendly teacher. I can help you build your confidence & English level at the same time.
I'd be willing to teach everything that I know for someone who will show me an interest in learning things, most especially the English language.
I teach mainly the core language aspects which are "Comprehension, Vocabulary, and most of all Pronunciation", also, Idioms, most especially idioms that are used for business conversation.
Having a good command of English helps us to have more opportunities in life, especially in our careers!
So let's learn a lot! Looking forward to teaching you!
