Certifications
As a TEFL-certified English teacher (GA Level 5 Diploma), an author of three books, and a book reviewer for an established American company, I've been fortunate to explore the depths of language and literature. These experiences have been both a professional journey and a personal passion, especially in aiding ESL learners to navigate the complexities of the English language. I've had the joy of working with a variety of students, each bringing their unique experiences to the learning process.
Announcements
My path as an author has taught me the subtle art of storytelling and style—wisdom I'm eager to pass on to you, aiming to elevate your writing. In reviewing books, I've learned to appreciate the diverse ways in which effective writing can engage and inspire readers, a perspective that I bring to my teaching.
Hobbies/Travel
When I'm not teaching, I love spending time reading and writing. These are my favorite hobbies, and I do them as much as I can. I also enjoy staying active by training in boxing, playing basketball, running, and playing chess. I believe in always trying to get a little better every day, which is a lesson I learned from the philosophy of Kaizen. This idea keeps me motivated to improve, whether it's through sports, learning, or personal growth.

    Dear MessageMentor, I am cheered up by your encouragements and praises very much. They give me power and hope to tackle the difficult subject I have when writing English. The alternatives suggested by you are really beautiful such as, "The karaoke machine calculated my singing scores, which were consistently around eighty to ninety—above average—which made me really excited," instead of, "My singing scores calculated by the karaoke machine were around eighty to ninety, higher than average, that made me absolutely excited." The renewed sentence is direct and smooth, conveying the important information naturally. I always learn a lot of things from your corrections and I would like to come up with the right words to express my thoughts properly. I appreciate your kind support. Best regards, atsuko5

    Dear MessageMentor, Thank you for educating me every day! All of the English sentences I created were assessed as "良く出来ています," which was a great relief! However, your revised sentences are so sophisticated that I felt motivated to work harder. I've just finished reviewing your feedback, memorizing revised phrases, and completing my review notes! I will make it a daily habit to review today's assignment and check it again in the evening. I look forward to your next class! Sincerely,

    Dear MessageMentor, I am always encouraged by your precious comments on my sentences. For example, you praised my way to make sentences, "You have a talent for connecting small, specific observations to larger emotions, making your writing both vivid and relatable". I was really cheered up by this comment. I haven't noticed my writing is relatable to somebody until you pointed it. I feel healed as I imagine some larger emotions in my mind after seeing something that moves me. I try to express my feeling in paragraph, then I am tremendously happy if I can successfully do it. I just have such spirits, but I have a lack of usages of words and expressions to explain properly. I am impressed by your beautiful alternatives, thinking they are exactly what I wanted to say. I would like to improve my English step by step. I am grateful for your kind support. Best regards, atsuko5

    Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your corrections and suggesting alternatives. My sentences improved remarkably with them. It is not easy for me to come up with the exact words that fit the sentences and I don't even know the suggested words. However, I will continue to memorize each new word. My steps may be slow, but I want to go without stopping. In fact, memorizing new words is a great fun for me as I like making some vocabulary books. I suppose I am fond of doing such detail works. I am always grateful for your warm support. Best regards, atsuko5

    Dear MessageMentor, Thank you very much for your correcting and suggesting alternatives. I learn a lot of things from your corrections as always. As for, "My sister seemed to be fond of the beautiful tearoom and the fantastic English house," you suggested, "My sister enjoyed the charming tearoom and the elegant English house." I think, "enjoyed" is certainly better instead of, "seemed to be fond of". I like "charming" and "elegant," as they make the sentence much clearer. I need a sense to come up with those adjectives. I would like to acquire this kind of sense. Thank you very much for your encouragements in Japanese. I felt very close to you. My journey will be long, but I enjoy each step. I am happy to be expected what essay will come next by you. I am always grateful for your kind support. Best regards, atsuko5
