– 2014-2014 | Contracted to teach English at junior high schools in both Nerima and Meguro wards, with a large number of substitute-teaching assignments in junior and elementary schools across Tokyo.As part of my teaching experience, I learned how to work as a team with other teachers and prevail in stressful situations such as lesson plans not being provided for subsitute assignments. I made a positive impression on both students and staff, being requested to return to teach full-time at the school on multiple substitute-teaching assignments.
