Bio
Malcolm Murdoch
One of the best people I've had the privilege to work with. Ryan's one of the few genuinely curious people I've worked with, combining this with obvious enthusiasm for all tasks which were thrown at him. He's a quick learner who, more importantly, is able to build on what he's been taught. He's always had a good appetite for hard work and strong attention to detail. Hopefully he'll soon see the error of his ways and come back to us...

ก.ค. 2005 - ก.ค. 2007
For two years I was the sole English native speaker in a technical highschool in Japan. My students were mostly boys (90%) aged 15-18 years old.My role was to plan the entire annual curriculum, as well as teach and mark the students. Speaking and Listening were important aspects of the lessons, aided by a breadth of engaging materials and communication strategies.I planned quarterly speaking exams and tests which counted towards the students end of year English grade.As well as teaching students my role was also to facilitate and present in JTE (Japanese Teachers of English) seminars and forums. I was also selected to be a mentor to incoming foreign teachers and host training conferences in our prefecture.Living and working abroad was a very rewarding experience, one that I hope to try again in the future.
