Description
Additional note:
Currently, a guest is scheduled to stay until September 7, 2025, so we can accommodate from September 8 to October 3th, 2025, onward.
I run an English class in one of the rooms of my home in Kasuya District, Fukuoka Prefecture.
My students range from 2 to 50 years old. Each class consists of 2 students, and lessons are held only three days a week. We have a structured curriculum, and with just 2 students per class, For someone experienced in teaching, the overall task is not difficult. However, we have two 2-year-old students who are very sensitive. If someone is not used to playing with children, it will be challenging to teach them English. Your tasks will include reading picture books and flashcards, checking writing, singing English songs, practicing the same sentences to answer questions in English, and helping improve speaking, reading, writing, and listening skills.
Your work schedule will be three days a week:
Hourly wage: 950 yen
Tuesday from 15:00 to 20:00
Wednesday from 15:00 to 20:00
Thursday from 15:00 to 20:00
We are looking for a workawayer who is an English teacher or a preschool teacher or a nursery teacher and can stay for at least one month. The ideal candidate should genuinely enjoy teaching English and be responsible and sincere in providing support.
Additionally, we prefer individuals who are comfortable communicating solely in English during you stay here. Therefore, we apologize, but if you prefer to speak Japanese, we kindly ask you to seek other hosting opportunities.

What else ...
In my area, there's a famous shrine known for its blessings for pregnancy and easy delivery. Many people from different prefectures visit this shrine for that purpose.
Additionally, my area offers numerous hiking trails, climbing routes, and historic sites designated by the national government. It's a location that provides the best of both worlds, with proximity to the city and the natural beauty of the countryside and mountains.
Getting around is quite convenient. The nearest station is just a 5-minute walk from my house. If you're headed to Hakata station, it's a short 30 to 40-minute train ride, with just one transfer. Alternatively, you can take a direct bus from my house to Hakata station, which takes approximately 60 minutes without any transfers.

She is a hard and a very motivated, energetic and responsible girl.
She helped me make a lot of sentences in English.
I think the hosts who have her are very lucky!
We hope she will come back again.
I helped them with everyday tasks and learning English for nearly 2 weeks (mid-May 2023). And I met Mie and saw her teaching English to children once.
