Descripción
*Hopefully, I'd love to go to Cambodia for working as soon as possible. (Update: 28th November, 2024)

Until last February, I had worked as an English teacher for children at kindergartens in Japan over for 3 years. Now, I'd love to explore the world (Particularly, Ireland) more, optimistically compare the life in Japan with other places, to improve my English skills further, interact with local people & kids in the different countries & experience new things.
Speaking of Ireland, I studied English & did a 1st homestay in Dublin 10 years ago. I've literally never forgotten the lovely memories there & I've become into Irish culture so much. (*For example, I love the films by John Carney, River Dance, Guinness & Magners.) After having stayed in Dublin, I've traveled to 11 countries/regions.
I am an open-minded individual, eager to use my linguistic abilities, have collaborative nature, & problem solving skills to explore my careers. I'm always impressed by beautiful nature, arts & adorable stuff.

Que habilidades tienes?
As I have much experience about working & volunteering for children, I'm confident about getting along with kids (Specifically, aged 3 ~ 15), the ways to treat them & teaching skills. I'm good at Japanese calligraphy & Japanese paper-craft arts (origami). *I'm actually interested in studying child psychology & always general psychology is what I've been focusing on for making myself become better & happier.
I also worked at the airport in Tokyo as a member of the multi-lingual ground staff for 2 years.
Whilst I stayed in Australia for 2 months as a working holiday, I taught Japanese language to Australian students online & worked as an English tutor for a 4 year-old Japanese girl.
I used to play the electronic piano for 10 years, badminton for 6 years & swim for 4 years.

When I was 6 years old, my mother took me to the cinema to see "Harry Potter & Philosopher's Stone" then I was literally fascinated by the film. After that, I started getting interested in English, British & Irish cultures, English films, shows & music, differences from my country Japan, world's history & European historical architectures.
My current hobbies are learning English (Especially, slangs & different accents) by YouTube or Instagram & yoga. I used to get into figure skating for watching & doing. I have a lovely parakeet aged 10 & love animals. I also have 2 sweetest nieces who are 3 & 5 years old. I like to play chess, Mario Kart & Minecraft with my friends. I am a big fan of Japanese noodle (ramen, udon & soba), tea & potatoes!

Natsumi spent 3 weeks at the second school to teach English Language and to motivate the kids learn. Of course, all students here really like her teaching and like playing game or outside class activities with her so much. During her stay, she learned a lot about our culture and shared about her country culture also. She spent her free time… read more

I stayed here about for 3 weeks (28th January~14th February, 2025). The whole experience was amazing as I extended my stay. (*I was supposed to be there only for 2 weeks.) I stayed at the 2nd school with 2 Cambodian teachers. They were friendly & always cared about me. We sometimes had dinner & an interesting conversation together. When a festival… read more took place in pagoda near the school, the Cambodian teachers took me there by motorcycle & we had much fun.
My work schedule was teaching 3 classes at 3~6 pm on Mondays~Fridays. Although there weren't any trainings in advance or specific lesson plans, I think I did my best for my students as I have some experiences to teach children English. I used the textbook to teach English grammar, had free conversations, played some games & activities in English, & so on. If you have never taught English or aren't confident of your English skills (*more than conversational level), it would be a little bit challenging honestly. However, I would recommend the Work Awayers if they're interested in working here, & would like to experience something new & special.
The all students were lovely & I was even impressed when they tried to speak to me in Japanese. Even after I got back to Japan, I've been receiving messages or video calls from my students, which makes me can't stop missing them.
For my 2nd & 3rd weeks, I had the other Work Awayers (*volunteer teachers). We got close & often explored the village by bike or walk to visit pagodas & buy coffee in our free time. During the weekends, Mr. Sokear made a plan for us, like a day trip. I didn't have much time to spend with Mr. Sokear as I mainly stayed at the 2nd school, but he was considerate all the time. I had a lovely time when we all had dinner & drank beer together at times, went for a day trip & meditated (*like yoga) after class. I appreciate Mr. Sokear to give me such a great opportunity to immerse myself in the real suburb of Siem Reap & interact with the local people.
I was enough satisfied with the accommodation, but the life was very interesting & way too different from where I live. If you're a curious & open-minded person, you would be able to enjoy every moment like I did.
Lastly, thank you so much for Mr. Sokear & the Cambodian teachers who got involved with me. Hopefully, I'd love to visit here again when I go back to Cambodia near in the future.

I stayed here for 3 weeks. As I had a bad experience in the previous Work Away, Donna & her family welcomed me such as one of their family members and they literally made rest of my days in Ireland. Donna & her husband are a lovely, easygoing and considerate couple. Their kids, especially the 2 boys, are full of energy but beautiful. I enjoyed… read more
