About five and a half years now.

What made you choose Japan to teach English?

To begin with, Japan is considered one of the safest countries in the world.

People are very polite and helpful to others.

And I heard you have fantastic food.

That's true.

These are some of the reasons that made me come here.

but nonetheless, very rewarding.

Shops, bus station, restaurants, gym.

Yeah, sounds convenient.

It is.

You can't beat the location.

What's something you don't like about your apartment?

I do like that it's noisy all the time.

Because I'm near the street and there are a lot of restaurants and bars in the area.

So I always hear some kind of noise.

I've heard Japanese people don't like foreigners very much.

You seem very friendly though.

Well, I'm used to interacting with foreigners because I'm a hotel receptionist.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
