These Japanese kids are good! But I bet it's because you're a good teacher ;)

[fernandohuamani]

In Southern part of Japan, AETs (not ALTs) wear shorts during summer. (Elementary schools) Home room teachers, too.

[tricekarmichael]

[dreamchaser171]

You seem like an excellent teacher =)

[1stNationer]

@dreamchaser171 thx

[geezwoman]

There's no team teaching with a Japanese Teacher of English?

[sdurameshi19]

Can't wait till I get to do this.

[zachywackyt]

"Let's study Engrish!!" Haha adorable.

[JesseHiraya]

If I end up as an ALT for elementary school, I'm totally going to wear a track suit to class if I can get away with it.

[MrHappyAxe]

@JesseHiraya Jeans are the way to go man!! heh...

[kebunsha]

Thanks for posting this. You got a good group and Im sure you had a big hand in motivating them.

[karekora]

I notice you are wearing quite casual clothes. Is this OK?

[1stNationer]

Thanks for watching my upload and for commenting.

There is no rule for me to wear a suit. I could, but I don't have to. Most Japanese elementary teachers wear jogging outfits. At least I am wearing a blazer. lol

[CharlesXavier]

No means to nit-pick, but where is the Japanese teacher? I thought ALTs usually help the Japanese teacher teach English, no?

[1stNationer]

Only in theory...;)

[CharlesXavier]

So, what does that mean?

[krazeekd09]

as an ALT myself, that means 99% of the time the Japanese teachers sit back and let you lead the class.

[CharlesXavier]

Cool. So was what you expected, or were you surprised when the Japanese teachers gave you the lead?

[darcyperkins]

@CharlesXavier when i taught esl in jhs in japan the teacher was there 99% of the time but often let me as an ALT do/lead certain portions of the class
