I am always looking for ways to improve the effectiveness of my teaching, especially on how best to plan classes and to prepare for unexpected eventualities, such as when classes are suddenly switched to online during the Coronavirus pandemic. In reflection, I have learnt that my PC skills are adequate enough but need to be better polished to cope with the demands of online teaching, and I think I could improve these skills even further since online classes appear to be a lesson format which is now the expected norm. In terms of my classes, I always look at ways to improve the way in which students can learn better, and for my compulsory Active English classes I try and focus on students’ motivation. I do this by trying not to make lessons boring for them, focus on topics they can relate to, such as sports, music, shopping etc. and giving students more opportunities to improve their output. I have found that students switch off when they hear the teacher talking or explaining things all the time, and so they need output in which I let students speak together in pairs or small groups focusing particularly on their fluency and communication. Also, I stress to them that it doesn’t matter if they make any mistakes - as they can learn from their mistakes - as long as they try hard and the goal of communicating has been achieved.

●9.学生の課外活動に対する支援(本学のサークルの部長・顧問としての活動)
Every Tuesday morning at 09:00, after Ronald Sensei’s English Breakfast Club, I have set up an unofficial English Club focusing on the board game of Scrabble. Scrabble is a word game in which players score points by placing tiles, each having a single letter, onto a game board. The tiles must form words that, in crossword fashion, read left to right in rows or downward in columns, and be included in a standard dictionary or lexicon. This game is good for students as it not only improves their conversation skills by speaking to a native English teacher one-to-one, and other students in English, but also improves their vocabulary and word knowledge. I have a regular attendance of about eight students.
