Hi! My name is Christopher Lowery I was born and raised in California. have also lived in Las Vegas. I have lived in Japan for over 20 years. I first came to Japan Through the U.S. Marine Corps. I fell in love with Japan, and after service I relocated. I worked for 10 years for the Hiroshima School District, where I served as an AET, ALT, AIE, and volunteer English teacher. I had many successful English teaching experiences; I have had English students who went on to pass the Eiken exam at level 2, Pre 1, and even 1! I have had students go overseas, and even take part in a Youth U.N. peace convention to make a speech. I've taught in community centers to many different children and adults. I have experience teaching business, conversation, TOEIC, TOEFL, EIKEN, and EIKEN JR. lessons. I hold TEFL and TESOL certifications. I love to see students meet their goals in English and in life, which is why I love to teach Period; But teaching is also a way I can build bridges, and I have been doing that my whole life.
The lessons that I offer are based on building general conversation and business English skills. Both courses offer a variety of vocabulary building and conversation opportunities, so there will be many chances to for speaking and listening! Although,I do not offer specific lessons for the many English tests such as Eiken, TOEIC, or TOEFL, I can answer any questions you many have or give tips on how to improve your score! Please, Don’t hesitate to ask. I am always trying to improve my program, so if there is a topic you would like to cover, I am always open to new ideas and topics. I am available for lessons on both Skype and Zoom. At this time, I can only do short lessons on Zoom. My courses are prepared For children or adults, so all are welcome! My hobbies are photography, trekking, RPG gaming, gardening, making NFTs’, and a bit of travel when I have the chance. I look forward to learning all about my student interests, goals and dreams, I’m sure it will make for great conversation and building of cultural bridges
