I'm an online english teacher to Japanese and Taiwanese students. I know this job is very unusual that's why I am very blessed to have landed on this. I find it really enjoyable teaching them because I learn about their cultures and country. They are very nice and very polite to me as well. I feel like I'm not working, but just having fun chatting with the students. have you heard of online english teaching? do you have any experience about this? do you also enjoy like i do?

yes, teaching them requires a great deal of patience but what really makes me happy is that they are very eager to learn, it makes me want to teach them more and more everyday! :) thank you so much!

of course..sometimes when we focus to learn them, they divide their focus, a half for reading a book or hearing our instruction, and a half for playing... so you must be patient

I am also an English teacher like you. I teach Japanese students and also Chinese students. Like what you said It's like you are not working at all. You are just chatting with them. But in the case of my Chinese students we really have to use a book and it's more tedious than the Japanese classes. But still I am enjoying teaching both. I learned a lot about their culture. In addition to that, I got introduced into a broad range of topics particularly in current events economics and business, topics I don't really know about or care about before. But after having these classes with them I got interested in checking out CNN news and reading current news from the web so I can also say something during the class. They are very polite especially the Japanese students. They are so nice and humble. I love this JOB!

Of course it's a good idea to teach online.I welcome it. We can know more about other countries and make friends at the same time. Maybe when sometime we travel to the country, there are friends waiting for you. Isn't it amazing? But I am still worried,although millions of people are learning English in the world, not many people are lucky enough to have the chance as you.Besides, it needs a lot of patience and time.
