Product Description
While teaching English in Japan, some of the roles I feel I have been assigned include: kindergarten teacher, jail warden, prison guard, drill sergeant, babysitter, parent, big brother, coach, entertainer, counselor, therapist. But the one role that I often have trouble convincing myself that I am really performing is English instructor at a university. The editors have selected stories and articles by teachers at leading Japanese universities and language schools. True and true to life essays from the near tragic to the comic, but all educational. A must for future gaijin teachers.
