Hello there!
I’m Sandro from Germany and I teach English and German at IHCWAY. In Japan,everything is really new and exciting to me. The reason for my stay here is to get to know Japanese language and culture as well as I possibly can.
So, I am really looking forward to getting to know as many people as possible. I like to think that my work at IHCWAY lets me do just that: share experiences with many people from a different culture – and if I can help others to improve their English at the same time, much the better.
When it comes to learning foreign languages, believe me, I’ve had my fair share: I speak not only English and German, but am fluent also in Italian and French.
It is never easy to learn a new language; whether one is just at the beginning or a bit more advanced – it always takes a lot of effort and hard work to reach that next level. The good thing is, you are not the only one having difficulties! And as a teacher I want to guide you and help you achieving your goal in a fun and relaxed atmosphere with lessons tailored to your individual interests.
I am really looking forward to hearing from you.

Sandro

　 Hi! I am Joy Villar. I am from the Philippines, and I am here in Japan right now as an exchange student studying, among other things, the Japanese Language.
I only started learning the Japanese language formally around a year ago, so I understand well the feeling of wanting to learn the language more, wanting to improve in using the language more.
I have been working at IHCWAY for a while now, but I can say that I like teaching in IHCWAY because the environment is relaxed and the student and the teacher have more room for interaction. The student can speak more, and the teacher can focus more on helping that student improve their language skills.
Learning a language is, I admit, hard. But if you have the interest in learning it, if you have the perseverance for it, then I believe that you will learn the language and improve in it easily.
So make the most out of each lesson by speaking a lot and asking a lot of questions. Don't worry about making mistakes, because making mistakes is a big part of the learning process.
Good luck, and I hope you have fun learning the language as much as we have fun teaching them!

Joy
