ワーキングホリデー 報告その1

4 months have already gone since I came to Vancouver. Time flies so quickly. Finally I got a diploma of TESOL. A certificate is a mere pice of paper but I have no regrets what I did. I have learnt many things during this program. I could build up my confidence.

The way of teaching is completely different from Japanese style. Basically there are lots of STT [Student Taking Time] in the classroom and the students are allowed to use the Internet.
Even though the 4th grade students can handle laptop. It means that they can search whatever they want. I think the good teacher will be replaced by Google.

“The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.”William Arthur Ward

We’ll have to find something that a rob can’t do.


When it comes to my job, I got two jobs here. One is Japanese teacher, the other is Smak heath fast food. Japanese teacher is very interesting. I usually teach them some Kanji and read Japanese text book together. The contents are just like as elementary school as Japan.
It is nice opportunity for me to put into practice what I learnt at TESOL course.

Smak is a healthy fast food restaurant. I’ve been working in Aug three times a week.
Now that, my schooling is over so I decided to switch to full time shift. My co-workers come from everywhere like Russia, Philippines, Korea, China, and Japan. Multinational members are there. This is also nice place for me because I can have free meals. lol Just kidding!
Not only free meal, but also I can learn something new for me. Actually I’m not good at cooking so this will be a good lesson for my life.

I still have 8 moths left that I can stay here legally.

てくれた皆様ありがとうございました。
資格はただの紙1枚に過ぎませんが、チャレンジしてよかったなーと思います。

あと8ヶ月滞在できるので、まだいろんな事吸収できそうです。成功にこだわるんじゃなくて、自分の成長にこだわってこれからも過ごそうと思います。


[仕事とか]
週1ですが日本語学校の先生をやらせてもらっています。カナディアンに日本語を教えています。漢字学習や教科書読んだりですが、楽しくお仕事させてもらっています。

これからfull timeになりそうですが、SMAK---healthy fast food---で働いています。主にキッチンで材料刻んだりオーダー作ったりなどしてます。食材はローカルのものしか使っておらず、容器も全てコンポストできるので環境にも配慮。
健康や環境にも配慮してなおかつスピーディーに食べれるってこの理念すごいね。職場にはいろんな国籍の人がいて楽しく働いています。まだまだ覚えることがありすぎて半人前、4分の1人前ですが、きっとこの経験もどっかで生きてくるのではないかと信じてやっています。f:id:yoshifumish:20171122110000j:plain
