About Me

I am currently working in the UK but hoping to move to Japan and teach english,my wife is Japanese and we have a little boy Kai.My wife and son are in Japan waiting for me so i have to pass !!!
I love sports,music and martial arts and enjoy reading allsorts of geeky books like warhammer 40000 lol.
I have visited Japan about 5 times before and loved it so would recommend it to everyone and i love the tv shows which match my wacky sense of humour.
I have absolutely no qualifications at all or any idea about English really,but have passed assignments first time so far :D When life throws an opportunity at you ....take it.

Luckily for me the teachers are really good especially the Head English teacher, she will generally explain the lesson to me and the students at the same time lol.

First 2 days of junior high (chu gakko)

Ok I completed the training in Mito which was interesting and fun, I managed to meet alot of interesting people from all over the world.
