"My children met a great teacher to help them learn Spanish and also about the culture of Ecuador. The teaching style, combining arts/crafts with language education, is very unique and enjoyable for the children. Since the teacher speaks English and Japanese as well, the children can ask questions in both English and Japanese. In this sense, the school is like an immersion program. I recommend this school to a wide range of students, from small children to adults. This school, 'ATSUMARUTOKORO, Punto de Encuentro,' is an excellent place for opening children's minds to the global community and the importance of understanding other cultures!"
“Dear Jacque, thank you for your lessons. I keep a record of your lessons every time. As I wrote in that comment. In your class, you also share your own opinions about each student's response, so the students feel that English conversation is established. The students are happy and smile. The content of the class is very easy to understand and polite. Plus, you have the skills to attract the interest of the students during the class. Since you have a lot of worksheets, I enjoy participating every time. Also, you have goals and dreams, you are ambitious and challenging, you are trusted by others, you are polite, you can make objective and calm judgments. You are my lovely teacher. We look forward to continuing your guidance in the future. With love, Keiko Yagi”
"¡...We talk for 90 minutes, and 3300 yen + TAX is a steal!! The cultural exchange is also fun. Jacque is a kind teacher who will answer any questions you may have by email..."
