You mentioned some students would be able to read the question on the board and some wouldn't unless they were older. Do you repeat the same lesson plan multiple times a day for each class that comes in? Or does the lesson change depending on the class grade? For example if you did this exact lesson for the day, would you do it pretty much exactly the same way 6-7 times during the day regardless of if the current class is 1st grader or 6th grade? Also thanks for the video!
@philosoflix8645

Volaju16 hey, great question. To clarify, each grade level(1st to 6th grade) will.have their own different lesson each week, seperate from the other grades. Also even if you teach at more than one school, all 4th graders will learn that weeks lesson for 4th grade and etc. example: this week all 4th graders in all the schools learn "i like apples" 5th graders across all schools are doing "do you play soccer?" and so on. (HOWEVER) teaching the same lesson isnt a problem I do it all the time. When you get a lesson plan I guarantee you will find a lesson that makes no sense to teach. I make up lessons or teach a lesson from a different grade. no problem. just make your games fun and make sure kids have fun. lol

Vivian Lam usually the impromtu lesson will be a short demo of how you would introduce the new words. They will most likely look for energy, clarity and loudness in your voice, how well and simple you introduce new words and sentences, as well as maybe what kinda game you would use but most likely not

i wonder if they go over grammar at all for explanation. like, you can drill as many vocab words into a kid as you want "sunny" and "cold" are easy ones. if you dont explain what "and" is then they will never learn that kneesandtoes is not a body part. ppl need to give children more credit to understanding grammar ya know? like "英語で、「と」は「and」です。" most kids would get something basic like that, and then even if its harder and they dont get the explanation the first time then drilling that every time would help too. vocab and grammar are both necessary to understand a language. i assume you do that too though! just sharing my thoughts about teaching

I too wanted to be an ALT teacher in Japan because I wanted to live there. LOL. I've been there twice as a tourist, and I just love everything there. I will be coming back this Autumn of 2017 for another vacation. What I really wanted to know is, if it was indeed true that the pre-requisite for ALT teachers for hire in Japan is that English should be the native language. I am an Asian, English is my second language, but I can speak fluently. If my case is possible, then I would really want to shift careers. Hahaha. Best of luck to you all the time. Have a great day!

Carlvin Ganados The requirements are to be a native level speaker, though you dont need to necessarily be a native. Also, an ALT is usually a stepoing stone position thqt helps you get further and onto better jobs. However the wage is really low, and not consistent, except with the Altia company. Hope this helped

+JuiceMyRandomness Thanks dude! This is 1 out of the 3 schools I teach at, it is pretty normal to teach at more than one school. If there is anything you want me to talk about related to teaching, I would totally do that. I can also show you more insightful differences between American and Japanese schools in general which I was already planning to do hahahahahaha
Amazing preparation!
Will adapt this for my lessons lmao. I teach disabled and autistic.
It was very nice, I have a request, I,m working for residential boarders. How to keep them engaged in their study at a time 6 to 7 section s in one room.
I finally watched mikel's place of work. I have often heard it in your broadcast on nico, so I was a little interested in that place.

Dear Mars, Nothing worth fighting for if it wasn't for your Kids. Give your child a BRIGHT future by teaching him/her to read in early age in a very efficient scientific way using one of those guaranteed exclusive reading programs because Kids Channels on KZread since 2007 are only presenting sight words. You won't loose anything.

Thank you for this! truly!
I'm 13 when I finish college I'm gonna get my bachelor's degree and go work for aeon where you teach Japananese kids english when you said 40 kids I freaked out like
Hello, I am currently researching schools and teaching positions in Japan...I was curious about the ALT vs Teacher positions.. have you held both and what is your view of them? Thank you for posting! Hope all is well!
Thank you so much ❤️
Great and funny content 🤣❤️
You mentioned some students would be able to read the question on the board and some wouldn't unless they were older. Do you repeat the same lesson plan multiple times a day for each class that comes in? Or does the lesson change depending on the class grade? For example if you did this exact lesson for the day, would you do it pretty much exactly the same way 6-7 times during the day regardless of if the current class is 1st grader or 6th grade? Also thanks for the video!

Volaju16 hey, great question. To clarify, each grade level(1st to 6th grade) will.have their own different lesson each week, seperate from the other grades. Also even if you teach at more than one school, all 4th graders will learn that weeks lesson for 4th grade and etc. example: this week all 4th graders in all the schools learn "i like apples" 5th graders across all schools are doing "do you play soccer?" and so on. (HOWEVER) teaching the same lesson isnt a problem I do it all the time. When you get a lesson plan I guarantee you will find a lesson that makes no sense to teach. I make up lessons or teach a lesson from a different grade. no problem. just make your games fun and make sure kids have fun. lol

Also some kids went to international kindergartens or take supplemental classes after school so they'll be able to read more so than those who can't. Currently an English teacher so an international kindergarten in kansai.
Interesting and helpful ! I was really wondering if I could sometimes use Japanese during my English lessons. Kakkoii !
I really want to work in Japan as an English teacher I hope I could find a job there 😃
hey friend thank you for the video, helped me a lot.
Wow, so the start of class is exactly like French class for Canadian kids

This video is much help, thank you! Some questions, how long do you have to stay at school for the day? When do you have to arrive at school and when do you get to leave?
It’s same method like in china I taught English in china for 5 years! Kids are so cute especially kindergarten but tiring 😁 God blessed teachers in the world 🌎

Hello thanks for sharing your video
Thank you for the wonderful video! I did my TESOL so I understand how a lesson is structured, but I have no teaching experience at all. I'm very nervous at how to go about it because I'm not sure if I really know how to "teach". I'm quite scared that I will get the impromptu lesson question during my JET interview in a bit over a week.... I don't really know how to go about it.

Vivian Lam usually the impromtu lesson will be a short demo of how you would introduce the new words. They will most likely look for energy, clarity and loudness in your voice, how well and simple you introduce new words and sentences, as well as maybe what kinda game you would use but most likely not
love it!
i wonder if they go over grammar at all for explanation. like, you can drill as many vocab words into a kid as you want "sunny" and "cold" are easy ones. if you dont explain what "and" is then they will never learn that kneesandtoes is not a body part. ppl need to give children more credit to understanding grammar ya know? like "英語で、「と」は「and」です。" most kids would get something basic like that, and then even if its harder and they dont get the explanation the first time then drilling that every time would help too. vocab and grammar are both necessary to understand a language. i assume you do that too though! just sharing my thoughts about teaching
I got a question: why don't japanese schools use whiteboards and markers to write on them? Why are they still using chalk?

A MG budget issues. Schools have like no funding for anythinggg its why you see such old equipment. An ALT is usually shared to many schools for that reason. Some ALTs can be sent to over 10 schools

I personally prefer chalk over whiteboard. The dark green background with bright script is far less irritating to look at after a long day than the shiny bright background with the dark script. Also, whiteboard markers kind of stink.
Woah that's great!

Hi! this video is absolutely helpful! Did you print and laminate the cards at school? Were the rest of the visual aids in the video provided by the school or did you make them all yourself? :O

Hey Ellie thanks for commenting! The stuff here was made at school before I started working but is easily something you can make at school. Generally you should be allowed to laninate and print using school resources.

This type of set up fits pupils from kinder to 2nd grade.. what grade were u teaching when u made this video?
Hi Mike sensei! Your video was really helpful and I really loved it. By the way, what is your nationality? Your English is perfect. I too wanted to be an ALT teacher in Japan because I wanted to live there. LOL. I've been there twice as a tourist, and I just love everything there. I will be coming back this Autumn of 2017 for another vacation. What I really wanted to know is, if it was indeed true that the pre-requisite for ALT teachers for hire in Japan is that English should be the native language. I am an Asian, English is my second language, but I can speak fluently. If my case is possible, then I would really want to shift careers. Hahaha. Best of luck to you all the time. Have a great day!

Carlvin Ganados The requirements are to be a native level speaker, though you dont need to necessarily be a native. Also, an ALT is usually a stepoing stone position thqt helps you get further and onto better jobs. However the wage is really low, and not consistent, except with the Altia company. Hope this helped

@Enkiko 6 be that as it may, it's part of the visa requirements to get the job that you're a native level speaker of English.
Seems like it takes a lot of energy. Must be fun for the kids, but needing to be so cheery must get exhausting at times.
How many classes you have to teach for a day? How many minutes per class?
Where do you get all of the resources for the lesson? Do you personally use the computer at the school and print them out? Or do you have to use your own computer and printer? Or are these resources already provided?
What is your salary
Do you work for Interac or you're under the BOE/direct hire?
