自 己 紹 介
A wonderful day dear students!
My name is Teacher Tobey. ^_^
Nice to meet you here!
I am what's called a Japanophile.
It means I love Japanese culture and its people! <3 <3 <3
At my university, I took up International Studies because I love learning about geography, world cultures, peoples and especially, their languages.
My TOEIC score is 955/990.
I have taught English for more than two
years now, from kids to adults and to the elderly. And I must say, the Japanese personality is very endearing to me. I'm so delighted to have met and befriended many Nihonjin because it has been my childhood dream to have many Japanese friends. This is why I'm also studying Nihonggo.
My dream in the future is to become a successful Anison and J-Pop singer and also a mangaka! In my free time, I rehearse a lot of English and Japanese songs. I also write and develop my own stories and characters so that in the future, I can get published in Shonen Jump Magazine! :-O
My style in teaching English is very cheerful, energetic and omoshiroii!
And if you have difficulty in speaking, that's alright, because I can speak a little Japanese. I can guide you to learning English the easy and fun way, so "Hazukashii garanaide ne?" ^_^
I am looking forward to meet you soon!
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu! :-D
Teacher Tobey gives such well-rounded classes!
He also knows so much about Japanese culture & language.
Not only is he funny but he also teaches very specific details of grammar!
My kids don't like studying English. But Teacher Tobey always has so many interesting topics from so many various subjects!
Now, they're always looking for him!
He can quickly catch our tiniest mistakes in grammar, punctuation, spelling, intonation and pronunciation, even when he's sick sometimes. Wow! How skillful! The translator app he shared is also very accurate, it helps so much with his advanced vocabulary.
I understand now why he is the top teacher and why the gap is so huge everytime, even before we enrolled.
I always wondered about it!
He definitely elevates the value of this school.
We appreciate you Teacher Tobey & we hope you are well-compensated financially by your school. You deserve a raise!

Thank you so much, Tobey.
It was a pleasant, tactful class as usual from the material based on the challenging article "Identify and Respond to Passive Aggression at Work" you kindly chose.
As I mentioned in the lesson, the thing I hate most is to be humiliated and embarrassed in front of other colleagues.
In general, bosses in Japanese companies tend to do this behavior, because they want to show how they are enthusiastic about their roles and loyal to their companies.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to continueing this topica at the next class.

As I said in the lesson, the table in this article is quite practical to avoid such harassment.
This article should be one one of material in a training program in companies.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to continueing this topica at the next class.

She hacked your Skype again, didn't she? I hope you are feeling okay, Tobey-sensei. I can understand how it feels to be constantly harrassed by a jealous co-worker out for revenge. Have already reported her to your manager? I hope they will TRULY help you, unlike from my experience.

Thank you so much, Tobey.

I believe that passive-aggressive behavior is one of countermeasure against authority harassment.
Meanwhile, supervisors do the passive aggressive behavior as one way of authority harassment.
We should learn how to deal with the passive-aggressive behavior in advance.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to continueing this topic at the next class.

Thank you so much, Tobey.
It was a pleasant, tactful class as usual from the material based on the interesting article "Scientists believe dinosaurs sounded like birds" you kindly chose.
It's not easy to change the dinosaur's voice in movies, because people have recognized the existing voice as dinosaur's sound, and the existing concept is too firm to be changed, even though the voice is based on the scientific fact.
Here is the answer of the synonym match.
1) disappeared = vanished
2) kinds = sorts
3) idea = opinion
4) examined = looked at
5) believe = think
6) led = conducted
7) controlled = regulated
8) movies = films
9) scary = frightening
10) future = upcoming
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class.
