About Me

My name is Jeanne Beck and  I am into my second year working in Japan as an Assistant Language Teacher through the JET Program.   I earned my undergraduate degrees in East Asian Studies and English Education from the University of Missouri and am also currently  earning my masters degree in TESOL Education online through the same university while in Japan.  I am here in Japan with my husband Ryan and my cat whom we just call Kitty. I enjoy learning about other cultures, traveling, working with kids,  bike riding, swimming, video games, computers, reading and writing. Thank you for visiting my page!

Hi I was just wondering whether you could give any pointers to someone hoping to pursue a career in teaching English in a Japanese school?

HI Jeanne, Here’s an idea for you. My site MEET ME AT THE CORNER, Virtual Field Trips for Kids (www.meetmeatthecorner.org) has over 55 free kid-friendly video podcasts about hobbies, people, places and events in NYC, COlorado and San Diego. Check it out and see if it this site would be useful for your students.
