Using the news when teaching higher level students

Using the news to teach high level students in Japan

Struggling to come up with something interesting for your English Language Lesson in Japan? Why not use the news. It's current, topical and will have a good range of vocabulary that higher level students should be comfortable with. Here's an example...

http://www.theguardian.com/media/mediamonkeyblog/2013/jun/28/japanese-tv-language-barrier

Remember, more teachers are likely to contact you for a language lesson if you keep your profile up to date, have a professional photograph and a video introduction.

Good luck teaching students in Japan.

Welcome to the OrangoJapan Blog

Welcome to the OrangoJapan Blog - A Blog for Language Teachers and Students in Japan

So this is the first post on the OrangoJapan blog. The plan is to feature content, information, advice, thoughts and musings which will hopefully be of relevance or perhaps interest to language teachers and language students living in Japan. The blog won't be filled out by one person, but by various people involved with the running of OrangoJapan.com or OrangoTeacher.com as well as hopefully some language teachers and language students. 

Have fun teaching and learning languages. Bye.
