High school English support (ages 15–18)
English gets much harder in high school: more vocabulary and grammar, longer reading passages and real essay writing, along with bigger goals such as university entrance exams and Eiken Grade 2 or Pre-1. Drawing on my experience teaching in junior and senior high schools, I support each student from keeping up with class to preparing for exams.
Who it’s for
- Students finding high school English difficult
- Students who want steadier test results
- Students preparing for university entrance exams
- Students aiming for Eiken Grade 2 or Pre-1
- Students who want real, usable English through conversation with a native speaker
How lessons work
Lessons are one-to-one and planned around the student’s school, target university and goals. Alongside reviewing class work and preparing for school tests, I offer Eiken Grade 2 and Pre-1 preparation, including interview practice. For university entrance exams, I offer the preparation below.
Conversation practice with a native teacher builds English that works in real life, not only on tests.
University entrance exam preparation
I prepare students for the English section of university entrance exams, focusing on the question styles and admission routes of their target universities.
- The Common Test (共通テスト): reading and listening
- Universities’ own exams: long reading passages, translation and essay writing, including free-writing tasks
- Raising scores in external tests (Eiken, IELTS) for universities that accept them
- English interview practice for recommendation-based and AO admissions (総合型選抜・学校推薦型選抜)
Lessons are 60 minutes, one-to-one and online via Google Meet. See prices.
