		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been 6 months since I came home from Japan. It&#8217;s probably safe now to announce the semi-obvious: yes, I worked for NOVA. I didn&#8217;t have a pleasant time. This wasn&#8217;t because of the students, I might add. I had a great time getting to know them and befriending them, and I still keep in [...]]]></description>

I think he wanted to say &#8216;keen&#8217; but now I&#8217;m saying &#8220;strong for&#8221; at every opportunity.
Teacher: &#8220;What do you like to do in your free time?&#8221;
Student: &#8220;I play with my girlfriend&#8221;
Ooh la la.
It&#8217;s a bit unfair picking on the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One strange thing I&#8217;ve noticed about some students is that they take on accents when speaking English. The most common is American accents. It&#8217;s not that surprising, given that most of the English they encounter is American English &#8211; on television, in music, from their teachers or the many American (mainly military-based) people iving in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A while ago, I wrote about how 80% of students came to learn English for fun. I wrote that after 5 months of teaching. Now after 8 months, I want to revise that slightly. There are students that go to an eikaiwa to learn English, there are students that come to eikaiwa to have fun [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Your students will ask you a lot of questions about you. They&#8217;ll also gossip with each other about you. So if you start talking about something in your life that just happens to be relevant to the lesson, be careful about what you say. You may find that your stories about your life are spread [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s somewhat depressing to realise that when you teach English to your Japanese students, you may also be giving them a general education.
This is not the case for ever student, of course, but I have had students of all ages who seem to be learning basic geography, or history, or world issues through their English [...]]]></description>
