Hey guys! It is Aiko with Schwagirl. I am an American English pronunciation coach.
Welcome to my podcast "The Voice of English"
The purpose of this podcast is to encourage English learners and also English teachers. We all share tips and points of how we can improve our English and become better communicators.
In Episode 12, I invited Yuko April Ito who is an English coach based in Japan.
Yuko teaches mainly Japanese women in Japan in 30s and 40s who would like to restart learning English. She focuses on "real" English which is actually spoken outside Japan as opposed to "classroom" English. Yuko visited the US when she was 14 years old and she realized that the world was so big! She shared her experience in the US and in other countries and why she started teaching "real" English.
Here are my notes:
English is the best language to communicate with people in the world Use English all day even in Japan so that you will be familiar with it Go out and see the world!
Here are the links to her social media
