My Best Teaching Is One-on-One

一対一が僕のベスト

Of course, I team teach and do special lessons, etc.

当然、先生方と共同レッスンも、特別レッスンの指導もします。

But my best work in the classroom is after the lesson is over --
going one-on-one,
helping individual students with their assignments.

しかし、僕の一番意味あると思っている仕事は、講義が終わってから、
一対一と
個人的にその課題の勉強を応援することです。

It's kind of like with computer programs, walking the client through hands-on.
The job isn't really done until the customer is using the program.

まあ、コンピュータプログラムにすると、得意先の方に出来上がった製品を体験させるようなことと思います。
役に立たない製品はまだ製品になっていないと同様です。

Progress on my first novel, Economics 101, a Novel, Rough Draft

The first half of my desert island romance is a college romance. I think It's finally ready to be read -- chapters 01 to 09 in my blog.

The blurb (for now):

Bobbie and Karel are single, early-thirties returned missionaries with a lot of emotional baggage, returning to school to pursue advanced degrees in anthropology. Can their mid-twenties friends Kristie and Dan help them to get safely together in time for their fieldwork in an island country?

Rating: clean romance, but contains some discussion of sexual matters.

Something less than 90,000 words, not including the second half (chapters 10 and beyond).

I'll be extracting it from my blog to libreoffice docx and pdf, so anyone who prefers that over blog, let me know.

Warning: The second half (the desert island part) is not yet ready for prime time, and will take some time to finish the move to the planet Xhilr.

(Here's a little about how this novel got started.)
