Texas · English Teacher
Hi, my name is Jay Faris
Well, I guess the best way to know me is to check out my
youtube channel.
And... I lived in Japan for eight years and I can speak the language fairly
well. I have also traveled to Australia, Hong Kong and Korea. Traveling is
something I like to talk about, but really I like to talk about anything,
from politics to cooking or anything in between. I like to let my students
come up with the topics they want to talk about.
As a teacher
I am a third generation teacher from the state of Texas. That is to
say my grandfather was a teacher; my father is a teacher and I am a
teacher. And we were all licensed in the state of Texas.
My degree is in Theater and licenses are in Theater and
History. However, because my family owns and operates its own school I
have had the opportunity to teach various subjects. Among them were
Drafting and Computer Aided Drafting, Reading, Writing, History (World
and U.S.), Geography, Theater and Basic Japanese.
I have also taught English as a Second Language (ESL) in
my family school and also in various schools in Tokyo since 1997.
