Who is Manda's English Playroom

Hi, my name is Amanda!

Welcome to Manda's English Playroom!

​

I have been living and teaching in Japan for over 9 years. I am married to my Japanese husband and also the proud mama to two very energetic children.

​

I went to St. Cloud State University in Minnesota, USA. There I received a bachelors in 2D Design (printmaking, drawing, and painting). I have certifications for TELS and as an assistant for Japanese daycare centers by the Chiba Prefectural Office. 

​

I have worked as an ALT in Yamaguchi and worked as a teacher at International Schools in Japan. I also have experience teaching online.

​

I would love to share a fun and playful way, that is different from traditional English learning, with parents who are trying to teach their children English.

​

I can offer a variety of activities such as pretend play, sensory play using the five senses, games, crafts and art. I hope that these activities will not only be fun for the children, but also provide an opportunity for moms and dads to learn how they can use English at home.

​

By having fun while learning, children will develop confidence, have a positive attitude, and will naturally acquire English skills. I hope you will join me in having fun!
