Example: (We understand each family's situation, but we kindly ask for your cooperation as much as possible 🙇‍♀️) ⭕️ Want to bring their favorite stuffed animal for comfort → Upon promise not to touch it during the lesson. ⭕️ Feeling nervous and want to join with a parent → It's fine as long as it’s for reassurance, not for help during the lesson ⭕️ Want to share something with the teacher → After use, we’ll encourage to put the item away. ❌ Accessible toys or an untidy environment → Distractions and avoids concentration. ❌ TV left on → Avoids disrupting child’s concentration. ❌ Family members entering room or screen, interaction to the child → Especially for families with siblings, we ask for your cooperation. ～～～～～～～ 🌼【Items to Prepare for the Lesson】🌼 Please prepare the following if necessary: ・Writing utensils ・Notes or a notebook
 🌼 The first lesson will mainly be an introduction, so these items are not mandatory. 🌼 If possible, it would be helpful if you could share any questions in advance via chat ◎ ～～～～～～～ Finally… 🌼【Role of the Lesson】🌼 The most common question I receive is “My English hasn’t improved. What should I do?” From my personal experience, the key to improve language skills is consistency and repetition. If … ・You take 45-minute lessons 7 days a week = 5.25 hours ・Calculation based on 126 hours (168 hours in a week -6 hours of sleep) ・This sums up to = 5.56% of "time exposed to English."
 For reference, when I learned Spanish from scratch: ・20-hour weekly course (45-minute lessons + 15-minute break, 4 times a day, 5 days a week) = 15 hours ・This sums up to = 8.93% of "time exposed to Spanish." With this schedule, I reached a B2 level in Spanish within a year.
 ーーーーー Spanish B2 Level: Upper Intermediate. This means using Spanish fluently for practical communication in work and social settings. It is equivalent to TOEIC scores of 780–850 in English. ーーーーー Based on the above, I recommend all students to continue lessons and repeat practice. I am here to help maintain motivation and track progress, so if you're aiming for improvement for yourself or your child, or if there is a clear time limit for lessons, please discuss the lesson frequency with your family! Thank you for your understanding 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️
