Daniel先生
PAP上北沢校 Head Teacher

Hi, my name is Daniel and I am the Head Tea cher at PAP. I am originally from Auckland, New Zealand, but I have been living in Japan since 2006. I like movies, television, and all kinds of music.
Since moving to Japan, I have taught students of all ages. I became interested in teaching preschools after my daughter entered kindergarten. Since then I have been a full time, dedicated preschool teacher and enjoyed some of the best years of my career. I have taught many wonderful students over the past few years and look forward to making even more friends at PAP.

Mike先生

Hello, my name is Mike. Nice to meet you!
I was born and raised in Canada. I studied graphic design and worked as a sushi chef
before moving to Japan. I’ve been teaching English to preschool children for 23 years now… Time sure flies!
I used to be a babysitter so I love being around kids. The preschool environment allows me to do that as well as the other things I love to do such as sing, dance, play guitar, draw, and make crafts.
I specialize in the 1 to 3 year old classes, so I know the importance of having fun, using your imagination, and being energetic! At such a young age, a child’s first experience with English should be fun and memorable.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have taught many, many children though the years, including the very first English Pocket Preschool student, and am looking forward to meeting many more. Let’s have fun together!

Andy先生

Hello!
My name is Andy. I am from Portland, Oregon in the United States. Even though I was born in Los Angeles, California, I spent most of my youth in Oregon and would visit my family every year. Before becoming a teacher in Japan, I was a lifeguard and swim instructor for children and adults all ages. I also studied human psychology, philosophy and Japanese in University. I attended Aoyama University as an exchange student when I first came to study abroad in Japan. I enjoyed my experience so much I decided I wanted to stay. I have been teaching children for more than 5 years and have lived in Japan for almost 3 years. I enjoy learning just as much as teaching and I hope to help more students learn and grow their abilities for many years to come. Let’s have fun learning together at PAP.
