Kazuma Okubo In this time, we taught how to raise plants for elementary school students. At first, we divided and then made a pair with elementary school student. My pair was Juan who is half Hawaiian and half Samoan. I taught how to read and understand a book. However he was fourth grade student, therefore he had good English skill better than me. I was so shocked, but some time he had questions that very difficult and asked me then I could understand and taught questions. In my perspective, I was gotten accustomed to teaching for children gradually. After that I taught how to raise plants to Juan. In my opinion, I could teach smoothly. Also Juan could do that smoothly. Next, I taught same things to Titania who was kindergartner. At first, I taught how to introduce herself to Titania. She tried to say something actively, therefore I could teach so easy. But, sometimes she could not understand what I want to say. Maybe my pronunciation was really bad, so could not understand my opinion. I have to practice and change my skill of pronunciation more and more. After that I taught how to raise plants. She also could do that smoothly like Juan. In this time, I learned many things such as push and pronunciation from elementary school student. I have to change and practice very hard. Next time, I will teach actively and talk fluently. I am looking forward to next time.
