I am currently a 7th Year Osaka CNET. I have taught primarily high schools. From sports schools to technical high schools as well as English Intensive. I have been a Facilitator for six of my seven years. I worked for Osaka city and Izumi city for 5 years before CNET as a member of the JET program again focused on junior and senior high schools with some primary schools. I have a degree in Computer Engineering from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.

Researching Using YouTube for Required Assignments

Due to the Covid-19 emergency, the Osaka City native English teachers (CNETs) were tasked with creating supplemental video lessons for all of Osaka’s public elementary 4th, 5th and 6th graders and all junior high school students. We made 36 videos in total. Using YouTube data metrics, we were able to assess how many students actually viewed the videos and get detailed data on their viewing habits.
