自己紹介
こんにちは、Manami先生です。
日本で保育士として働いたのち、英語を勉強するため、カナダへ。
英語環境での保育士経験、現地の日本語学校勤務を経て、現在はフランス語のインターナショナルスクールで保育士として働いています。また、同校の放課後クラブ活動にも参加し、折り紙クラブ、日本文化クラブの運営も行っています。(2024年5月現在)
日本の素晴らしい文化が少しでも広がればと、このサイトを始めました。
2013年、カナダへ来た時には全く英語が話せず、バンクーバーのESLスクールビギナークラスからのスタートでした。
『夢は叶う』をモットーに走り続けています。
夢を追う方々の後押しになればとyoutube配信や日本語でのブログも行なっています。
