Welecome!

My name is Ralph Duncans Jr. I am an English teacher working at SBS in Imafuku Turumi. During the many years I have taught here, I have witness tremendous achievements by students from reading English and learning how to use a dictionary at the age of two years old to a five year student speaking and writing English sentences he thought of himself. There have been many such achievements that I have seen over the years. I will share these experiences with you. I hope you enjoy them.

I will be happy when he starts finding three to four words in the time allotted.  The one year old student asked for the ABC placard himself as soon as he saw me grab a dictionary. I am anticipating the three year old student to pass the phonics test ...
