Teachers

I started Atlanta English School in 2012 to make a positive impact on the lives of the students in our community of Fujigaoka, Meito-ku, Nagoya. Already we have taught over 1100 students. Our goal is to prepare our students for the global society of the 21st century. We know that having confidence in English is just a start, but it's a very important component. All of us here at Atlanta, the teachers, the staff, and the management, are committed to excellence in English education. Our name comes from my hometown of Atlanta, Georgia, a city famous for its warm and welcoming attitude. We hope you feel welcome here, too!
