My Best Teaching Is One-on-One

一対一が僕のベスト

Of course, I team teach and do special lessons, etc.

当然、先生方と共同レッスンも、特別レッスンの指導もします。

But my best work in the classroom is after the lesson is over --
going one-on-one,
helping individual students with their assignments.

しかし、僕の一番意味あると思っている仕事は、講義が終わってから、
一対一と
個人的にその課題の勉強を応援することです。

It's kind of like with computer programs, walking the client through hands-on.
The job isn't really done until the customer is using the program.

まあ、コンピュータプログラムにすると、得意先の方に出来上がった製品を体験させるようなことと思います。
役に立たない製品はまだ製品になっていないと同様です。

What's wrong with the economy?

I'll tell you what's wrong with the economy:

Too many greedy people.

And the worst greed of all is when people are making well more than they need to get by, and still insist on working 80 hour weeks.

Chronically working too hard does not display any sense of social responsibity. It's bad for your health and for your family life, too.

It's the same kind of behavior that made Microsoft and INTEL too big. And GM and AIG, too. It's not good for the company either, in the end.

If you have more than enough, be responsible. Share the work.
