   Renaissance Reading:

   The Accelerated Reader （AR） Program is a computerized reading enrichment program that combines great children’s literature with computer skills．As an individualized reading program, it is designed to motivate students to read more and to read good literature．Students of different abilities can use this program．It is not a competitive program but one that improves any student's reading ability．

   Here is how it works．Students select books in their reading range from our Accelerated Reader Selection and read it at their own pace．Once the student has completed the book, he/she is ready to take an AR quiz．Each quiz consists of 5, 10, or 20 multiple choice comprehensive questions about the book．

   After taking the quiz, the computer shows the student how many questions he/she answered correctly, shows the correct answers for missed questions, and praises the students' efforts with an on-screen personalized message．Passing the quiz assures the teacher and the parent that the child actually read and understood the book．Each student tests independently—reading the quiz questions himself/herself．

   The computer keeps track of reading points, books, and average test scores, as well as other data．A student may test on a book only once and should, therefore, have thoroughly read and understood the contents before taking the quiz．Each student is responsible for reading the screen to be sure the quiz, by title and author, is the correct one he/she wishes to take．

   Students are recognized for their accomplishments with praise from the teachers and special recognition at the classroom level when individual and/or classroom goals are met．

   P．T．0．

   We have an active Parent -Teacher Organization．They have monthly meetings, check the calendar for the meeting times and places．

Getting paid to talk about the World Cup is a great job. I’m not a football commentator(评论员),though-just an English teacher in japan.
    I came to japan two years ago, and didn't think I would stay, but japan has that effect on you. People after endup tiving bere longer than they planned. I think it’s  best to teach in a biggest eity where there are onther foreigners to  mix with. Rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bovd. Many people choose to live in Tokyo, of course, which is good for the nightlife factor. But I’d say that for geueral quality of living, cities of neither too large nor too small, like   Sapporo where I live, are better choices.
    I teach English  privately, which means I’m my own boss. If you want to devote yourself to private teaching, it’s well worth doing a TEFL eourse  first. Beeause your lessons will be much better for it. The problem with private teaching is finding students; it took me a year to build up a full schedule(日程表)of private lessons, so I started out teaching in schools part time.
    Most of my foreign friends here work full-time for big English conversation schools. The salary is fine to live on. But whether you can save money depends on how much going out and traveling you do here.
    The schools are reluetam to take  time off -even teachers with tichets for the England-Argentina game had trouble getting the day off.
