I’m curious as I’m trying to expand my resources and am interested in making the move to teach in Japan. Any guidance you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated! Right now I use websites like:
– Twinkl
– Teach-This
– Teachers Pay Teachers
– Tays Teaching Toolkit
– Games4esl
– iSLCollective

I use those and have a have a Pinterest account I only use for school. I’ve found several blogs by individual teachers that way.

Everything there made by teachers working in Japanese kindergartens and PreSchools. Free games by theme, songs, storytime, flash cards, classroom behavior management, etc
People always forget the best for younger kids (2-6) is:
super simple songs
They have the best free flashcards under the sun.

What kind of teaching are you looking to do? ALT work? Eikaiwa? What level/age of students? There’s a lot of stuff out there, to be sure, but knowing this information could help us provide sources more relevant to what you actually want to do.

Tay’s teaching toolkit is really awesome for PowerPoint games. She makes them all herself and gives them out for free. They’re super engaging with themes kids love (Pokémon,Minecraft, Naruto etc.)
