Matthew Leal B. Toral

I am currently doing a teaching assistant internship in Munakata Fukuoka. I have taught several English classes in various public schools around the area while working towards obtaining my TEFL certification in the evening. I have experience teaching a variety of ages ranging from 4th to 8th grade

Worked as an intern at the linguistics department of De La Salle University. I was mainly responsible for the creation of promotional materials and the vetting of papers for an upcoming linguistics conference taking place at the university. I also assisted and attended several smaller linguistics presentations throughout the year

I used to work as cleaning staff at a hostel in Sapporo while I studied Japanese, this was both to help cover the slightly higher cost of living in Japan as well as to help learn the language. It helped me learn to be a team player and a hard worker since all the hostel staff were rather close and I did not want anyone to have to suffer if my work was not up to standard.
