About Maiko
Hi, I'm Maiko! I'm a mom to a 4 year old who is growing up bilingually in Oregon (Japanese/English). Our son has sensory integration issues, which he's getting some help from occupational therapist. After getting my MA in Teaching English as a Second Language, I have taught ESL for more than 8 years, and is currently a faculty member at American English Institute at University of Oregon. マイコと言います、こんにちは!オレゴンでバイリンガル育児中。息子は感覚統合に少々問題があり、現在作業療法士さんと一緒にトレーニングをしています。仕事は、英語教授法修士→日本やアメリカで英語の先生→出産→翻訳→現在は、オレゴン大学の英語プログラムに落ち着いています。どうぞよろしく!
