Why is it good to use a bilingual English teacher?

Have you ever learnt English from a teacher that can't speak Japanese, and had a bad experience? Have you taken a lesson and not really known what the teacher was saying? The teacher could see you were having trouble, and tried and tried to help you, but no matter how hard they tried to explain the point in English, it only made it worse. You also tried so hard but it felt like a waste of time. It is nice to be able to ask questions in Japanese when you want to.

Beginners and intermediate level students can often get frustrated and feel this way. Use a Japanese speaking teacher to avoid these problems.
