My goal is to create a meaningful, safe and social learning environment where students can interact and connect with one another. This is an introductory class to learn about the Tokyo Yakult Swallows of the Nippon Professional Baseball League. Students will learn about the Yakult Swallows stars from the past decade, what North American players who have played with the Swallows, current Japanese players with the Swallows and what moves the Swallows have made so far in the off season. Once the material is covered, I will open the virtual floor for a discussion-based class that will help students build speaking and listening skills. Students will have opportunities to share their input and listen to others.
Learning Goals
Public speaking, active listening, supporting ideas and opinions.

Teacher expertise and credentials
With over 25 years of coaching experience at the amateur, collegiate and international levels, I appreciate that statistics are an important part of the sport.
For the past twelve years, I have operated Last Raps Baseball, a North Vancouver, BC, based business that provides baseball instruction to those who are aged 8 to 18 years old.
Though I hold formal education with an Honours degree in Business Administration, a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in English, and a Bachelor of Education degree, I have not formally taught in the classroom. Baseball has been my life long passion, and I have chosen to do my teaching between the chalk.
At the conclusion of our camps and clinics, we give baseball cards to the children who attend our instructional sessions. I believe that the way children become engaged in the sport is to play, watch and listen. Providing baseball cards to the children help them learn about the sport on many different levels.
