Self-Introduction
Hello,
My Name is Mark Christensen, but you may call me Mark. I will be your new ALT for 2019. I'm 30 years old, and I graduated from Northwest University. My home town is Snohomish, Washington, USA.
My favorite activities include climbing, photography, and cosplay. In America, I love listening to music by Keith Power and Marty O'Donnell. I also enjoy music composed by Yuki Kajiura and Yoko Kanno.
In college, I studied political science. I was fascinated by other countries and how they worked. I look forward to learning more about Japan.
As a child I was involved with camping and natural resource groups. This passion continued after college and I became a volunteer climb trainer with the American Lung Association.
Photography is a valuable tool, and as such I hope to use it to not only share my country with you, but also to share Japan with the world.
In the coming years I hope to learn Japanese, gain a greater understanding of your history and culture, and act as a cultural ambassador through supporting your English studies.
Thank you very much for this opportunity !
Sincerely,
Mark Christensen |
