新規ALTとして、ソナリ・デュッタ先生が着任されました。ソナリ先生はイギリスのご出身で、日本が大好きだそうです。徳島で生活できること、北高生と一緒に英語の勉強ができることを楽しみにされて、来県されました。毎週月・木曜日に国際英語科の授業、英会話・ディベート部でお世話になります。以下は、ソナリ先生からのメッセージです。

My name is Sonali Dutta and I am excited to work with the students, teachers and staff of Tokushima Kita High School as your new Assistant Language Teacher this year.

I am from the UK and my family is Indian. As well as English, I speak an Indian language called Bengali. I also speak Spanish because I studied this at school and university. I am now trying to learn Japanese while living in Tokushima.

Before starting my new role, I worked at a publishing company because I love to read. I graduated in 2014 with a Bachelors degree in English and Related Literature from the University of York, UK. In 2013 did a study abroad summer at Mount Holyoke College in America.

I have been to Japan twice before and visited places including Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and Hakone. I enjoy trying Japanese food, visiting temples and shrines and also museums. I loved Japan so much that I wanted to live here, so I am very excited to be working as an ALT in Tokushima. I am excited to learn more about Japanese culture including tea ceremony and ikebana.

I am passionate about helping students enjoy and explore the English language. If you have any questions, would like to practice speaking in English or just want to chat, please don`t hesitate to get in contact. I am looking forward to working with you this year!
