Hi, guys.
It's been so busy recently!! so I can't update the blog cuz no time..
Since last week I haven't had any days off as I have a lot of works to do. I hadn't been working till actually two weeks ago as I hardly have time to work then cuz of school things.
But it started to calming down after passing a very important test at school which was really a close call, and I've got used to it. So I started working at E-fresh again where I used to work for about a year cuz one of their staff has gone on holidays about two weeks, and the boss offered me to make up his absence. In earnest, my coaching job at two different places has just been off and running now. One is at BBC where is a local college in Brisbane, and the other is for mainly Japanese kids who are growing up here with English and Japanese at a local park where is actually the nearest park from where I live now.
As you could imagine, A coaching that you teach something new to kids is very difficult. I think it doen't really matter what you teach them. In my case, I need to teach a variety of kids who has different skill levels at the same time. As a matter of course, I can't focus on only good kids, but on the other hand I can't follow only the rest. I try to make all happy at every session, but it's not that easy for me to find the best solution every time!! So I'm really careful with my choice of words that speak to kids. I need to be more sophisticated linguistically.
最近めっさ忙しいです。ので、ブログ更新がなかなかできない・・・。
いきなり、自分のサッカー以外でやることが増えて、今週は丸一日何もない休みの日がなかった。子どものコーチも２か所始めて、さらに以前働いてたところに欠員が出て、そのヘルプに行ったりと朝から晩まで動き回ってます。
練習に影響がないといえばウソになるけど、他の選手も同じような境遇の選手も多いし言い訳にはできないですね。
けど、こっちの中学生を指導するのもなかなか楽しい。一番下手なクラスなんでボールを蹴るだけの子ばかりやけど、毎週ある試合はなんとか１勝１分。なるべく選手には希望に合ったポジションと平等な試合時間を与えて、今は楽しみながらの練習メニューでやってます。
自分が自らやっているサッカースクールも同じ。まだまだ始めたばかりの子が多いので、基礎練習もいれながら、合間に息抜きのメニューで楽しませたりと工夫するようにはしています。英語での指導もＮＺで始めたときは本当に苦労したけど、今ではかなり慣れてきました。もう少し、細かい部分、ニュアンスを伝えれる努力は必要。むしろそれは日本語でもかなり難しいことで、人に何かを伝える表現、言葉の選び方はその人のセンスだと思うんで、そこはもっと養って経験を積みたい。
さらに日々充実させれるようにしっかりやっていきます！
