Posted in: Ideally, should English teachers at schools in Japan be native speakers? Can non-native English speakers do just as well or better? See in context
There is a great value to being able to work with a native speaker in any language. This enables the student access to the language i(in all dimensions) rather than the subject of the language.

The attitude and individual efforts of the student is the most important factor in any learning situation.
