My English Book and Me, Dave and Amy Games / English School

Amy, with her husband Dave, has been teaching English to kids in Japan since 1996. They opened Dave and Amy English School in 2004. It's grown to 4 locations with over 600 students. They made the My English Book and Me (Kindergarten 1 and 2, Elementary 1 - 4) and Dave and Amy Games to make their students strong readers, writers and speakers of English. The materials are well tested in their classrooms. We hope you enjoy them also. Dave and Amy have 2 sons (14 and 16) and love their life in Japan.
