"After graduating with a degree in psychology and sociology, I moved to Japan to work as an English teacher and study Japanese. At BHS I’ve been teaching Japanese and social studies for 16 years. In the past I have been a Fulbright participant and served as a Japanese language instructor and cultural liaison for the U.S. Department of State. Additionally, I have assisted with interpretation for the Japanese Municipal Officers Mid-career Training Program at PSU. I have also been the secretary for the ATJO and regularly presented on kanji instruction for non-native speakers." - Ben Novinger
