Masahiko Yahata

I have been teaching English full time and part time for 42 years at Beppu University and Beppu University Junior College. I have also been reading Irish literature for 30 plus years and have published several Irish and English short stories in Japanese translation. The countries I have ever been to are U.S.A. (including Hawaii and Guam), Ireland, Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand, China and Korea. I visited these countries mostly on business. At present, I am studying Chinese, Korean and French as well. I would like to challenge new fields of business by utilizing my foreign language proficiency.
