Who We Are
SKE Learning stands for Spyglass Kids English Learning. We are the online extension of Spyglass Kids English, a successful English language school based in Japan. Every lesson, worksheet, and curriculum on this site is the result of years of hands-on classroom experience with students ranging from preschoolers to junior high schoolers.
Unlike other resource sites, we're not a faceless publishing company or a content mill.
We’re working teachers who know the daily grind of lesson prep, classroom management, and trying to keep kids engaged while still hitting your learning goals. Everything here was made with that in mind.

Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Walt Tsushima.
I’ve spent over two decades in education—as a public school teacher, university lecturer, and now owner of a thriving English school in rural Japan.
When I first started, I struggled to find lesson materials that were:
-
Actually usable in class
-
Fun and age-appropriate for ESL kids
-
Aligned with a logical, structured curriculum
So I built my own!
That curriculum became the foundation of Spyglass Kids English, and now, it’s available to teachers around the world through SKE Learning.

Why We Created SKE Learning
We know how hard it can be to:
-
Spend hours planning lessons that may or may not work
-
Keep young learners motivated week after week
-
Build a real business from your teaching skills
That’s why we created SKE Learning:
To give you the tools and confidence to teach better—and grow your classroom or school faster.
