The eikaiwa [conversation] business in Japan is a multi-billion dollar industry, and yet very little empirical research has been conducted on its teachers or its students. An online survey focusing on the pedagogical and personal issues of one group of eikaiwa teachers (foreign women who are married to Japanese men) was constructed and distributed. Results from the 31 respondents indicate an ongoing overlapping struggle with their teaching in balancing their families’ personal and financial needs, their relationships with their students, and the gendered constraints imposed upon them by Japanese society. The paper ends with a call for more research of all eikaiwa teachers in more eikaiwa contexts.日本における英会話産業は今や数十億ドル産業だが、それに携わる教師や生徒についての実証的な研究はこれまでほとんど行われていない。本論では、英会話学校の教師いずれも日本人男性と結婚している外国人女性を対象に、教育に関する問題および個人的な問題についてのオンライン調査を実施した。31名の教師より得た回答から、彼女らがそれぞれの家庭の問題や経済的な問題、生徒たちとの関係、そして日本社会が課している女性特有の制約といった複数の問題とバランスを取りながら、教育活動を行うことに常に苦労している現状が明らかになった。最後に、本論は、今後より多くの英会話学校の教師について、さらに多くの研究が行われる必要性を喚起する。
