Gaba teacher successfully reaches 1,000 lesson milestone

Witnesses describe scene as 'pandemonium' as teacher mobbed by co-workers

TOKYO, Japan (GTA) -- Instructor Christine Wilson celebrated her 1,000th lesson with Gaba at the Omote-Sando Learning Studio facilities last Monday. The milestone comes as quite an amazing turn-around for the former Nova teacher, whose English teaching career appeared to be over late last year.

"I can't believe it's my 1,000th lesson already. I mean, I just started working at Gaba three and a half months ago," Christine told reporters. "I want to thank my fellow instructors who really helped me along. The reception desk girls, my IQM manager. And especially the clients who believed in me from the start."

The 1,000 lesson mark was reached at approximately 1:45 when the bell officially sounded to end the lesson. Afterwards, Wilson's booth (#12) was mobbed by delirious co-workers, making it difficult for Gaba Chief Executive Officer Chutatsu Aono to elbow his way through the Gaba aisles to congratulate Wilson personally.

"I think I know one Quality-Focused Professional who is due for a second four-month Entrusted Contract," Aono deadpanned while presenting Wilson with a Polaroid photo and celebratory calorie-mate commemorating the moment.
