NHK Documentary on Genki English (Video)
If you’ve ever taught English to Japanese elementary schoolers, you’ve probably used games or lesson plans from Genki English (I know I did). Will Jasprizza,who founded the company together with Richard Graham, has brought my attention to this 2002 N-H-K documentary about Genki’s English teaching lessons and seminars.
Part 1 [A seminar for Japanese English teachers, a look at the Genki English office/ song recording studio, and a visit to an elementary school.]
Part 2 [Teaching teachers, martial arts, an onsen trip, and a Japanese teacher uses her newly-learned Genki English techniques in class.]
I don’t think I’ll ever beat them in genkiness…
