Question # 44 – Can I watch American/foreign TV programs when teaching ESL in Japan?

 

Good programs from other countries have a way of finding a way on Japanese television….if you watch TV.

Who has time for that?

Most English teachers teach in the evening…when the students are available. There are not many good TV programs on during the day…ever…if you ask me.

The best programs in Japan are the documentaries, but the ESL teacher will need a really good facilitation in Japanese to be able to watch them.

Most, many?, teachers find themselves watching the morning kids programs…they’re easily understood and you are able to learn right along with the kids.

What’s your favorite TV program in Japan?
