Hi everyone, I’ve been thinking about this lately
I’m Japanese and I coach Japanese kids in English through games like Fortnite and Minecraft
there’s actually a growing demand for this in Japan, and it’s becoming more popular
the students use English while playing, and it works really well because it feels natural
in Fortnite, players have to talk to each other to work together, fight enemies, and try to win
it’s similar in Minecraft too — the environment naturally makes them communicate, and that communication is in English
the interesting part is that it doesn’t feel like studying at all
it’s just fun, and somehow they stay consistent without forcing themselves
recently I started wondering if this could work the other way around
like learning Japanese through games instead of traditional study
I’m actually trying a small test run of this idea right now
not anything formal yet, just experimenting
I’m curious —
would something like this be interesting to you?
or do you feel like it wouldn’t really work?
