My Day with the Executive Supervisor of English Departements for the Toyama Prefactural Metropolitian Government General Educational Center

Executive Supervisor of English Departments in Toyama Prefecture Metropolitian Government General Educational Center: “Very nice, I see your teachers are running frantically, you must be force feeding the them?”

Principal Sakai: “Oh thank you very much, actually, we add genki drink to the milk, they never notice…and you should see the sheer amount of spreadsheets they’re able to churn out”

“Haaha, it’s a wonder we lost the war with our greatness isn’t it. Oooo is she the office lady?” He points to a frizzy haired linebacker in a pencil skirt.

“Ahh yes, we just had her checked in Osaka, her IQ is 6. Quite phenomenal actually, she was positively built to copy.”

“Does she comply with protocol and speak rapid fire Toyama dialect to the ALT?”

“Sometimes I don’t even know what she’s saying. Would you like to see the English demonstration class?”

“No, I’m not concerned with actual teaching; I would like to see some of the students’ most recent English tests though if possible.”

“Of course, here you are. As you can see, the san-nenseis are far below Pre-war levels, ni-nenseis are able to talk about Japanese food using Japanese words, and the ichi-nenseis can’t distinguish English from spilled ink.”

“I don’t know how you do it Mr. Sakai, but you captain a good ship. Shall we have a school wide meeting for several hours, and enjoy speeches?”

“Only as long as the chairs are setup but nobody is sitting in them.”
