Counting Tips and Tricks in the ELL/ELT/ESL/EFL/ESP classroom.

Countable nouns: Most of the nouns are countable. You can combine them with numbers, e.g one, two or three. Here is an example: one pencil two pencils three pencils etc. Uncountable nouns: These nouns can't be combined with numbers. Here is an example: water If you want to express a quantity, you have to use a special phrase e.g. a glass of water. NOTE: Some nouns can be either countable or uncountable. We recommend to use a good dictionary. Here is an example, too. hair - hairs You've got some hairs on your T-shirt. (There might be 5 or 6 of them.) Your hair looks lovely. (Here you think of the hairstyle.) ----------------------------------------------------- If you are an American or Canadian passport holder, born-again, believe in the trinity, believe in Jesus Christ the redeemer, read the bible daily and obey it,  and have prayed about doing missions abroad then please visit HarvestJapan.com and/or make a comment or request at www.ESLministry.com Thank you for the Harvesters are few but worthy!

Here is another Harvesters home-church baptism with Natsuko San but Ryosaku San of the same fellowship got baptized in the following month at CoAN Church because that is where he originally went forward for confession and/or repentance.   Natsuko-s baptism here warmed everyone's hearts in this small Home-Church group.  Longer clips can be viewed, downloaded or subscribed to at www.HouseChurch.asia and if you need to baptize others the same bilingual script can be downloaded at http://media.libsyn.com/media/cteij/BaptismScript-Eng-Japanese.rtf

HOW TO ADAPT EFFECTIVELY AND GRACEFULLY IN JAPAN or EAST ASIA [1] Be a learner, observe carefully, and take advice. Proverbs 13:13 [2] React to things with a joyful heart - Proverbs 15:15 [3] Cheerfully enjoy the differences and thankfully relish all the experiences ( ^.^) Put your best into all that you do! Proverbs 15:30 [4] Get excited over the small victories and other "small" things you discover. Be positive of the outcome for God is sovereign! Proverbs 16:4,9 [5] God can use me in every situation, even in the difficult situations. 1 Peter 4:8 [6] Be "Yasashi" and "Akarui" and love the people. Psalms 43:3

Here are some reasons why people in East Asia like to study English so much. If you have a call on your heart to serve in East Asia as a Missionary English Teacher, please visit http://ESLministry.com

Evangelism tips and how to bridge the gap when sharing your faith in East Asia. For more information on the Creation model, please visit http://www.answersingenesis.org OR you can some books and DVDs at the bottom of this site at http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v22/i1/creation.asp

This episode is called the "it" factor. Some teachers got "it" and some don't. For this reason the churches that implement rotating Missionary English Teachers each year in their CTESOL schools usually have 2 teachers when working with children in order to maintain the "it" factor when, for example, a good Missionary English Teacher leaves and is replaced by someone green who may or may not have the "it" factor. We talk about the "it" factor here and CTESOL Churches understand how to maintain an integral classroom presence among young learning children in Asia when good METs leave. It may not be helpful but it is a good listen and very short.

Ai San 愛� at a small growing Home Church in North Osaka.

Pierre, Katsu and Namie got baptized on this day of September 9th. PTL ! ! ! ! !

One year anniversary.... A wonderful tear filled baptism with humility and fruit of repentance.

Happy New Years from Osaka, Japan!

New Year's Eve (Omisoka): December 31 is not a national holiday.

This Japanese song å‚·ç—• by the Christian group Genuine Grace was freely released on a Christmas CD probably as a Christian evangelical tool for the Christmas season.  Now is the best time to share the gospel of Christ and His redeeming power as everyone here in Japan can see the name of Christ, the name above all other names, in Christmas when you point out to them in the spelling.  

Also, thank you everyone for you prayers as Ai's birthday in the November episode of Japanese-English was not only a physical birthday but also her spiritual B-day too ( ^.^)^.^)^.^)... in Sanda, Hyogo-ken at a Home Fellowship there.  Thanks to Teacher Mitsuo and also Yoko for their input and training in establishing another Home Church in our area after Ai's baptism and for donating this song too.

Enjoy å‚·ç—• by Genuine Grace and if you would like to see more songs by this artist, please visit your "Local Japanese Christian Book Store"  or maybe they have it on iTunes.

Christmas is not a national holiday, but it is celebrated by an increasing number of Japanese.

Emperor's Birthday (Tenno no tanjobi): The birthday of the current emperor is always a national holiday. If the emperor changes, the national holiday changes to the birthday date of the new emperor.

The time limit to exchange your Level 1 and Level 2 books to the "Third Edition" has ended but now it's time again to tear out the first page(s) in your Level 3 Teachers Manual(s) and mail them to OUP for a free exchange and upgrade to the new edition that just came out. Check them out! Third Edition Level 3 books, manuals, and more are now available. Levels 4 and 5 will be out in 2008. Many of us use English Land, Up and Away, Kids Talk by William Stark in Kobe, Matsuka Phonics Institute, and many other sources but the best seller nationwide for teaching kids in Japan is the Let's Go series by Oxford University Press with free animated computer English lesson games in the -3rd Edition- Student Books. With the new Skills Books, homework is a breeze and the Let's Begin is great new edition for preschoolers. Great improvements by OUP!!! ( ^.^)(^.^ )

Sorry but this may not be as helpful as it was intended to be but it might be slightly interesting if you like sandals or clogs... Japanese clogs or other.
Seta have no rubber on the bottom. Zori do have rubber on the bottom and both are flat and both may have tatami like mats where you place your feet.  Set are probably less common.  Geta used to be flat elevated clogs that were great for mud trekking (just joking but that is what they look like with the twin towers on the bottom. A rarer kind of geta had only one tower elevated vertically or diagonally beneath the sole making the task of walking a balancing act. Nowadays, geta can be purchased with the two elevated towers on the bottom but are commonly preferred without these towers and look more like a wooden clog low heel sandal with a material thong on the top.  This is in ACC format as a PhotoCast so take the time to decipher which photo is what as we did not have time to put the photos in order. Also, as Kinsaku San commented on towards the end... if anyone knows what the Shiritori Game is called in English other than "Ending Mora Word Game" please comment on this post at our web page. Thank you. Episodes about Christian TESOL and regulations are due soon in 2008.
