Fun Japanese Geography Series ④ ~Kinki Region~
For those who like handsome guys, have you ever thought, "I have to study. But I just can't get motivated 🥲"?
One reason you might not feel like studying is because you think "studying = painful"...? 💧
If that's the case... Just make studying = fun!
For those who thought, "There's no way I can do that... 😢"
『Nipponz!』 is a talk where you can have fun learning about Japan with prefectures that have become handsome guys at an academy 🗾
From Hokkaido to Okinawa, 47 unique characters are waiting for you ✨
But 『Nipponz!』 is not just about having them teach you knowledge.
Take on the quiz, and if you don't know something, try looking it up yourself. Whether it's the internet or a textbook, it's fine.
"Why is Osaka famous for flour-based dishes?" "Why are there so many temples and shrines in Kyoto?" "What else is in Shiga besides Lake Biwa?" "I looked it up and found these characteristics!"
Triggered by that "I want to know!", why not enjoy making new discoveries by researching yourself? ✨
It's okay if you don't start with the intention of studying.
First, why not just play a quiz with them for a bit?
Is anyone still doubting? 🤔 If so...
