1
This is a typical work day at a Japanese nursery school.
2
[Music] Today I'm going inside of a 'hoikuen' - Japanese nursery school - similar in Western countries to a daycare, called St. Marian, which is privately run and located in Tokyo's Ebisu area.
3
With an attached learning center, the nursery is known for their exam preparation course for students, to feed into prestigious elementary schools.
4
And my curiosity got the better of me, as I had to find out what really happens in a day here and what they're actually learning at such a young age.
5
Good morning.
6
Good morning!
7
This is Aika.
8
A teacher at this nursery school responsible for their kindergarten class called, here, kinder for short.
9
Which is between 4 and 5 years old.
10
So, how long have you been working here?
11
It's only been about a year.
12
I was working at different nurseries just before this.
13
She actually has 8 years of experience working as a nursery school teacher.
14
Originally from Aichi Prefecture, she moved to this school about 1 year ago.
15
The first thing she does is review notes from parents.
16
At Japanese nurseries, it's common to use a reporting system where parents record detailed information.
17
From what their kids ate for dinner and breakfast to how they slept, their health, and even their bathroom habits, helping teachers understand each child's condition on that day, ensuring that they can provide the best care and attention possible.
18
So, when are the kids coming?
19
Drop off is from 8am... in 7 minutes.
20
Nice. She's precise!
21
Cool! Another worker's here.
22
Hi. Are you a teacher, too?
23
Yes I am. Oh, do you teach the same class?
24
I support the teachers here.
25
Awesome. [Doorbell rings] [Music] They're here.
26
Oh, the kids are here!
27
Good morning.
28
Aika handles the handoff and greetings while the other staff helped to put things away.
29
Oh, he's wearing 'uwabaki.' Typical Japanese in-room school shoes.
30
In Japan, all the way up to high school, kids usually change shoes at the entrance to keep the interior of the school as clean as possible.
31
These indoor shoes are also non-slip, making it safe for kids to play in.
32
What's that?
33
It's a bug!
34
What kind of bug?
35
A Kuwagata Beetle.
36
Oh, that's cool.
37
I can't touch it though.
38
I hope you can touch it someday!
39
Good morning!
40
Good morning.
41
It's very nice to meet you.
42
Wow, so proper!
43
How old are they?
44
5, 3 and...
45
Elementary kids... who have a lot of energy.
46
Oh, you have elementary kids in the class, too?
47
They're in summer break right now.
48
We accept older kids until the end of August.
49
At this nursery, they also accept temporary daycare for foreign travelers.
50
Quite useful for families with extended stays in Japan!
51
Hello, Mr. Cameraman.
52
Hello! While waiting for the other kids to arrive, the teachers play with the ones that are here.
53
Have fun at work!
54
[Music] Hey, what's he doing?
55
We have nap time later so he's setting up his own bed as part of his morning routine.
56
In Japan, nursery kids learn how to manage their belongings and get ready on their own in the morning.
57
Like unpacking their bags when they arrive, getting dressed, and putting away their supplies, which is believed to grow their independence and responsibility.
58
Who wants to draw eyes?
59
Me! Oh, the kids are doing 'origami'!
60
'Ori' means to fold and 'gami' means paper.
61
It's a traditional Japanese pastime that continues to this day.
62
Still loved by children as part of their everyday play.
63
It's also known to improve hand-eye coordination and concentration, making it both a fun and educational activity.
64
Looks like they're going to be just playing around here for a little bit.
65
So, while they're doing that, let's go explore a little bit!
66
[Music] Let's go up these stairs.
67
They're quite steep.
68
It looks like we have the 0 to 1 year olds here!
69
Let's go see what's in this door.
70
I guess this is their kitchen.
71
Hi. It's hot in here!
72
It is. Yeah. What are you doing now?
73
I just finished making Bulgogi.
74
Looks good!
75
We also make baby food - early stage and late stage.
76
Apparently, she's responsible for making different dishes depending on the age of the kids.
77
Do you plan the menu yourself?
78
The menu is planned by Oisix so we cook it accordingly.
79
Japanese kindergartens and nurseries generally have their own nutritionist to make food for them.
80
It's common for Japanese students to eat balanced meals at school.
81
Not just for health, but also as a part of their food education, teaching them what they should be normally eating, preparing them for their adult life.
82
Everyone in Kinder class, please sit down.
83
If you don't have a vest on, please put it on.
84
Now that all the kids are here, each kid goes to their own class.
85
We are going to start the morning meeting now.
86
Next, it's time for their 'asa no kai,' meaning "morning meeting." Good morning, teacher!
87
It's a short session to greet each other.
88
The assigned helpers of the day announce today's lunch menu and schedule.
89
The style varies from school to school, but it's a meaningful way in Japan for kids to practice speaking in front of others while also taking on responsibilities.
90
Let's have a great day.
91
Please sit down.
92
The older kinder class students will stay here and play.
93
Where are you going now?
94
We're going to the Sakura classroom downstairs to study a little bit.
95
- Oh, why are some of the kids dressed up? - Good question.
96
Kids going to the class wear formal attire instead of everyday clothing in order to shift to a study mood.
97
Are you ready?
98
Yes, I am. Your mouth is?
99
Zipped! [Music] Red down!
100
Red up! So, this nursery has an exam prep class where kids study different subjects to prepare for entrance exams for prestigious elementary schools in the country.
101
In Japan, the entrance exam system for latter schools is called 'ojuken,' and it's extremely competitive.
102
With the top schools having an acceptance rate as low as 12%.
103
These exams include everything from academic to physical exercises, behavior training, art activities, and even interview practice.
104
So, parents who want their kids on the school track are forced to place their kids into cram schools.
105
This particular nursery school, though, helps alleviate some of that burden as it prepares its students for the exams as part of their standard everyday curriculum.
106
Nice! The kitchen is doing the final plating!
107
Lunch is almost ready!
108
Kinder class!
109
Yes! Are you Mr. Posture right now?
110
It's August, and today we're going to do an earthquake evacuation drill.
111
Now the kids are doing their monthly emergency evacuation drill called 'hinan kunren.' And today's focus is on earthquakes.
112
It's critical that students are well prepared for such disasters in Japan.
113
As it's an earthquake-prone country.
114
Recording more than 3600 quakes of magnitude 1 or higher in 2024 alone!
115
These drills have become a standard part of Japan's educational system, regularly practiced all the way through to high school.
116
Next, what's HA?
117
Hashiranai! (Don't run.) Now, the students memorize the basic rules of every evacuation using the acronym 'o ha shi,' meaning "don't push, don't run, don't talk." With an emphasis on keeping safe, especially when they're in groups, so they don't panic.
118
Oh, that's a 'bousai zukin,' a traditional protective hood used in Japan.
119
Its origins date back to World War II when it was designed to protect people from falling debris and fires during air raids.
120
Even today, it remains one of the most common safety items used during school evacuations.
121
Children regularly practice putting them on quickly and correctly to ensure they're always prepared.
122
You helped me, right?
123
Who wants to do red?
124
Me! Next, the students go outside to play with water, called 'mizu asobi.' It seems like they're learning color mixing through painting experiments.
125
Hey, who came up with these activities?
126
I came up with this one.
127
When we were coloring, the kids weren't sure what colors made what.
128
So I thought it would be fun to discover this together.
129
As a Japanese nursery school teacher, Aika must also use her creativity to plan fun and interesting activities for the students.
130
Hey, before we continue on, I want to give a quick shout out to the sponsor of this video, Squarespace.
131

145
Thank you for helping. Please hold it with both hands.
146
It's almost lunch time now and kids, who are assigned as helpers, plate food for everyone, including drinks and utensils.
147
This is common for elementary schools in Japan, but maybe not as common for nurseries.
148
I guess here the kids are learning valuable lessons on responsibility early.
149
So lunchtime in Japanese nursery isn't just a time to eat for Japanese kids.
150
It's also a time to learn manners, try seasonal foods, and understand what a balanced meal looks like.
151
An important point is that the teachers adapt their guidance to each child's stage of development.
152
What are you teaching at lunch in this class?
153
One is posture, another is to make sure their left hand is holding their plate.
154
For the Kinder class, we're teaching them to not talk with their mouth full and to close the mouth when they eat.
155
Oh man, I'd probably fail this class!
156
Hey, what if kids don't like eating something?
157
We teach kids to try things at least once but we don't force them to eat anything.
158
We help the kids eat little by little.
159
Cool, I like that approach!
160
[Music] [Sung] It's starting, it's starting!
161
"I want to give the baby a present..." After lunch, the students are readied for a nap.
162
Aika reads the kids a book to help them calm down while the other teacher helps prepare the beds.
163
- The end. - Baby! Baby!
164
Good night.
165
So nap time is about 2 hours long, and Aika helps to lay the kids to sleep.
166
After most of them have nodded off, she passes the class over to 1 of the other teachers so she can take her lunch break.
167
[Music] So, what do you do when you're not teaching?
168
On my day off, I go out with my friends, or I just rest.
169
Nice. What kind of things do you do when you're out?
170
I go shopping, eat with friends, and go to the sauna.
171
I also like reading.
172
What'd you get?
173
I got Yuzu Shio ramen salad, coffee and...
174
I'm into matcha so I got this matcha Galbo.
175
This one is so good.
176
It looks good!
177
Depending on the day for lunch, she either makes food from home or goes out.
178
But today, she's having a conbini lunch with her co-workers.
179
[Music] So, who's worked here the longest?
180
Among the 4 of us, it's her.
181
Oh nice! How long?
182
20 years. Wow!
183
She's actually a graduate from here.
184
Apparently, her little sister was actually in the teacher's 0 year old class many years ago.
185
So, what do you like most about this place?
186
I love the people here.
187
I also enjoy my work.
188
And what about you?
189
Like she was saying, I also like how everyone gets along here.
190
I appreciate that I can easily discuss any concerns I may have with the team.
191
Also, I think its great that the kids here can experience many things.
192
[Music] After lunch, she spends the rest of her time doing office work.
193
Since she's with the kids all day, this is 1 of the times she can attend to her administrative responsibilities.
194
So, what are you working on?
195
I'm putting together the daily activity report for the parents.
196
At this nursery, teachers take photos throughout the day to share with parents via their online reporting system.
197
Each report includes pictures and short comments describing the activities so parents can see what their children were doing that day.
198
Definitely something I'd appreciate as a parent myself!
199
Good morning.
200
Time to wake up.
201
Did you sleep well?
202
[Paolo laughs] The kids seem sleepy!
203
The ones with sticks are for the Kinder class.
204
Right after nap time, the kids are provided a snack.
205
Again, assigned kids help serve the food and drinks prepared by the nutritionist.
206
You can't eat yet?
207
We have to sing a song first.
208
So, you wait?
209
We didn't say "Itadakimasu" yet...
210
They're such good kids!
211
Oh, they're singing again.
212
I guess this is pretty common in Japanese nurseries.
213
[Music] Thank you for the food.
214
In Japan, it's customary to formally say thank you as a group before meals.
215
I guess they're having 'gouhei mochi' and milk today!
216
There you go.
217
Thank you. Next is 'shuji,' a Japanese calligraphy class.
218
A common curriculum students start to learn in elementary school, but it's not very common at nurseries.
219
The purpose of the class is not to simply write beautiful characters, but to also help develop the students' focus through precise hand movements.
220
In fact, every week at this nursery, kids get to experience different kinds of lessons and activities.
221
Like karate, gymnastics, dance, and even instruments!
222
Again, not typical in public nurseries.
223
Thank you so much.
224
How are you?
225
Oh, the school's English class just started!
226
It's an optional class, so some kids don't attend.
227
In Japan, the official English curriculum starts from third grade.
228
But since many parents wish for their children to master the language, it's become 1 of the most popular after-school programs in the country that is privately taught.
229
After 4pm, parents are returning to pick up their kids.
230
And during the handoff, teachers share highlights from the day's activities and mention any unexpected incidents.
231
All right, so we're going to end it here.
232
It looks like the parents are coming now.

이 비디오로 영어 말하기 연습을 하는 이유
일본 어린이집에서의 하루를 담은 이 비디오를 통해, 영어 회화 연습에 적용할 수 있는 다양한 실제 상황을 익힐 수 있습니다. 어린이집 선생님과 아이들 간의 대화는 자연스러운 스피킹 맥락을 제공하며, 이러한 상황에서의 대화는 아이들과의 소통 능력을 개발하는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다. shadow speech 기법을 활용하여 이 비디오의 스피치를 따라 해보면, 실제 회화 능력을 향상시키는 데 효과적입니다.
문법 및 표현 분석
이 비디오에서는 몇 가지 유용한 문법 구조와 표현이 사용되었습니다:
- How long have you been working here? - 현재완료 시제를 사용하여 경험을 질문하는 방식입니다.
- It’s common to use a reporting system - 일반적인 관행을 설명하는 간단하고 효과적인 표현입니다.
- They’re here! - 현재형으로 즉각적인 상황을 전달하며, 간결한 문장 구조가 특징입니다.
- What kind of bug? - 질문을 통해 호기심을 자극하는 대화의 예입니다.
이러한 표현들을 IELTS 스피킹에서 자연스럽게 사용할 수 있도록 반복 연습하면, 실제 시험에서도 자신감 있게 대답할 수 있습니다.
일반적인 발음 함정
비디오에서는 몇 가지 발음이 어렵거나 특이한 단어가 등장합니다. 예를 들어, uwabaki (우와바키)라는 단어는 난이도가 높아 연습이 필요합니다. 또한, Kuwagata Beetle (구와가타 비틀)와 같은 특정 곤충 이름 역시 주의 깊게 발음해야 합니다. 일본어를 사용하는 환경에서 영어 발음을 연습할 때, 이런 단어들을 포함한 대화를 통해 발음 트랩을 피하는 것이 도움이 됩니다.
비디오를 반복적으로 시청하면서 shadowspeaks 기법을 활용하여 이러한 표현과 발음을 연습하면, 스피킹 능력을 더욱 강화할 수 있습니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
