("Gesipi"), a Metaverse education start-up company that utilizes e-sports, has started a demonstration experiment of " e-sports English conversation " as part of a regional club in cooperation with Kuki City, Saitama Prefecture. The purpose of this initiative is to provide more learning opportunities for local students.
e-Sports x English Conversation" Demonstration Experiment for New Learning Begins in Kuki City

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, the Sports Agency, and the Agency for Cultural Affairs are currently promoting the " transition of school club activities to regional cooperation and regional club activities (regional transition) " throughout Japan. Kuki City, Saitama Prefecture, is also actively working to reform sustainable club activities in the community and is promoting the development of an environment for sports and cultural arts activities. Against this backdrop, Gesipi, in cooperation with Kuki City, has started a demonstration experiment of "eSports English Conversation," a new learning opportunity combining eSports and English conversation in the community.
In this demonstration experiment, Chromebooks, which have been introduced in public junior high schools in Kuki City, are combined with online games to create an environment in which any student attending a public junior high school in the city can participate. Designed to allow students to learn English naturally while having fun through the game world, the program aims to provide more learning opportunities for local students.
eSports English Conversation is now accepting participants!
eSports English Conversation" will be held once a week in 60-minute classes, with a maximum of 20 participants per class. The class will be held once a week for 60 minutes, and each class can accommodate up to 20 students.
The online format of the program not only eliminates the need for transportation, but also allows students from different areas who normally have no contact with each other to deepen their interaction through games. At the first session, students quickly became familiar with each other and could be seen communicating in English while cooperating in the game.
If you are interested in participating, please apply using the "e-Sports English Conversation" application form. For more information, see the Kuki City Regional Club Application Flyer (PDF file).
