As you know, confidence is something I’m very big on. Here’s the English version of my “Kodomo Eigo” article this month.

“Good” is a good word. When you hear it you feel good. You think to yourself “that was good”. It’s not bad. It’s good. But it could be better…

For example the movie might be called “Spiderman”, but the comic book is called “The Amazing Spiderman”. Superman isn’t just a hero, he’s a super hero. The Incredibles aren’t just good, they are incredible. And last year the Silver Surfer didn’t just fight any four astronauts, he fought “The Fantastic Four”. And because your students have you as their teacher, I’m sure they’re not just good. I bet they are excellent. Or brilliant. So let them know. Instead of just writing “good!” on their homework, let them know that they, just like you, are really…

Normal English: Good! -> Genki English: Amazing! Super! Incredible and Fantastic!
