Ema Nagayasu (Ema-chan)

Role

Primary School Teacher, NPO Office staff

Background

During university days she was part of a circle that played with local children which interested her in education. While job-hunting she worked at TCS as an intern. It is now 10 years since and she has worked as an office staff, full-teacher before assuming her current role.

Philosophy

“Fantasia is birthed out of imagination, innovation, as well as the relationship between what one thinks and what one knows.”

With memory, experience, and a little bit of thinking, anyone can become creative.

Like/Good at

Yoga, art galleries (especially late 19th century art), rakugo, (especially the yose during summer holidays), reading Kiyoshi Shigematsu’s work in a native accent.
