Teaching English in Japan

Contains the full transcripts from nine seasons of the Friends television comedy. The transcript episodes link to DVDs and videos containing that episode. (TV shows are shorter than movies, so can be a good alternative to using films in class.)

Many featured movies here. Each individual guide is a detailed synopsis of a popular film, with a summary of the plot, a list of the major characters, an extensive glossary of vocabulary and various cultural references that even advanced ESL learners would often not understand, questions for ESL class discussion.

The Totoro transcript is an accurate transcription of the dialog contained in the video. It was created to serve as a resource for teachers using this video in English language classes. It is also useful for students of English as a self-study resource, especially if the students are Japanese and also have access to the original Japanese language version.
