There are many different types of guides.
As you can see from reading the correspondent Blog, everyone has their own unique Kodawari and specialty areas, and their variety is a great study.
The other day, I participated in a “on-the-job training” that attracted particularly excellent correspondents. Each correspondent conducts a guide on a rotating basis, and the remaining correspondents also simulatedly become customers and observe the guide. Moreover, all of them are observed and evaluated by experts, but this has been a great deal.
Everyone is working hard and wonderfully as it is, but there are tsukkomi and bad points in the details, and when you look at it objectively (although tomorrow is myself), the real pleasure of on-the-job training is exactly here in the scale from the eyes There is.
A type that introduces the poop of history and culture is often found in Oyado correspondent guides. If you start with this, it will be a boring guide, but the joy of passing the difficult tourist association certification (hardship?) I can understand it because it is also a manifestation of a feeling of excitement (>_<), but I want to prepare a novel story that attracts the interest of customers without just giving a lecture!
The amazing girls are glunabi, and the relationship between poo is fastened, and I will tell you all the properties of the store that you can see while walking on which Nani is delicious and cheap. I was reminded that the importance of gourmet relations is increasing in tourism content. The traditional long-established taste is a bit different from the fashionable dishes of Aoyama and Omotesando.
As tourism has become remarkably globalized, the types and needs of customers have also diversified. The Chuo-ku Tourism Association seems to be responding flexibly to these needs and assigning them according to the needs of customers according to the individuality of each correspondent.
After all, an ataxi speaks fluent English (laughs).
Foreign tourists (English-speaking) "Omote-te-na-shi" is a place to show their skills.
Recently, even on regular tours, foreign visitors are often participating very well.
The other day, a tourist association suddenly asked for a tour guide for a group of 48 VIPs and their families from all over the world.
The other party said that an interpreter was arranged for the time being, so I took it lightly, but three days before the tour, "The interpreter did a patcan (sudden cancellation just before), so the interpreter was also a correspondent guide Thank you very much. "
So~ Yu's ant?
Moreover, this communication, the day before the previous on-the-job training, and the actual performance is the day after the on-the-job training!
Isn't this terrible?
This is a great deal of pressure.
What do you say the antakushi did? (>_<)
48 foreign tourists are divided into three groups, and about 15 customers are Ozu Washi. → Edoya → I will guide you to Ibasen, but from the beginning to the end of Edoya, you have to guide you all in English, including administrative information.
That's too much!
If you are a correspondent, you will be able to have such a terrible experience, so you will be yamitsuki.
After all, an ataxi is flutter in English (crying), so I could do it without difficulty (sweat)
At Edoya, I have to explain brushes, but it's hard to explain this to the Japanese in Japanese.
So, the atakushi first taught everyone the Japanese word "Hageto" instead of "Hake".
I created a slide board that laid out the homer of Simpson's, a world-wide anime character, and Namihira of Sazae-san, also known as Japanese Simpson's, and showed it by enlarged copying it.
This is an omotenashi that lets you visually convey the image of a brush made from animal "fur" and at the same time learn the Japanese word "hage and brush".
After all, the antakushi doesn't need it because English conversation is perfect, but I took it stupid.
Gaiding that makes full use of such graphics was highly evaluated by experts in on-the-job training.
How can you communicate professional and hard guide comments in a fun and soft manner?
It's also fun to think about such ideas.
