Talking to a University Professor in Japan | KoreKara Podcast #18

In this episode of the KoreKara Podcast, we spoke to Jeff, a university professor in Japan who didn't have the most straight forward journey to becoming a professor, let alone in Japan. On top of that, he's been doing academic research on how video games can benefit students and the classroom environment. This time, we explore Jeff's unorthodox journey into how he got into actually becoming a professor in Japan, as well as his unique teaching methods utilizing video games. Nowadays, Jeff has recently created a new Arena Card Game called Alternate Souls which raised over $60,000 on Kickstarter, all while working as a University Professor!
