Education

Today'S class was fun. I was sooo happy to hear his lecture.

Any way, I would like to write my opinion from reading what the new Minister of Education in the newspapers. It was made or published in the December 6th International Herald Tribune.

Do you agree with the writer? Why? Give at least 3 examples to support your answer.

I do agree about the country has a surprisingly low level of fluency in English. even we start learning english in 7th grade. And I didn'T realize about Japan managed to become one of the world's largest economies without its people mastering much English.
I think it is good things to learn English. But I don't think we have to start leaning english from a pre-school. I don't think leaning english in the early age helps us.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!! I hope that all of you would have a wonderful year!!!

This week's homework was to read an article from the Japan Times and give my opinion. http://search.japantimes.co.jp/member/member.html?ek20060110ks.htm

I do agree with the author. I think this is one of the reason why japanese has a problem not have enough child in this country.And it is true men think about themselves a lot. It is good to take care their body but it is something they didn't before. And Even when i think about my boyfriend, I sometimes can't understand about my boyfriend.

Today we discussed table manners from all over the world. It was really funto know the manners. I realized that there are so many things I don't know and I was happy to find out about it.

Yes, I have eaten in a foreign restaurant. In America. I have eaten a lot of stuff like Humburgers, some dinners etc... I don't think I made any mistakes.but there were so many meals on a plate, so I wasn't finish eating for alot of times. I leaned about how much amout of tip I should leave on a table. And how to order a food at the restaurant.
