EDUCATION

1. Do you think Japan should give more students options to study more languages (other than English) in Junior and Senior High School?

I don't think so.
Even now, Japanese students English skills are still not highly developed.
It's become betwixt and between.


2. Read this interesting article about changing the way English is taught in High School. Do you agree with the this plan? What about Mr. Hamada's opinion that the university entrance exam needs to be changed?

I agree with this plan.
Teaching in English is very useful for practice of listning, and students also can know how to use the new vocabulary and phrases in conversation.
I think we don't need to change the university entrance exam because grammer and reading skill are important.
English is not a second language to the Japanese because Japan is insular country.
So we can live without English.

I also think Japanese English ability is not good. If we study English more harder our ability will improved.

I agree your opinion.
I think Japanese children's Japanese language is very low.
