Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Yes, aging society with fewer young generation has become a serious social issue. Thanks to development of medical services with public health insurance system have made Japan have longevity drastically. As a result, more taxpayer's money is spent for elderly medicine and nursing care. On the other hand, the budget for the young has been oppressed by the financial pressure of the elderly. As current condition is already in a crisis, no ultimate solution is found yet. Many young adults feel anxious for their future, resulting delaying the beginning of their families. I hope that the Japanese government should accept more economic migrants while encouraging residents to comply with internationalization. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Societies have been developed by digitilization so that we can enjoy convenient daily life. Although a simple and easy life may be comfortable, every steps of rituals has meanings and respect to the gods. I think it is lazy to expect simplicity in praying. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. A congestion tax would discourage the use of private owner cars and encourage the use of public transportation. At the same time, tax revenue would help infrastructure repairs and renovations. Thus, I believe it would also lead to improved atmosphere by reducing exhaust gases. To encourage the use of electric vehicles (EVs), environmentally friendly cars should be exempt from tax. resulting an eco-friendly condition in big cities. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Since my elder son goes to university, he had to have laboratory work as a part of practical training while reading scientific papers including English ones. So he needs my support to raise English literacy, then he has challenged conversation skill to adapt the changing circumstances. As a pharmacist who work at a big hospital, foreign patients visit his hospital and demand explanation in English if necessary. My relatives who are young are also interested in English conversation skill. When we have family gathering I explain how to raise English capability and what are necessary to become fluent speaker in English. I am glad that they are eager to learn English. As for "here comes a gaijin - let's run!", I am sorry you and your friends feel annoyed and maybe surprised at such odd responce. I think that those who can not speak English are afraid of communication in English. Many Japanese don't have opportunities to listening English in daily life, so they frequently don't understand what foreigners mention. As a result, when they see gaijin, they escape from foreigners not to be asked in English. Even easy communication like "Hello", "How are you?", and " Do you enjoy travel in Japan", many Japanese may hesitate to use English because of a lack of experience using English. I would like to expand the idea of importance of English communication to my surrounding friends and younger relatives. Best regards, 5971mak
Thank you, as always.
Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. In general, hospitality industries needs soft and tailored services to satisfy customers' requests. They are not always mentioning what services they want to have, so such circumstances are inappropriate to be managed by computers and robots. Only human can provide adequate suggestions for guests' demands while hearling indistinct words and images. Even if there is a lunguage barrier, human communications are frequently heartwarming and sympathetic. Thus, I believe that Japan also needs economic migrants for nursing and caregiving businesses. I would like to spread the necessity of English conversation skill to my relatives and acquaintances to develop our society for making Japan have diversity. Best regards, 5971mak

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. In Japan, the number of injuries in the manufacturing industry has decreased because many factories have relocated overseas. On the other hand, the number of workers who work in service industry has increased, then, the increase in mental stress has become a serious concern. Deteriorating their mental health condition has a significant negative impact to companies nowadays. Specifically, struggling workers tend to become more likely to be late, absent from work, declining work efficiency, and mistakes at work, leading to loss of confidence to work. Eventually, those who lost confidence may quit their jobs and recluse at home. Mental health management has become one of the important topics regarding working hygiene. Best regards, 5971mak

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. I agree with the importance of heat island phenominon which is common in Tokyo and Osaka in summer. The two metropolitan government have taken actions to pacify the influences of the heat waves by increasing greenery on the courtyard and along streets. As for the atmosphere of the New Year's holiday, television programs start with the Song Battle program (a singing contest between men and women) on New Year's Eve. After the show, many people watch the bells tolling on New Year's Eve on TV and then go to bed. On New Year's Day, scenes from all over Japan are broadcast in relay format, and there is a New Year's relay marathon race between companies. On the 2nd and 3rd, there was a New Year's relay marathon race between universities. Japanese people do not prefer thinking about painful things such as the weak yen, rising prices, global warming, the destruction of Gaza, the invasion of Ukraine, America's "Make America Great Again," and the expansion of Chinese hegemony until the New Year holidays are over. It is a Japanese custom to enjoy the festive atmosphere of the New Year. This year, as in previous years, we celebrated the New Year in a peaceful and calm mood as usual. Newspapers also do not report painful events or sad news during this holidays. We are eager to focus happy Japan and peaceful Japan, but the national debt is certainly increasing and is approaching default. I think critical thinking is still lacking in Japan.

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Setting goals can be beneficial for me to raise myself continuously. Every year end, I look back what I could achieve and what I want to challenge for next year. Once I can make clear for next objectives, I can build my schedule to overcome. As long as I am in good health and productive, I would like to enjoy developing myself. Best regards, 5971mak
Dear SaraRoseNY, Happy new year! I hope you have a great year! Thank you for your kind advice and correction. It was so helpful for me. I didn't know that adjective "old" can be potentially derogatory. I'm going to use "the elderly" from now on. The word "time-tested" is new for me. It sounds really useful for me, especially in my job. In addition, the method to avoid repetition is so informative. Thank you so much for your all advice. Best regards, mkawa
Thank you, as always.
