Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material '70% of Japanese Think They're Safe from Online Scams' that you kindly selected for me on 30 August 2026.
As exemplified by scammers posing as police officers with fake identification cards, online scams have become more elaborate than ever before.
Consequently, it is extremely difficult for people, especially the elderly, to distinguish between legitimate requests and frauds.
Given this reality, the survey result indicates that many people dangerously underestimate the threat of online scams.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'FIRE Movement Helps People Retire Early' that you kindly selected for me on 25 August 2026.
The concept of 'FIRE' has become quite prevalent in Japanese society recently.
This is because a growing number of Japanese people are interested in achieving financial independence.
In fact, single employees at my previous company were quick to take advantage of the early retirement program to receive a severance package.
They plan to use this money to fund their FIRE lifestyle.
Meanwhile, it is quite risky for families with children to pursue FIRE, as raising a child requires significant educational and living expenses.
Therefore, I recommend that people with families maintain a steady and stable lifestyle.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Japanese Workers Tired of Unwritten Office Rules' that you kindly selected for me on 23 August 2026.
It's true that there are many unwritten and undefined rules in our office.
To make matters worse, these rules can undermine employees' motivation, which is ultimately detrimental to the company.
However, I'm optimistic about resolving this issue.
I expect the younger generation of employees to abolish these unspoken rules once the current senior staff retire.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Laptops Now More Important for Students than Books' that you kindly selected for me on 22 August 2026.
As I mentioned in the lesson, I appreciate both paper books and laptops because each has its own unique advantages.
Personally, I would like to take full advantage of both items.
However, I strongly recommend that most students continue to use paper books, because entrance exams are still mainly paper-based.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Food Tax Cut Approved by Japanese Cabinet' that you kindly selected for me on 16 August 2026.
Before the House of Representatives election this year, not only the LDP but also other political parties pledged to reduce the food tax.
It is quite natural that the current ruling party, the LDP, is following through on its election promise.
Meanwhile, it is ridiculous that the opposition parties are now against the tax reduction, doing a complete about-face.
However, since the tax cut will only last for two years and retailers will likely prioritize their own profits over passing the savings on to consumers, prices won't actually go down.]
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Japan's Companies Rank Lowest for AI Satisfaction' that you kindly selected for me on 2 August 2026.
As I mentioned in the lesson, Japanese IT companies lag behind those of other countries in the AI industry because the software sector has traditionally been made light of in Japan.
In addition, senior workers in traditional Japanese companies are more likely to be stubborn and have lower levels of computer literacy.
To make matters worse, there are some people who consider utilizing AI to be a form of cheating that makes people lazy.
For these reasons, Japanese companies were ranked lowest for AI satisfaction in the survey.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class.

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Declining Population Could Mean a Better Economy' that you kindly selected for me on 26 July 2026.
Some experts argue that a declining population has advantages, such as a population size that is more appropriate for the Japan's land area.
However, the advantages of this trend will not outweigh the disadvantages.
A shrinking population may cause public services to deteriorate because fewer workers will be available to maintain essential facilities.
As a result, this could lead to other serious problems in the near future.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Japan Relaxes Succession Rules, but Male-Only Law Remains' that you kindly selected for me on 19 July 2026.
I recently learned about the amendment to the Imperial House Law in Japan.
After reading the article, I looked for details on the revision because I was interested in who the next emperor of Japan will be.
Despite the amendment, Princess Aiko cannot ascend the throne because even the revised law does not accept female succession.
However, I expect that a female emperor will be accepted in the future, in line with the global trend toward gender equality.
I am concerned that such conservative aspects of Japanese culture and history may have a negative influence on the country's image in the world.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Germany to Make It Harder for Workers to Call in Sick' that you kindly selected for me on 12 July 2026.
Based on my experience, most traditional Japanese companies require their employees to submit a doctor's note if they take long-term sick leave.
I agree with the article regarding the importance of this kind of evidence to prevent employees from abusing sick leave or skipping work.
However, getting a doctor's note is extremely expensive in Japan.
Therefore, companies should offer cost-effective alternatives to a doctor's note.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class.

Thank you so much, May.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'Japanese Mayor Will Be First to Take Maternity Leave’ that you kindly selected for me on 23 June 2026.
It was not until I read the article that I realized current Japanese law does not allow politicians to take 14 weeks of maternity leave.
Nowadays, the number of female mayors has been increasing.
So, I recommend that the Japanese government amend the current law to allow politicians to take maternity leave.
I was also a little bit surprised that Mayor Kawata is the first mayor to take maternity leave.
Of course, there are a lot of female mayors in Japan, but their average age is over 50 years old.
For this reason, she has become an exemplary mayor in contemporary Japanese society.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |
