Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable and insightful class as always, based on the material 'The “Cleaning Fairy” Case' that you kindly selected for me on 9 Feb. 2026.
As I mentioned in the lesson, the "Cleaning Fairy's" activities are clearly criminal.
If I woke up in the morning and found my house tidied up, I would call the police at once.
I have heard that you won't be found guilty if you shoot a burglar in your own home in the US.
In Japan, if you injure a burglar in your house, you might receive a lighter sentence or even be found not guilty.
For that reason, acting as a 'Cleaning Fairy' can be regarded not only as a crime but also as self-destructive behavior.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the material based on "Posting Zero" that you kindly selected on 18 Jan. 2026.
As I mentioned in the lesson, I have accounts of major social media sites, but I take the 'Posting Zero' method.
I suppose the 'Posting Zero' approach is good for dealing with the current social media for the following reasons today:
- There is a low risk of our privacy being leaked.
- Obtain beneficial information by considering its source.
In addition, we can expect social media companies to take action to address current issues such as fake news, misinformation and bullying.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the video "LG’s New AI Robot Promisses Consumers a ‘Zero Labor Home’" and the material based on "Inequality Linked to Longer Work Hours" that you kindly selected on 11 Jan. 2026.
1. AI Robot
As I mentioned in the lesson, Japan lags behind other countries in terms of a robot industry.
Companies such as 'Tesla', with their Tesla Bot and Optimus, and 'Boston Dynamics' are more advanced than LG and other similar companies when it comes to humanoid robots.
2. Inequality
Some Japanese workers today suffer from low wages and hard work.
Some of them work longer hours intentionally to earn overtime pay to make a living. Unfortunately, some workers are forced to work long hours. Meanwhile, some white-collar workers can earn high salaries despite doing little burden work. I agree with the contents of the article.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, and happy New Year, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the listening material and the article based on the "Southwest Airlines to Require Advance Purchase of Extra Seats" that you kindly selected on 4 Jan. 2026.
I partially agree with Southwest Airlines' policy, but the Japanese would not accept it.
In my opinion, charging more for more space is not a bad idea in terms of arifare, but this policy does not seem fair in Japan.
Among athletes, there are a few men who are as big as giants, but they shouldn't be blamed because they aren't always overweight.
For that reason, the matter will be controversial among Japanese people if an airline company applies it.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the material based on the "Why Workers Are Tired of Open-Plan Offices" that you kindly selected on 28 Dec. 2025.
As I mentioned in the lesson, I suppose that most engineers, including me, would not like open-plan offices.
In general, engineers tend to be introverted and dislike being exposed by their colleagues.
Meanwhile, they are more likely to prefer fixed desks to hot-desking for the same reason.
For that reason, the effectiveness depends on the kind of jobs and the characteristics of the workers.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the idioms and the material based on the "Preventive Raises $30 Million for Pioneering Gene Editing Research" that you kindly selected on 22 Dec. 2025.
The following idioms are very useful in an office.
1) to ramp up ≒ to increase or intensify effort, production, or activity
2) to iron out the details ≒ to resolve small problems or finalize minor aspects of a plan
3) to take something offline ≒ to discuss or handle an issue privately, outside of a public or group setting
4) to keep somebody in the loop ≒ to keep people constantly updated with the latest information
5) to walk somebody through something ≒ to walk you through step by step
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the material based on the "Meet the Japanese woman who married ChatGPT - News" that you kindly selected on 20 Dec. 2025.
As I mentioned in class, the new bride in the video may have a mental disorder.
Meanwhile, I though that she is living in a Japan of the future, far removed from the present.
There is a Japanese man who married a virtual female character. He married her in 2018, and the marriage ceremony was reported in some news media.
These behavior reflects unhealthy society in Japan.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Teams app suddenly dropped and still loading, thus I can’t connect to you.
I have no idea what to do however; I am sorry to bother you anyway.

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, the following similar vocabulary and from the material based on the "The US Parents Raising Their Kids Like It's 1999" that you kindly selected on 26 Nov. 2025.
1) jealous vs envious
2) imply vs infer
3) uninterested vs disinterested
I found explaining the 1) vocabulary differences the most difficult.
This is because, in Japanese, there is only one word "Ura yama shi i" with that meaning.
Japanese people interpret that word in various ways based on the surrounding context.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from new Idioms and the material based on the "One Job Isn’t Enough - The Rise of Polyworking" that you kindly selected on 23 Nov. 2025.
1) get a taste of one's own medicine: to experience the same unpleasant treatment you gave to others.
2) a blessing in disguise : something that seems bad at first but turns out to be good
3) Every cloud has a silver lining: Even bad situations have something positive in them.
I will use these idioms in my day-to-day conversations.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the the material based on the "Will Trump’s Trade War Break America’s Addiction to Cheap Stuff?" that you kindly selected on 15 Nov. 2025.
According to the news, some U.S. citizens wrongly believe that other countries must pay reciprocal tariffs.
In fact, U.S. citizens pay the tariffs through higher prices for imported products unless they purchase only products made in the US.
President Trump, once being an entrepreneur himself, was of course familiar with this tariff system.
However, it appears that he has absolutely no understanding of ordinary citizens with common sense.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |

Thank you so much, Sarah.
It was an enjoyable, tactful class, as always, from the the material based on the "Complete the sentences with the correct preposition and your own ideas" and article "Elon Musk set to become world's first trillionaire" that you kindly selected on 13 Nov. 2025.
Here is my answer. No. 2, 4 were a little difficult for me.
1. I’ve never understood the point of budge.
2. Where I live, there’s been a rise in population.
3. Most of my friends have an interest in Japanese horror movies.
4. I wish we could find a solution to the lost pension issue.
5. I’d love to prove the existence of extraterrestrial entities.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking your next class. |
