Re: Learning English in Japan? Japanese in America?

There's probably a good reason behind it, like a lack of teachers or something. Hahah, yeah, your Chinese is probably better than mine. I can hardly hold a conversation in Mandarin! Do your language classes have exams that count towards your final overall grade? If they don't, then that's probably why the school isn't putting such a great emphasis on them.

Er... I'm afraid I don't understand your question? Are you simply asking if we have tests? If yes... then yes. lol And we still have midterms and finals, like every other class.

Re: Learning English in Japan? Japanese in America?

Ummmm... as in, do those tests culminate along with tests from other courses in your final GPA? Or are they just an add-on to your report card, without any real significance (apart from you being able to learn a new language, yadda yadda)?

Re: Learning English in Japan? Japanese in America?

Yeah, it goes into my GPA. In fact, you're required to take a language where I go to school. Which is one of the reasons I find it so puzzling that they aren't putting more effort into it. It's not like the requirement is even in the electives section for requirements!

Re: Learning English in Japan? Japanese in America?

Ehh.
I learnt English the hard way. I used to have 4 or five books for it.
Comprehenshion.
Vocabulary
Normal reading book.
Verbs/nouns/grammar.

Every day of the week! Not to mention the hard tests and questions ^_^ But hey, it helped me a lot.
As for Japanese I learnt only few phrases.
