A Day In The Life – English Conversation School In Japan

English is spoken all over the world friendo. My Japanese friend’s Italian husband speaks nearly fluent English (although he said his parents don’t.) Same reason you could study English and expect to use it when visiting most places in Europe, even if it’s not the traditional language in said country.

What blows my mind a bit more is people who spend $1000′s on English lessons for a 4 day trip to L.A. or something. I think it’s admirable, but just a waste of time and money when they never do a dang bit of practice outside of class (!!)

Uh, how about the part where the guy said “I have cancer.” when asked “How was your weekend?” That’s not a language mistake.

Or the part where he has to sing in the kids class and they make fun of him? Not a language mistake.

Or the guy who asks “Why do you Americans go around the world killing people?”

Or the woman wearing the shirt with the marijuana leaf on it?

Or the guy who said the teacher looks like David Beckham?

Or the guy who says Americans have hamburgers for breakfast?

All not language mistakes, just humorous events in any eikaiwa teacher’s job. I know I’ve had almost all of them happen to me. Lighten up =p

Heh, all of those, really? How did you respond to your student saying “I have Cancer”?
