私は、日本語を外国人に教えていると同時に、英語を習っています。 最近、言語を勉強するということは、ただ文法や単語を覚えればいいのではないと思うようになりました。つまり、それぞれの国の文化の違いを知って、理解、尊重しなければならないと思うのです。そんな日々の生活の中で、気づいたことを書いていこうと思います。 また、皆さまのコメントを楽しみにしています。日本語か英語で書いて下さい。
I'm teaching Japanese to foreigners and also learning English. Recently, I think that studying a language doesn't mean just memorizing grammar and vocabulary. What I mean is, we need to know the differences between cultures and we should understand and respect this. I'm going to be writing about things that I notice around me in my daily life. And I'm looking really forward to reading your comments. Please write them in Japanese or English.

新しいブログの立ち上げおめでとう御座います。小生も輸入で英語を多少使っておりますが
、年に何度か理解に苦しむ場面があります。
理解と尊重、同感です。これからもがんばってください。
Hi Keiko,
Thanks for sharing with me about your blog. I totally agree that studying a language is not just about understanding grammar and vocabulary from texbooks within a classroom environment. It is also about cultural exchanges and lifestyle. It should be not only academic-oriented, but also social-oriented.
I look forward to reading what you will share about your daily life. I will provide my comments from time to time. Should you need my help, feel free to let me know. Good luck!
ヤッホー！！恵子へ、見ましたよブログ！！ステキ！今度は、写真なども入れてくださいませ。楽しみにしているからね。
Hello!
I found your blog completely by chance, and I'm so glad I did! It offers a wonderful chance for me to improve my comprehension of written Japanese.
From 1995-98, I lived on the Pacific coast of Chiba-ken. I taught English in a public junior high school, and during my free time I pursued my deep interest in Japanese religions, history and culture.
To learn even more about these things, I want to improve my language skills, and your blog seems like the perfect way to do so!

I also have a blog, ohenrosan.blogspot.com.
