Throughout the 20th century, many scientists believed that bilingual children would have trouble concentrating and learning in school. In the last decade, however, studies have proved just the opposite.

People that speak more than one language often perform better on tests that measure problem solving, concentration, mental flexibility and multitasking.

Basically, speaking more than one language keeps your brain fit!

Over half of the world’s population speak more than one language, and most countries have more than one official language. Native English speakers usually only grow up speaking one language.

Young children learn language easily, but that’s because they’re constantly surrounded by native speakers! Unfortunately, adults don’t have that luxury.

Bilingual brains have more grey matter. This part of the brain controls our muscles, sight, hearing, emotions, speech, and decision making. Learning another language makes our brains work harder and builds up our grey matter.

Some schools in the U.K. and America have started conducting lessons in one language in the morning and switching to a different language for lessons in the afternoon. Teachers say that the children concentrate much better and have more self-esteem.

For adults, it’s sometimes hard to stay motivated when learning another language, so make sure it’s always an enjoyable experience! Be sure to set goals for yourself, try a lot of different learning activities and talk to native speakers as much as you can.

Don’t worry about the mistakes you make, after all, the reward for all that hard work is well worth it!

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

#232のPodcastで話した、海外旅行で良かったことについて話しました。今回は日本の良いところについて話します。

日本の良いところです。
・清潔感がある
・サービスが丁寧
・物や食べ物、サービスが安い

一つずつ話します。
・清潔感がある
　みなさんも日本に来た時に感じるかもしれないですが、日本はどこもきれいで清潔感がありますね。もちろん、そうじゃない所もありますが、みなさんが旅行などで行くだいたいの場所はとてもきれいだと思います。トイレもとてもきれいでビックリする人もいるかもしれないですね。無料ですしね。

・サービスが丁寧ていねい
　これはいい面でも、そうでない面でもありますが、接客せっきゃくがとても丁寧です。お客さまを大切にする、という考え方が根底にあるので、フラットな関係ではなく、お客さまを少し上にして接する関係があります。お客さんそれをわかっているので、少し上から接してしまうこともあります。

・物やサービスが安い
消費者、買う人にとってはいいことですね。日本の食べ物やサービスのクオリティがあった上で、値段を見ると、とても安いと思います。寿司とか100均とか。海外の方からすると驚くかもしれないです。僕からすると、この値段設定が日本の給料が上がらない問題にもつながっているといる思うので、そろそろ値段が上がっていくといいなぁ、と思います。

ということで、日本のいい所、簡単に3つ話しました。
旅行で日本に来られる方も本当に増えていますね。
ぜひみなさんが感じた日本の良いところや、海外の良いところ、オンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
