Seems there was some miscommunication, and I'm not sure how much of it was due to the language barrier.

Hmm... I'd like to see how they handle this one. :)

The way most teachers in Japan survive. Write up a basic speech and practice the heck out of it until it's memorized.

You know, thats really one of those things they should have mentioned when he first arrived.

Poor Karl...

I can relate to Carl's situation, not to mention his stress level. Gotta do a 5-minute presentation in complete Japanese flawlessly as part of my final grade. Love to see what he does and hopefully the same can work for me too.

Dang, they didn't even make sure you could speak Japanese before you became a teacher over there??
