A problem in current language education system in Japan

There has been argument about whether the subject of English should be learned at primary school or not in Japan for resent years.
Japanese compulsory education system has mainly two parts like primary school for about six to 12 years-old students and junior high school for about 12 to 15 years-old. Then most of them choose to go high school for three years afterwards. English is required subject in the six years of junior high school and high school but not in primary school. It might be one of reason why, as a rule, Japanese people is said to tend to weak in English.
The main worry of some people about learning English in primary school would come from the “fear of losing some Japanese identity”. From this point of view, people are nervous because it may affect even the study of Japanese subject which they believe is still in an immature stage at the time and the furthermore language would be pressure on students.
However, Gardner suggests that there would be a certain advantage if English is started to learn in an early stage because when he taught his students English as a second language in high school he discovered the fact that they apparently have more difficulty in leaning it than their siblings who were studying in primary school.
Personally, I think Japan should make new curriculum for English study in primary school, which would bring positive affects on students as the writer indicates that many studies have revealed that knowing other languages and cultures help Japanese identity to make it stronger. A case of point is Korea which adopted English program in primary school ten years ago. Besides, New Zealand Education minister considers about leaning second languages such as Chinese and Pacific Island’s language as well though it is worried because it may be high pressure on students.
If it is adopted, there would be some problems, but I still hope that English will be started to learn in early age. It must contribute to especially the ability of speaking and listening

Language education

I finally choose my topic which is English Education system in Japan.

The reason why I chose this topic is that now I’m thinking to be an English teacher in the future though I’m not sure. So I thought to research and think about it would be useful for me. Besides, I have been suspicious about the Education system including the subject of English for long time, but I have not thought of it seriously till now.

However, I’m not going to talk about only English education system in Japan. I would like to take up some relevant topics as well such as language education in the other countries.

I am going to upload later on.
Please keep your eyes on*v* thanks.
