Mukoyōshi: an age-old samurai tradition reinvented to suit the demands of business leaders in patriarchal Japan
The main objective of this video-based lesson is to help your students practice listening for detail and to spark a class discussion that can span a whole variety of topics. You're likely to touch upon such issues as Japan's traditional society , the position of women in the workplace and in the family, marriage as a business proposal, or low fertility rates around the world, to name just a few.
The vocabulary exercises will introduce your learners to words and expressions useful when talking about marriage and family, as well as a bunch of business phrasal verbs.
