新型コロナウィルスによる訪問レッスン休止
シンガポール保健省は6月1日(月)でサーキットブレーカー措置を終了することを発表しました。同時に今後の活動再開を３つのフェーズ（３段階）に分けて行うことを発表しました。６月２日からフェーズ１が行います。フェーズ１は最終学年は毎日通学、他の学年は週単位で通学・在宅学習を切り替えます。しかし、人の交流については、父母宅・祖父母宅への訪問のみ条件付きでしか認められませんので、訪問レッスンは不可能です。
フェーズ１は恐らく4週間は実施します。レッスン休止は６月末までとしておりますが、状況を見ながら判断いたしますので、延長する場合もございます。再開時期は、また後日ご連絡をいたします。
今できるのはオンラインレッスンでございます。ご興味のある方は是非ご検討ください。 詳細はこちらへ。

Hungry Ghost Festival 中元節・鬼節
Updated 14 August 2018!
In 2018, the 7th lunar month starts from 11 August to 10 September with the Festival happening on 25 August.
Check out what are the 30 things you should not be doing during this time!
Experience the Hungry Ghost Festival in Singapore
You may have seen people burning paper in bins or lighted candles along the streets. Well, these are some of the things the Taoist and the Buddhist believers do during the Hungry Ghost Festival.
From August 3 to August 31 2016, it is the 7th month in the Lunar calendar. This month is known as the Hungry Ghost Festival (中元节) in Singapore. I would say it is probably most similar to the Japanese お盆.
I find it difficult to explain in my own words in Japanese, so I googled and found this:
I remember when I was young, the celebration was bigger. There would be staged Chinese opera and songs shows (歌台 getai) in almost every neighbourhood in Singapore. Nowadays, these shows are only in the old neighbourhoods where many elderly Singaporeans live such as Chinatown, Tiong Bahru, etc.
Still, check out the events you can experience below!
Experience the Hungry Ghost Festival in Singapore
And better still, take note of the superstitions (迷信) that some of us Singaporeans believe. We are mostly careful during this period. Don't say I haven't warn you!
11 Hungry Ghost Festival Superstitions
Feel free to discuss with me the differences between the Japanese obon and the Hungry Ghost Festival during our lessons or simply drop me an email!

I find it difficult to explain in my own words in Japanese, so I googled and found this:
農暦７月15日は、道教でいえば“中元节”、仏教でいえば“盂兰盆节”（yu lan pen jie）、民間の通称では“鬼节（gui jie）”と呼んで、いずれも故人や祖先を祭る節句です。
中国の言い伝えでは７月、地獄の大釜の口が開いて、あの世の鬼魂たちが現世に舞い戻って彷徨します。祭る子孫がある鬼魂は帰る処がありますが、子孫が途絶えてしまった鬼魂たちは往き場もなく街を徘徊します。この鬼魂たちが現世の人間に悪さをしないようにと、家々では祖先の鬼魂を祭るとともに、街を彷徨う無縁の鬼魂たちも同じように弔い済度を促す行事がそもそもの中元節です。
日本のいわゆる“お中元”は、親しい人お世話になった方への贈答の意味合いが濃くなっていますが、本来は中国の北魏（386年～ 534年）時代に始まった道教の“中元节”の名残り。祖先を祭る“お盆”の風習は、中国の南北朝（420年～589年）時代に盛んになった仏教の“盂兰盆节”の名残りです。

A new year and a new start
In 2016, I met many new people.
To everyone I met in 2016, be it only once or many times in a week. (haha :D)
Thank you so much! I learnt a lot through in every interaction that we had. And I hope I was of help in creating good memories in Singapore for you.

2016 Dumpling festival
The dumpling festival also know as the Dragon Boat festival falls on June 9 this year. Most Singaporean Chinese celebrate this festival by doing only one thing - eat dumplings.
My grandmother is a peranakan (Malay and Chinese mixed heritage) so I actually grow up eating my grandmother's handmade nyonya dumpling.
If you are interested in the story behind the dumpling festival and the different traditional dumplings we have in Singapore, check out last year's post here --> シンガポールの粽
This year, I'm going to introduce the premium and new flavours of dumplings here in Singapore. Check it out!
6 Places In Singapore To Get Dumplings For Dragon Boat Festival
Have you tried any or are you interested in trying any?

Recommended books for Japanese EFL learners
My students often ask me what fiction books I would recommend them to read. I have thought hard about this question. Because I am not reading Japanese fiction books myself. I find it difficult to understand the sophisticated proses writer use in storytelling.
Therefore, up to now, I have always told my students that maybe it's good to start with non-fiction books in topics you are interested in. For e.g. housewives may pick up books on cooking, travel guidebooks, flower arrangements, etc. Working adults may be interested in financial management books, public speaking, etc.
But recently, I think perhaps learners can start off with the English translations of Japanese classics. It will be a familiar storyline but understood in a different language will give different feelings and emotions. A good one to start off will be Botchan by Natsume Soseki.
Natsume Soseki books translated into English
What do you think? Any recommendations and suggestions are highly welcomed by email:)

なぜ赤ですか？
むかし「年」とよばれる凶悪な怪獣がいました。
毎年、年末になると山から下りてきて、
家畜や人を食べてしまいます。
ですが、大きな音と赤い色を恐れるので、
村の人は爆竹を鳴らし、「年」を追い払いました。
またお年玉の入った赤い袋で子どもを守り、
成長を祈願しました。
ひとびとは赤いもので家を飾りましたとさ。

boxing day
Today, December 26th, is Boxing Day.
What do you do on this day? I know some stores like Uniqlo had a Boxing Day sale this morning. I know many people sleep in because they stayed up late on both Christmas eve and Christmas day, celebrating and feasting.
For Japanese people, perhaps today is the starting of major cleaning in the house (or do you start even earlier?) as you prepare to welcome the New Year.
But, do you know that Boxing day is not related to any religion?
I certainly didn't. I have always thought that it is related to Christianity like how Christmas is.
For advanced learners, check the following link out:

シンガポールで年越し
新年を迎えるのですがみなさんはどのように年末年始を過ごされているのでしょうか？ 多くのシンガポール人は海外で年越しするのは好きで、12月下旬はかなり旅行時期のピークです。
それでも、シンガポールの年越しは、花火が打ち上がったり、カウントダウンがあります！街中で過ごす、家族で過ごす、恋人と過ごす、友達同士で過ごす、同僚同士で過ごすと様々です。BBQパーティやPotluckパーティ（各自料理を持ち寄るパーティー）を自宅やコンド内にする人が多いです。
年越し前になったらカウントダウンをして、「Happy New Year!!」と言って年明けをお祝いします！
Many Singaporeans choose to spend Christmas and New Year's overseas. Nevertheless, there are many ways to spend this festive season in Singapore. You can spend it with your family, friends, colleagues or even strangers on the streets! BBQ or potluck parties at home are also very popular where everyone gets together to countdown and wishing each other a very "Happy New Year!!"
Here are some events you can join during this holiday season in Singapore:

Xmas Cards
Sending Christmas cards to business partners, friends and family are very common among many Singaporeans. It is very similar to sending New Year postcards in Japan.
If you are thinking of having order-made postcards, how about a Christmas card with the Singapore skyline?
The above card is specially designed by a person with disabilities. Bizlink Gifts sells cards and products made by people with special needs. It is able to provide continued employment for these people.

ハロウィン
When I was in Japan, I was surprised at the attention and coverage given to Halloween by TV programs, shops and shopping malls. There were many Halloween events and parties for the young and old. Children see it as a chance to become princess and superheroes or their favourite anime character. I think yokai watch will be very popular this year?
In Singapore, Halloween is not as widely celebrated as compared to Japan. Maybe clubbing to a Halloween theme night among the young people or a trip to the USS Halloween night. That's about all, I think. No home decoration and definitely no cosplay dressing for children.
This week, I talked about Halloween with my students and hear about their views about the following article:
No tricks: Halloween all the rage in Japan as costume play
Do you agree?
For my very young students, we had fun learning about Halloween and listening to Halloween songs.
Happy Halloween! Whether you celebrate Halloween or not, I hope you have a great weekend!

For intermediate to Advanced English learners:
7 differences between Hari Raya Haji and Hari Raya Puasa
To tell you the truth, before I read this article, there are many things I do not know about Hari Raya Haji.
Now I know, Muslims do not feast nor visit their relatives on this day, unlike Hari Raya Puasa. Instead, livestock is sacrificed and the meat is offered to the people in need.
I am not sure if my Japanese skills are good enough to translate this article into Japanese. If anybody likes to help, feel free to email me! You will be credited!

中秋節
Do you know about the Mid-Autumn Festival?
September 27 this year is the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. In Singapore, it is also known as the Mooncake festival or the Lantern Festival.
In my adult English classes this week, students frequently asked me the following questions:
What do Singaporeans do on Mid-Autumn Festival?
Why are mooncakes selling everywhere?
Takashimaya has a mooncake exhibition where many hotels and shops come together to promote their mooncake.
In Chinatown, why are there so many lantern decorations?
We also discussed the different things we do in Japan and Singapore on this day.
I think the following article in Japanese correctly describes the festival in Singapore. You can learn about the festival and it is definitely a good chance to talk about it with your Singaporean friends, in English!
この機会を使い、シンガポールの知り合いと中秋節について英語で語り合いましょう！
シンガポールの中秋節 | シンガポールナビ
This time, it is also the best chance to spot the supermoon. The moon will be the closest to Earth and thus, it will appear up to 14% bigger than usual. Unfortunately, like Hong Kong, Singapore is not the best place to catch the supermoon. According to the article below, North or South America would be the best places.
Rare supermoon lunar eclipse makes for auspicious Mid-Autumn Festival - but will Hong Kong get a good view?
