  2. Before I forget - what is the situation for #JSOL in Japan these days?

    JSOL = Japanese for Speakers of Other Languages. I'm not sure what they really call it in Japan.

    When I was there, non-Japanese speaking elementary students all had one class once a month at an elementary school - not their home school, necessarily.

    Surely the situation has to be better than that by now?
