 note = {P(論文), This paper gives suggestions as to how a foreign teacher of English conversation at a Japanese university can best deal with the fact that Japanese students have minimal English speaking skills, never raise their hands to ask questions, and have no confidence in English conversation. Ten helpful suggestions are enumerated that can serve as aids to survival in an unfamiliar environment like that found at a Japanese university. Faced with endless rows of students who have minimal English skills, have never raised their hand to ask a question in their educational lives, and have no confidence in English, how does one survive? This is the starting point from which anyone teaching English in Japan must begin. The road to survival is long and torturous, and is strewn with the unfulfilled dreams of countless conversation teachers who have given up and dropped out in despair. Survival is possible, but it is far from easy. There are signposts along the way, and hopefully this brief handbook will serve as a rough map that will allow new teachers to steer a course toward successful college teaching in Japan. Below are ten important signposts to follow.},
