Naraigoto ~Culture Lesson of Japanese kids~

Naraigoto is culture lesson or after-school lesson in Japanese.
These are the famous lessons many Japanese kids are learning.

There are many English lesson class for kids in Japan, but actually there are few Japanese who can speak English in the usual elementary or junior highschool.
Japanese school teach all  subject in Japanese and English class is set just as optional class.

3:Piano Class
Piano will be the most famous class of music.

5: Abacus
Likewise Calligraphy, it has been losing popularity. Everything is changing to digital now.

Classical Ballet is said to be made girl good figure.

7: Soccer  / Baseball
In the past, there were kids baseball teams more than kids soccer teams but soccer is getting popular after the establishment of J-League(Japanese soccer League)in 1993.

Sometimes kids are affected by something and start learning it, as
start learning figure skating after seeing Vancouver Olympic or start
learning tennis after seeing anime "Tennis no oujisama".
Many kids may start learning soccer seeing world cup game (^^)/

Now there are so many lessons other than these lessons like "Dance", "Computer", "Painting", "Cooking Class", "Karate", "Boxing", "Rugby" etc...
What kind of Lesson are there in other countries?
Kids have a lot of opportunity to recognize what they like or what sense do they have.

FYI, the No1 lesson was not in the above classes. No1 lesson was cram-school.
Average monthly cost for culture lesson is about ¥5,000 for 1 subject and the total cost of culture lesson is about ¥10,000yen per month, and the average cost for cram-school is ¥10,000~¥30,000 per month.

Many Japanese kids are crammed in the cram-school after the school...
