  1. Hi, Matt.

    This is Noya and now I'm looking forward to Golden Week holidays!
    Well, I want to do my presentation about the comparison of the crime rates in my hometown, Tsukuba and those in Huchu City where I am living in now.
    I am also curious about where is the safest city or the most dangerouns city in the world and why they are. So this is my another topic idea.
    See you next time!!

  4. Hi,Matt. This is Yoji Nagamori. How are you doing?

    For the presentation topic, I would like to research about Jane Jacobs. In the last class, we read an article about Jane Jacobs. I want to learn more about her opinions and methods for urban planning.
    Another topic is about the town I live. Especially, I am interested in the measures which have been taken in order to make my town safe.

    See you next time!

  5. Hi, Matt! How are you doing? This is Shota Yamaki. I'm enjoying my Golden Week very much.
    I'm thinking of doing a presentation on the most dangerous city and the safest city in Japan and in China since I'm learning Chinese. I'm also interested in comparing the crime rates and the safety measures taken in the 3 places I've lived before.

  6. Hello, Matt! I'm Sayaka Kasuya.
    I'm having quite busy golden week
    because I have to study for the small
    exams on Friday and I also have plans to
    meet friends...

    By the way, the first topic I'm interested in
    is about my home city--Machida's crime rate.
    I also want to know what kind of crime rate is
    the highest and the reason why.
    The second topic is about CPTED.
    I want to know how does it work, and I also
    want to know that whether Machida has any CPTED
    ideas or not.

    Have a nice golden week!
    See you on Thursday!
