JKid-san ありがとうございます！！！:dogeza: Javizy-san Good question! って点 is quite colloquial expression, but sounds natural to me. As you have already noticed, 点 has a bit stiff nuance. But I think we use this when we're talking to friends but still want to express the opinion logically. タネ -san とてもいい文章だと思います！！:grin: >>>自分の学習スタイルに自分の学習スタイルに合わせると言う点でホームスクールがいいと思いますが、どんなカリキュラムを使うかの決定が難しい。 →If you change "合わせる" to "合わせられる", your sentence would be perfect!! kellysensei -san 猫が好きですか？ I think your sentence is very good. But いいです is not necessary.:wink: かわいさという点で、わたしの子猫は一番です。 highbridge -san

Homeschooling is good for matching learning style (to the student), but deciding on curriculum is difficult. I speak from experience as a home-schooling mom. どうぞよろしく。 Please tell me if this sentence works (o how to say it properly)

The concept is useful for explaining things in daily conversation, but I wonder if this expression is suitable for that. I was thinking って点 might sound a bit weird. Is it okay to use either form with friends, or does it sound a bit stiff? By the way, I agree that this format is great, and I always look forward to these lessons :cool: I’ve seen という点 a bit, but I didn’t know how to use it myself.

I first heard about it in Hamburg, then read about the one in Asakusa. Haven't personally been, however. The one in Germany has blind employees who introduce you to your table and serve the food. It's completely dark inside, but you order in the foyer, which is lighted so you can read the menu. Or so I read. I’ve heard of this!
