Angry Re: English as a second language

Dear tdol,
I think you are an English teacher in Tokyo aren't you?
In Japan TOEIC or Japanese special exam "eiken" are very common.
However, I think that there should be more exams which have important conversation tests, such as Cambridge Exam ( I took FCE ) and IELTS.
These qualification don't work for resume in Japan because they don't know them.
If they work very much, we have to speak English more.
It's good for Japanese.

In Europe Cambridge qualification have good for job hunting. Right?
I don't agree with the system of Japanese education (about English) at all !!
What do you think?
