| This can be pretty frustrating for an American(or English speaker or someone who looks white) in Japan. |

I don`t have that problem. Usually people speak to me in Japanese quickly, so I can`t always understand what they say.
Although when I used to do language exchanges, they did end up being mostly in English, but that was partly because some of the people had no clue how to teach Japanese. |
