Let’s speak Japanese!
Do you try your hardest in Japanese class but as soon as you leave the room…?
“I don’t really have a chance to speak much”
“It’s hard to make Japanese friends”
Do any of these thoughts seem familiar to you?
If so, then join the popular ICC Japanese Chat Club (aka, Pera Pera Club), which is designed to help you communicate in Japanese and enjoy “real” conversation with Japanese students.
If you find it hard to meet and get to know new people, the “club” style of this program means that you can meet and chat with the same members many times, and get to know each other better.
In order to allow as many international students to participate as possible we will be continuing the online format again this semester. You can participate from any campus, from home or even from outside Japan!
This is a chance for you to practice your Japanese and to grow your Waseda network even a little so that you will feel more comfortable when you come to campus.
