In September, the tenth grade (15-16 year-olds) is planning a project about cultures, customs and perspectives from foreign countries. For this purpose, the school would like to involve university students from other countries, asking questions and exchanging ideas with people from various backgrounds in its English Communication and Presentation classes. Students will use the information gathered during those classes and create presentations for their classmates and the whole school based on what they learned.
The program is a great opportunity to get a taste of what Japanese school is like and is ideal for those interested in intercultural education, volunteering and exchanging with Japanese high school students.
This is a rare chance, so don’t miss it!
