If any of these sound like you, then the ICC Outreach program is for you!
The ICC Outreach Program joins students from Japan and abroad in pairs to create a lesson about the international student’s home country/culture and present it at a local Japanese school, to promote intercultural understanding.
Details of the program will be explained by the ICC at an orientation.
Get to know interesting people, visit a Japanese school and have fun interacting with young students!
