Get a partner and teach each other! Language & Culture Exchange (Fall 2024)

Poster

The highly popular ICC Language & Culture Exchange Program is back!

  • Do you want to practice a language or learn more about another culture?
  • Do you want to make new friends at Waseda?

If so, then LCE is perfect for you!

In this program, people within Waseda University are matched in pairs or threes to teach each other.

Participants’ Comments

“It was very meaningful experience to communicate with friends with different national backgrounds. Even though we had different mother tongues, we were able to understand each other and exchange views with a lot of fun. “

“I can ask my language partner about Japanese grammar that I did not yet understand in the class. At the weekends sometimes we can also hang out together and visit museums.”

“It is a great way to do language exchange, especially for those who are more shy in approaching others. Had I not signed up for this program, the only real-life exposure to Japanese I would have gotten last semester probably would’ve been through class. In fact, I have just now joined a circle, a Japanese language cafe at a church, etc.”

Matching done only once per semester, so sign up now!
