[Student's Voice]
◎Name: Amy Myat Cho ◎Country of Origin: Myanmar
Student life at Konan University is more stimulating and fulfilling than I imagined. There are many kind students around me, and I learn something new every day in class, so I feel very fortunate to be in such a great environment. I enjoy spending my days having lunch and studying with my friends.
[Teacher's Voice]
◎Name: Hirai Kazuki ◎Affiliation: Specially Appointed Associate Professor, University-Wide General Education Center
At university, you will learn more about Japanese, including idiomatic expressions, technical terms, how to write reports and papers, and how to give presentations. Even if you feel anxious about the classes or the Japanese language, our faculty members will support you, so let's work hard together.
