My first year at university
A year has past since I got into Mie University. This year was very fruitful.
First, I got a lot of good friends. The English majors are nice. It is pleasant to talk with them. At the university festival in October, we made and sold okonomiyaki. We achived success through working hard together. The university festival is a pleasant and precious memory.
Second, English became closer to me. When I had the first English class, I was surprised and confused because the professor spoke only English and we had to speak English too. It is still very difficult for me even now, but it seems useful for us. Generally speaking, the teaching of English in Japan tends to set reading above speaking. I think listening and speaking English is more important.
Third, I started to learn how to teach students. I had been taught by teachers until graduating from high school. I felt freshness.
This year flashed by because I had a good time. Two month from now, new freshmen will come in and we will be sophomores. And learning must be more difficult. I’m going to do my best with my classmates. I wish our lives in next year are in good health, happy and fruitful too.
Thank you very much, Ruedi!

どういたしまして。It’s been a pleasure teaching you.
I hope the remaining three years will go as well as this one went!
