Despite having learned some Japanese, I still struggled hard trying to explain myself. After the semester commenced, I started taking theme classes that focus on daily conversation and correct oral expression. In those classes, the teacher asked us to memorise some useful sentences before encouraging us to be creative by making our own sentences with the original structure. After that, we would talk as much as we could. Those classes were enjoyable and bestowed upon me the confidence to talk outside of school too. As I returned to the city ward office again, I was pleasantly surprised at how much simpler the process became.With a stronger foundation, I began to take harder classes. For example, I took the Comprehensive class that was a lot more demanding. Yet, the class was able to develop my Japanese holistically as I could talk, write and listen better. Moreover, I was taught how to write proper Japanese formal emails and essays. By taking harder classes progressively, my daily life in Japan is now made easier as the language barrier has greatly reduced.Within a year, I am now able to handle my daily affairs in Japan independently most of the time. For example, I can now settle government administration, plan a trip, place a reservation and most importantly make more friends! ・Ainu・Arabic ・Basque・Cantonese ・Chinese ・Danish ・Filipino ・French・German ・Greek SP2 students must take Japanese language courses offered by the Center for Japanese Language (CJL) and earn the designated number of credits before graduation.
