Singapore, Polytechnic<\/span><\/h2>\r\n

2nd-year of the Department of Business Administration: AKASAKI, MomosePeriod of study: August 23\/2022 \u2013 September 19\/ 2022TOBITATE! Study Abroad Initiative (Academic (take off) Course)<\/p>\r\n\r\n

I joined a 28-day language training at Polytechnic in Singapore.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

I went to the Polytechnic every day and stayed there until the evening, the same as Japanese schools. The classes were all done in English and I took the classes with local students in Singapore. I learned many things such as new vocabulary, grammar, and correct pronunciation.
\r\nI understood well because the teacher explained with gestures, pictures, and drawings for us to understand easily. I sometimes didn\u2019t understand what the teacher said, but my classmates explained it to me in simple English. I made many friends, and they corrected me or helped me when I made mistakes. They taught me how fun to communicate in English.
\r\nWe had a speech once a week in English, and I managed to demonstrate the basic speech, gestures I learned. I realized my language skills getting better and that gave me confidence.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\"2018ryugaku06_01\"\r\n

Having meals with friends at a restaurant<\/p>\r\n

My friends took me to many places after school.
\r\nWe went to tourist spots and a special place that only local people knew that was not in the guidebook, a restaurant that provided delicious food, a popular store, and recommended snacks and juice at a supermarket. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I joined a tour to learn Singapore\u2019s history at school. I learned many historical heritages, also there were things I paid attention to because local people mentioned them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

I saw Marina Bay Sands and Merlion when we went to the famous Merlion park. I had only seen them on TV shows and in pictures, so I was very impressed because they were beautiful and I was happy to have an opportunity to feel different cultures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\"2018ryugaku06_01\"\r\n

I spent very meaningful time during the training and it would stay in my mind because people in Singapore were nice. It is my assets that I got many memories as well as met wonderful friends and colleagues. It has opened the door widely for the world. I would like to keep learning English hard and participate in international interaction. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
