    A fullfiling life studying abroad The future is now.

    reショヒナさん.jpgのサムネイル画像

    Hello. My name is Shokhina Aminova from Tajikistan. I have been studying hard at the Foreign Student Department(Bekka) to enter a Japanese university in the future.

    There are various classes in the Bekka course from Monday to Friday, such as Reading for details, Integrated Japanese, Studies in Japanese Language, Speaking, English, and Japanese cultural Studies. Each class comes with many assignments and I'm busy with them everyday. However, when I see the teachers teaching us with enthusiasm, I have realized what a privileged environment I am in and it motivates me to study even harder.  

    Besides, there are many opportunities not only for studying but also for experiencing Japanese cultures, such as the tea ceremony and kimono wearing experience. There are also many events including the Koshigaya city tour as well as the field trip to Tokyo. These events can be enjoyed even more when participating together with my Bekka classmates and exchange students. I also have the opportunity to communicate with Japanese students during lunch time. I talk about my favorite Japanese anime and comics, Japanese food, etc and can make Japanese friends that way.

    The teachers and staff are all really kind and always help me when I have difficulties and concerns. The advice from them is very helpful and easy to understand.

    Thanks to Bekka, I'm having a fulfilling life studying abroad now. I want to keep working hard every single day toward my dream. 

    I recommend the Foreign Student Department of Bunkyo University to those who, like me, want to make their dreams come true in Japan.

    Wonderful educational life in bekka

    写真_ヤシミさん.jpg

    My name is Yashmi, and I am studying at Bunkyo University's Foreign Student Department(Bekka). I'm twenty years old and from Sri Lanka. When I came to Japan last year and was wondering which school to study Japanese at, my friend recommended Bekka to me. Before entering Bekka, I took a Japanese language course for half a year at Bunkyo University. Thanks to this course, I was able to pass the NAT-TEST level 3.

    After that, I applied and was able to enroll in the Bekka course. I always think that Bekka's system is good when attending the classes from Monday to Friday. The system means the way the teachers teach, the content of the classes, and things outside of the classes. The teachers' teaching methods are very good. They always teach Japanese in an easy-to-understand manner. They explain everything in detail so that everyone can understand. When there is a difficult part of studying, the teachers kindly explain it over and over again, so everyone feels relaxed.

    On the other hand, there are many other things besides studying. I'm happy because I can participate in sports festival, trips, and social gatherings with everyone. It was great because there were events in addition to my studies. My Japanese language level has been steadily improving. It's all thanks to the teachers. All the teachers work hard to teach us, so I feel more motivated. That's why I'm so grateful to all the teachers. I would recommend Bekka to everyone, just as I learned about Bekka.

    留学生活を楽しむ

    2019年9月、私は日本に来ました。外国人留学生別科で一年半の学習生活を過ごして、別科の推薦入試に合格して文学部日本語日本文学科の学生になりました。大学では専門的な知識を勉強していますが、ときどき別科での生活が懐かしくなります。別科にいる時は日本語を楽しく勉強していましたが不安になったり悩んだりした時には、優しい先生たちと国際交流課の方たちがいるので、すべて相談できました。そして、市内見学とスピーチ大会も自分の視野を広げました。
    日本にいる二年半は、まさに光陰矢の如しです。この間にいろいろな経験を積み重ねて成長したと思います。今の私はいろいろな友達ができて、日本語力も進歩して、過去の自分を超えました。将来、私は日本の会社に就職したいです。そのために、これからもっと頑張りたいと思います。
    皆さんも、ぜひ留学生活を楽しんでください。
