My major in the university is Japanese and international economic and trade.Some of you may feel a little confused about it as it seems like two majors.In fact,I got two academic degrees which concludes economic and Japanese when I was graduated.It sounds like very cool to get two degrees at the same time ,maybe it’s true,but it’s also very hard since we had to pay more time to have the class and actually it is a pity that the course  we had under the system of teaching shown no direct relation between economic and Japanese learning.And I think I hadn’t learnt both of them very well,so I came out an idea that I want to take the exam of Business Japanese .I’d like to find the relation between economic and Japanese in the preparation for the exam.

MY MAJOR

My major is English education.
In this major, I  learn  English grammar, English communication and a method of English education
But I'm studying the mental development of children and an educational system in Japan now.

To tell the truth, I don't want to be a teacher  so much.
I'd like to get a job which I can have relationship with foreign people.
So I want to develop my English through talking with them.

Hello. I'm Hiromi Tanaka.


I'm majoring in English Education, studying pedagogy and advanced English.
But this will be mainly learned in sophomore and junior,
so now is the time for preparing and improving by myself by reading books and taking TOEIC tests.

As I want to teach English in high school, I'm going to particularly pursue English as language in university ,not only English as communication.

Therefore, I'm very looking forward to studying English philology in professor Okuno's class next semester. In that class, he will lecture about each preposition and word's function.


During my college days, I want to contact with English from various sides.


Thank you for reading　☺☺

About my major

 I'm majoring in music education. I want to be a music teacher of junior high school, so I'll take a license of it.
 

  In the music education course, we learn about that how to teach music to children and some skills of music. Now we are learning about the skill part. For example, music history, piano playing, singing, ensemble, and solfege.
 

 At the ensemble class, a few students play the songs together. We have played in ways of body percussion, recorder and koto or shakuhachi.
 

 At the solfege class, we learn about how to feel and express musics. Sometimes it's simillar than philosophy. It's little difficult to understand but I like this class the best.

 

 This is the piano practicing room in the music education corse area. There are about 10 practicing rooms and most of them are for individual practice. Only students in music education course can use those rooms. Each of them are very narrow but air-conditionated. Practicing in those rooms are comfortable enough.

The Reason Why I'm majoring in the Mechanical Engineering

Hey, guys! My name is Ryunosuke. Today, I'm going to talk why I'm majoring in the mechanical engineering.

I decided to become an engineer because I was inspired by some medias. In particular, some video games give me great ideas and the dream. For example, "Armored Core" is the great reason why I would like to create robots. A series of Armored Core is famous for the high speed mech action(Official Video / Game play part1 / part2). You can find that how Armored Core is so cool with watching videos.
Also, I was inspired by the game, "WipEout." (gameplay is here) WipEout is a series of futuristic racing video game. Players compete in the anti-gravity racing[1].

These are the reason why I'm majoring in the engineering. So how is the reality? Accoring Suidobashi Heavy Industry, they finished to make the 4-leg robot, "KURATAS." The developers aimed to export it and play games with it.

[ KURATAS (SHI), note: it's not CGI! ]

Of course, there are so many other inventions. Mech technologies, especially robots is more and more getting improved. I desire to become the pioneer of the innovation in the mechanical engineering in the future.

My Major

Good morning.

I'm Erika Nishimura.



I belong to a faculty of education and I'm studying about English education.

I want to be an elementary school teacher.

These days, teaching English to elementary school students is being widely talked about.

I'm very interestd in the topic.

I think it is important for children to come into contact with English but while they are elementary

students,  the most important thing is a feeling of "English is enjoyable!"

I want to be a teacher who is able to teach the pleasure of English.

So I should study English and education more and more to be such teacher.


Thank you for reading.

Have a nice day!

My Major

I am a student of the faculty of pedagogy.
My major is educational science.
Have you ever heard it ？
Frankly speaking, I did not know about it very much before I entered the university.
And now, it is little difficult for me to describe it.

In the special educational science course, we study about the problem of education.  
We study them in different points, for example, educational sociology, the study of social education , history of education, the study of public educational administration and so on.

Last Wednesday, we discuss home education.
The topic is how should be home education.
According to the government and the media, these days parents tend to overprotection.
However, they did not become  overprotection in fact!
Why parents are said such?
Originally what is  home education?
How should be home education ?
We had a good time to discuss them!
They are interesting questions for me !

Now,I am interested in social education and the difference of education among regions and countries.
I feel happy to study various things in the university!!

I have not decided what I am doing after graduation.
There are many charming occupations but I want to choose a job has a relation to children!
I should think my future more seriously:(
Anyway, I am going to study harder and enjoy studying now.

My major

Good evening, I'm Yujiro Osanai.
I major in English education.
So, I'm studying English mainly, but I'm studying about education too.

Recently I noticed I'm intrested in education itself not English education.
I like English the best of all subject, so if I become teacher, I would like to be English teacher in junior high school.

For the moment, I want to learn education more.
Thank you.

My Major

Good evening everyone!

I belong to a faculty of education and my major is English.
The reason why I chose this major is because I want to be an English teacher of junior high school.


However,I am interested in the teacher of elementary school as I like children.
Now,I take two courses;elementary school course and junior high school course.
So I am busy because there are a lot of things that I must learn.


In particular,I must study English most.
I can't read an English sentence quickly and speak English fluently.
It is also difficult for me to understand whole sentense quickly.
So I must study more than now.


Moreover,English will be needed in society in the future because it is thought that international society progresses.
Therefore,I think that studying English is very important for many people.


I like English and I want to learn many things that are concerned with English.
I want to learn other things too.


Thank you for reading!

My major is English education.
I want to be an English teacher at junior high school.


So far,I learn English grammar and phonetics.
English grammar is complicated unlike that I studied at high school.I'm not good at present perfect and past perfect.
Ebglish phonetics is very fun for me.I thought I could read English words by katakana,but I found it was wrong.English pronunciation differs from Japanese completely.How to open mouth and the position of tongue are very important!

First,I have to acquire knowledge about English.Then,I'm supposed to learn the way of teaching.
Now,concern about English education is increasing such as internationalization education.

I want to see various things from educational point of view.



Thank you for reading!

  Ladys and Gentlemea, Boys and Girl. I`m Makoto. Recentry I watched English class movie on the internet.

  My major is chemistry.



I studied chemistry at high school too. But what I learn at university is not advance of what I learned at high school. It is completely different from this. For example, at high school, I learn materials separateiy. However, I study how to be composed of materials.

I think that there are teaching in the chemistry. Take some example. it is uincertainty principle. It says that the act of observer affects the target.

Hokuto - my home town

 

 Hey, look at him! What an ugly creature ! Who is him !?

 His name is "Zuu-shii-hokkii". He's a new local character of Hokuto-shi. It's my home town. His motif is a sushi of Hokki (the kind of shellfish). Hokki is one of popular productions of Hokuto.
 

Can you guess what is that mountain on the depths in this picture?

 It's Mt.Hakodate! It's so famous as one of world best 3 night view. I took this picture at near my home. It shows that Hokuto is located next to Hakodate.

 

 This is a cement factory near to my home. It's so big! Only a part of it is on this picture. If you see this factory, you would be so suprised! It's one of biggest cement factory in Japan.

 

This is "a Trappist monastery".  The view with a row of poplar trees is so beautiful, don't you think? This monastery has a farm. The cookie made at the farm is so popular and so yummy! The cookie is called "Trappist cookie". You should try it someday!

My introduction, Hometown and Major

 Hi, I am Kanako Tachibana, and I would be glad to call my name friendly.
You might become aware of there are one more person in class at Fridays 2nd period comparing Wednesday.
It is me :)
Original English IIIB class to me is on Thursday 1st period, but I take Spanish class at that time.
Therefore I changed class.

I am from Sapporo city.
I think that most of you know the name because it is the most famous and the biggest city in Hokkaido.
Sapporo is located in west of Hokkaido and near from the sea.
Look at this map. ( the star shows the location of Sapporo)

Left picture shows the scenery of the center of Sapporo, right one shows around Susukino", which is famous as good drinking area in Japan.  Susukino is one of my favorite spot in Sapporo and I think this area is the best to feel urbanized atmosphere in my hometown.
































You may surprise, most of people in Sapporo uses subways compared to using bus in generally.
There are 3 lines all which go through the center of the city and from edge to edge of Sapporo.
Therefore we rarely worry about going far.
This is the map of subways.  You think its very useful, don't you?





















If you have a chance to come my hometown, I am sure you would not lost your way.
The map will tell you all...

... Did you get it?
The reason I told so is that street in Sapporo are laid out in grit pattern
In addition, the name of the streets also help your preventing lost your way, and its name will show the place where you are such as North 1-West 4 or South 4-West 2.
If you yet lost your way, please call me.



The season when there are the most travelers in Sapporo is winter.
You may have heard the name of "Sapporo snow festival".
Many people participate the snow carving competition and a lot of people around the world come and see those things.
At the same time, great and beautiful illuminations or snowboard competition.

 

Finally I introduce what I am studying.
Most of you might notice already, I major in humanities.
Especially now I am studying is contemporary international society.
The differences from education, as growing up the grade, our options what we want to study are expanding.
Since I was a high school student, my interest is almost about Africa.
That is why I want to be in Pf Philips's seminar no matter what.
After I graduate,  I want to be a member of JOCV and work at some African countries.
My dream is that relationship between Africa and Japan is more better and many Japanese interest in those area more.
For that reason, I want to improve my English skill, and I am needed to study more harder.



I would like to talk more with you.
Thank you.

My Major

My major is Japanese．In China there are so many people learning Japanese. According to a research of the Japan Foundation`s in 2006, China has the second highest number of Japanese-language students with approximately 830,000 . (“Japanese Foundation”,2)¹. As a Japanese learner I feel that just know Japanese it is hard to find a good job in China.

I studied Japanese for about 5years. I began with “あいうえお” at the university and then learned about Japanese grammar, then studied Japanese culture, literature and so on. When I became a graduate student, I learned something more professional. Such as the metalanguage, Japanese education and so on.

When the Japanese major`s students graduate, they can work at a Japan company, or become a translator, or a Japanese teacher.When I graduated from the university, half of my classmates went to study a graduate degree in Japan, and half of them work at a Japan company. And I chose to study a graduate degree at the same university. My dream is become a Japanese teacher in China.
