Hi,Nice to meet you. I am the person in charge of our organization. Since I was in elementary school, I have studied English on my own and loved foreign music and movies. At the time, in Japan, compulsory foreign language (English) education began in junior high school. So, at the time, I might have learned it a little early. (Currently, from April 2020, English learning in compulsory education in Japan starting from the third grade of elementary school). Now, in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, we decided to establish this organization, and after a year of preparation, we started it in 2022. My main field of work has been Tokyo for a long time. But we started our organization in Fukaya City. This is because I wanted to engage in social welfare activities that would contribute to the present and future of the Japan we live in, and especially to the local community in which I live. This is because I wanted to utilize my love of languages to engage in activities where citizens could gather, learn from each other, interact, and do something positive in their daily and social lives. By the way, there is a term called "にほんご の かべ" , わかりますか? This is generally used to mean that "not knowing Japanese separates Japanese people from foreigners." Personally, I think of it as "The mountain of Japanese." When learning a language that is not your mother tongue, it is like walking up a mountain. It is. You can't reach the top all at once, so the image is to climb up little by little. And as you begin to "understand" it little by little, it will become fun and interesting in itself! However, learning a language that is not your mother tongue requires patience and persistence along the way. Therefore, it would be great if you could study with someone rather than learning alone! Furthermore, if it is a native (Japanese)...! ! Our organization believes that it is not just a learning experience, but a meaningful experience. In the spirit of "いちごいちえ", we will open a circle of learning and communication. いっしょ に、がんばりましょう! ⚫︎Qualifications: Japanese Language Teaching Proficiency Test ⚫︎What are some fond memories in Fukaya Hanazono? : When I was in elementary school, I won the Nippon Television Award for calligraphy. When I was in elementary and junior high school, I was the student council vice president. From the age of three, I was taking lessons in piano, swimming, abacus, kendo, and other subjects, and there wasn't much rest.
