Students in the Department of Foreign Language’s Community Service Learning (CSL) program were asked to share their thoughts about the university. The third question presented to the students is:

“What did you learn during your first year at the university?”

Student responses are as follows:

 

What I learned during my first year was the joy of learning. I thought it would be a lot of fun to learn, not just English.

I learned that studying is not something that you are instructed to do, but something that you take the initiative to do. I also learned the importance of understanding different cultures because there are foreigners in the class as a matter of course.

(D.S. さん)

 

I have learned English.

(K.S. さん)

 

I learned English and multiculturalism.

(N.R. さん)

 

I learnt Japanese culture, Japanese language and especially I learned about the living style of Japanese people in my first year.

As a foreign student, it was very difficult for me to get along with the environment and the people. But because the people here are supportive, everything became simpler and easier. I got a chance to learn a lot of good things by coming here. I got a chance to learn about Japanese language, religion, culture, lifestyle and dress. I learned about Japanese lifestyle. I also found out why and how to save time and money.

During the first year at the university I got a chance to learn many new and good things. During my first year the first thing which I learned was the Japanese language. Secondly, I learned Japanese culture and manners. I also experienced a new type of education system from the Japanese teachers. Also, I learned English as well as Korean and many other good things which has brought a good impact in my life.

I learned in the first year about different cultures and living styles.

First of all, I would like to admit my genuine gratitude for Nagasaki Wesleyan University because the teacher, teaching materials, methodologies and infrastructure really made my first year of studying reliable. The guidance teachers and the extraordinary facilities of university really helped me learn easily even when the linguistic and cultural difference hit.

(S.K. さん)

 

I am a foreign student, so my first year in university was very busy. There are many Japanese classes and university classes, so I spent much time in class in first year.

(M.K. さん)

 

I am a student in the Department of Foreign Languages. During my first years at the university I learned Japanese and also learned Korean and Chinese language.

(R.M. さん)

 

I studied Japanese in my freshman year of college. It allows me to better communicate with the locals and learn the customs of Nagasaki.
