English Writing Seminar 8/1(Fri)～8/7(Thu)(木)
The one-hour cultural exchange program at the end of the day was very impressive. The Harvard students’ presentations about their best trips were wonderful. I hope I will be able to see many different places in the world in my life.
At first, I was very anxious about whether I could debate in English because I had no experience in debate even in Japanese. I was worried when I was not able to think of any good ideas or how to discuss issues. But through the suggestions of my student teachers, I was able to give a presentation with confidence on the final day. The Public Speaking course was very useful for me.
I had a rare opportunity of listening to a professional editor. The student teachers kindly taught me in a manner that was easy to follow. This program was a precious experience for me.
I enjoyed writing and creating stories together with other students. I was happy to have opportunities to speak in English because I seldom had such chances. I had a good time. I want to learn English more and would like to join SIJ again.
Out of the four workshops, I chose to join Drama Script. The Harvard student teachers taught me how gesturing and facial expressions can help me to communicate when I am having trouble making myself understood in a foreign language. In preparing for the final presentation on the last day, I learned how to organize a drama. The seven-day seminar was so fulfilling. It is an experience that I will treasure throughout my life. I would like to keep in touch with the Harvard student teachers and to improve my English.
