Studying Portuguese is Fun at Kanda!
In Kanda University, we have a lot of majors. In those, we have Portuguese major, the number of students is not big, but they are studying hard and have very nice friendship beyond years.
On last Thursday I visited to the meeting of studying Portuguese, which is held by Portuguese department. Going to the library, and I proceeded to the room. At 5:00 p.m., there were already students, and as one student called other students to come to a desk. It starts!!! In this lesson, I could hear speaking in Portuguese.
According to Syogo Takeshita, is the reader and the teacher of this meeting, said “Actually this meeting was held for students who couldn’t understand well in their classes at first.
However, now students who have strong motivation came!! It’s free to come or not, sometime the number of students may be 10 or more. Once a student whose major is Spanish has come!! So, everyone who is interested in Portuguese can participate!!
I usually chose newspapers and some magazines as studying materials, they help us to have interest in something in Brazil, and I usually chose a cooking book!!”
The day they are 6 people, but they are different years and an exchange student also presented. The exchange student is from Brazil and has just started to come to Kanda since last September. I heard that it is very reasonable for him, because he can teach Portuguese to Japanese students, and he can learn Japanese too!!
After finished interview, I felt good because I could see that they had own studying style and it has many good points. I could see that they are very good friends. I learned it is very important to have nice seniors and juniors in study!!
