On Wednesday, September 25th, 2024, the Debriefing Session of the Overseas English Program was held at the Hakusanroku Campus. Seven 2nd year students participated in the Overseas English Program (a short-term study abroad program) in Boston, Seattle, and Cambridge (UK) this summer. The objective of this program is to improve students' English communication skills through living and interacting in a different culture. While experiencing the local customs and lifestyle, students aimed to learn practical English and broaden their international perspectives.
During the Debriefing Session of the Overseas English Program, the students presented their travel destinations, English learning experiences, lessons, cultural exchanges, and personal growth. Their stories, which included solo travel adventures and challenges with local food, were shared enthusiastically as they showed photos taken during their time abroad to the teachers.
The students who participated in the Overseas English Program likely gained not only improved language skills but also invaluable experiences of personal growth through their exposure to local cultures.
