Activities
Japanese learners and native Japanese speakers will be allocated into small groups where they will enjoy a session of free topic speaking in Japanese. We aim to bridge and improve international culture exchange between the Japanese and the local community.
As regular activities, we hold our physical sessions at the Japanese association’s classrooms and our online sessions via ZOOM applicationIn addition to our regular activities, we also held some events like lunch gathering, drinking parties, walking, Karaoke, bowling and so on.

Introduction
In the Japanese speaking corner, we welcome anyone who wishes to hone and practice their Japanese speaking skills and at the same time getting to know more new people with the same interest! As there is no minimum fluency required, you can practice your Japanese speaking at your own pace.

But do be aware that we only provide the environment for you to practice your Japanese and we do not teach from beginner level as our Japanese volunteers are not certified teachers.

The only requirement you need to join us is that you need to have at least basic knowledge of Japanese like for example, self introduction, talking about hobbies, music, culture and sub culture and so on and so forth.

If you are keen to join us do drop us a mail!
