Long Distance Call

On Friday 15 September, Nossal’s Year 10 Japanese class had the chance to conference call Chosei High School to get to know a few of their students. It was a unique experience, where we introduced ourselves through our names written on whiteboards. It felt like a game show. We asked questions in both Japanese and English to assist in improving our conversational skills, but overall it was exciting to see the interactions between Japanese high school students. Hopefully we’ll be able to do this again one day!

It was a little scary at first, but after exchanging some words, we both practised speaking our respective foreign languages and learned more about each other. In the end, it was a great experience that I wouldn’t mind having more often.
