Mion Nakaima

 

I’m Mion Nakaima and from Okinawa, Japan. Okinawa is located at the south most past of Japan. But my university is Kyoto so I moved out there from my hometown before entered the university. In Japan I studied English and education. My favorite subject is English and Music. Also I’m interested in education. Kyoto Tachibana university which I go to can study deeply English and education. That’s why I could decide to leave my lovely hometown alone.

 I wanted a higher level of studying English and opportunity to talk with people from country differently. I thought EAP class is the best one for me, so I offered to take. There are great friends and sympathetic teacher. I’ll do my best in the 2 term with you.

 My hobby is playing the piano and watching baseball. When I was a primary school, I have learned the piano about 1 year. I wanted to learn it more long time, but I couldn’t do it because I also belong to the brass band primary school and junior high school. My brass band club had plan to practice everyday therefore I couldn’t get enough time to learn the piano. After I finished to go the piano school, I practiced by myself at home. I love playing the piano and could find do it in New Zealand recently. On the other hand, I think baseball is popular in Japan and many Japanese like playing or watching it. I got into it because of my cousin. Hence, I was the team assistant in high school and I’m still it now.

 I’ll stay here until December. I have to improve my English skills and want more friends. If you know some events or an interesting something, please let me know. I’m looking forward enjoying New Zealand life satisfyingly. Thank you!

      Hello my name is Athit Komin, my nickname is Alpha, people usually call me by my nickname. I lived in Bangkok which is the capital city of Thailand. Early this year, I just graduated from high school and I will be going to the university in Thailand this August. When talking about my favorite subject I like the most in high school would definitely be Physical Education because I do not have to think much during the class and I also get to play with my friends in this subject. During the study in Dunedin I am staying in Kenmure with Pooley’s family. I used to come to Dunedin for high school in Yr9 and Yr10, so I am very familiar with this place and the best part of Dunedin is the view of the city and  the beach. Coming back to Dunedin this time is to study an English course at the Otago University, the reason I choose this course is to improve my writing skills and also reading skills, which will help me in the future with my career. Furthermore, I am an easygoing and introverte

I have host mother, host father, host brother, host sister, a Japanese flatmate, a Chinese flatmate and two cats. Every day, I play with my host sister who is 5 years old. Actually, I was worried about every meals like if every dishes were not delicious… However, my host mother is good at cooking, so I eat tasty meals everyday! ☺︎ My favorite subject in high school was Music because I could play some musical instruments such as piano, mandolin, koto, guitar and so on. As I said, I like music. So, of course I like to listen to music. Also, I like to play musical instruments. I can play the flute and piano. I brought my flute to New Zealand and practice the flute sometimes. In addition, I love cats. When I was in Japan, I didn't have cats. But now I have two cats and they make me relaxed. No cats, No life. On the other hand, I don’t like to study. And I’m not good at keeping

      Hello, everyone. My name is Tsukino Watase. I am from Wakayama in Japan. My family members are mother, father, younger sister and one dog. And I live in Mosgiel with my host family who are host mother, father and one dog too now.       I think people who live in Dunedin is very friendly and kindly. People who do not know tell me about food taste like “This is so good” or “It’s nor good taste “ when I was shopping in supermarket with my host family. And I think they have a lot of talking when they have food with them family and friends comped with Japanese people.        My favorite time is eating, watching movies, listening to music, going for a walk and sleeping time. They make me happy and relax. However I often get too lazy if I have free time so I think it is not good point about me. On the other hand, I think I have skill of making happy myself so that is my good point.       I liked English class and art class when I was a high school student. I choose the EAP course becaus
