"WorldClassroom brought a change to students in their future career"

Mr. Hideaki Chinen (English Teacher)
Yokatsu H.S. in Okinawa

Not only nurture students’ attitudes toward understanding different cultures but also I could bring up students’ motivation in learning English through international cultural exchange with Thailand. Since this online cultural exchange broadened those junior students’ horizons, there was a change in their career paths after graduation!

"Students found a value in communicating in their second language."

Ms. Nazan Nak (English Teacher)
Şehremini H.S. in Turkey

Students can use language in a real context, in a real-life setting. They earned confidence in speaking in English. With the program, they had a chance to practice English. Also, students are very much interested in learning about Japan. English is not a subject! Learning language is regarding finding value in communicating with the language.

It's really wonderful to watch students speaking English and exchanging ideas and culture. The cross-cultural experience is important since students may work with people who have different cultural backgrounds in the future.

It’s an interesting experience. Thanks for holding the activity. I had an unforgettable talk with my partners. Although we can’t talk to each other fluently, we knew what they were trying to convey. I thought we succeeded!
