Conversation Partner
Conversation Partner 
The purpose of Conversation Partner is to help international students improve their Japanese skills(especially in speaking) through daily conversations with the students of Keio once a week.
Reading a textbook is surely important. But don’t you want to make some close Japanese friends and know the “real” Japanese they are using everyday?
Those international students taking part in Conversation Partner are not only having fun but also doing well in class since they have more opportunities to talk with native speakers.
So why don’t you join us and make your life in Japan a truly fulfilling experience? We are all waiting for your participation!!
Application period : Mayl 13rd~29th
