Guidebook for International Students

・Tutors

The Organization for International Education and Research can refer international students wanting help learning Japanese to Japanese student volunteers who can offer support.

Remember: these are student volunteers, not Japanese language teachers. They are conversation partners with whom international students can practice the Japanese they learn in class. The volunteers can choose to help international students with their studies by correcting their reports or helping them practice reading from newspapers and textbooks. They can also become friends with international students and discuss a wide range of topics, including lifestyles, studies, and much more. Generally, one volunteer is assigned to each international student, and each pair will coordinate their schedules to meet once or twice a week on campus. (Each session should last from 1-1.5 hours.)
