I got to know many wonderful staff at Seijo who care deeply for the students. When I first came to the school, it was difficult for me to communicate with teachers since my Japanese ability was limited. 1.5 years later, after taking Japanese class and having more conversation practice, I’m happy that I can talk with teachers about different topics such as things they like and places they want to travel to. Little by little, I picked up different bits of information about the teachers at this school, learning about their likes and dislikes, as well as their hobbies and talents. It was a great work environment to be in with amazing people. They have taught me so many things about Japan and Japanese culture. I will miss all of the staff and students when I’m back home. Thank you for being with me and making this a wonderful time in my life.

【英語科】Tina先生からのメッセージ（１）
更新日：2024年08月18日
JETプログラムで来日し、１年半成女で過ごしたTina先生が、７月末に帰国しました。
Tina先生のメッセージを３回にわけてご紹介します。
第１回目は成女生の印象についてです。
At Seijo, I met many different types of students with different English abilities. Many of the students pleasantly surprised me with how much English they know, for example, the students in the Eiken interview test preparation class. I noticed that all students are very hardworking people who study hard. I hope that they can treat themselves kindly and take many breaks even during busy times. The students also inspire me in different ways and teach me about different things. For example, recently, I learned about different Japanese music artists such as King Gnu, Creep Hype, and Shina Ringo from the second-year high school class. There’s another student who enjoys to sew. Since I like creative things, I’m happy that I can connect with them in these ways. I hope that they can continue to pursue things they’re interested in. I will think back on my time with them fondly.
