An experience that I've learned from

・Rie
     She talked about an experience that she has learned from, which is a short period training in Montana. As she spent time there, she found two things. First, American people act fast. For example, they sleep quickly and a lot because they think the action makes them good condition. Second, they express their own opinion quickly. She said that she wants to gain more various experience throughout she experienced.

     I think her experience is so valuable because all of the people are not always feel the differences between Japan and another country in English-speaking countries. In addition, she told us that American people have clear opinion and they voluntarily state their idea. I think we have to follow them to express our own feeling obviously.

・Kenya
     He spoke about his goals for the future. He said he wanted to be a scholar or a professor to study gender education because the system of Japan is not developed compared to any other country such as Europe. Besides, he thought about what distinction between men and women is due to his actual experience. He stated that Japan also have to conduct sex education.

     I also felt that we must take gender education more deeply because there are sex discrimination problems even now. When he showed us a drawing that two men are kissing, I actually surprised the situation in the picture. However, in Europe, it is not a strange thing. To solve gender problem, we have to learn more about this topic, I think.

・Mana
     She presented about her strength and weakness. Her strong point was that she can take an interest anything, but her weak point was that she cannot continue to do one thing for a long time. improving her weakness, she searched some solutions and show us them. They are four points and especially she told us that it is important to set small goals to achieve them.

     I felt that to set small goals is very significant for people to attain goals they have and to get over any difficulty because the more they have small goals, the more they can make an effort. Although to keep the four points she said may be a little difficult at first, but it is the first step to practice the actions.

・Arisa
     She presented about her strength and weakness. Although she had many good points such as her never give up mind, do her best, strong responsibility and so on, she was also worried about her weak points. Especially, she wanted to know about a way not to complain anything. To improve her weakness, she showed us three tips such as use a power of aroma.

     I was surprised to hear her weakness because I always think she is very powerful. I also have a concern that emotional up and down is big like her, but I always visualize another things that make me happy or exciting at that time because I can control my feeling by thinking enjoyable things.

・my presentation
    This time I made an speech about an experience I've learned from in my part-time job place. Compared to previous presentation, I could take eye contacts with people and memorize my script. However, I could not form my presentation contents compact using phrases easy to understand. It was because my English skills are still poor, so I could not express feelings that I thought on the spot in English. To improve my presentation, I should increase my vocabulary and express my ideas more clearly with words.
