About Me -- Tamon Yamamoto

 My name is Tamon Yamamoto. Now I am 19 years old and will turn 20 in September. I live in Green Island with Riley and Dylan family. I have the impression that people in Dunedin are very kind and helpful. They smile at me when I walk into a store or when I ask them a question. My favorite subject was Japanese history. I chose this course because I want to improve my English in order to live abroad. In my free time, I often go out for dinner with my friends. It is a good time for me because I like to talk with people. I am not good at cleaning. My room is always dirty and my mother often gets angry with me. I clean only once a month when I feel good. My goal is to get a high score in TOEFL and IELTS when I come back to Japan. However, my listening and speaking skills are not good enough at the moment, so I will study harder. I am a member of the track and field club. This picture is me and my teammates.

    HI, Tamon. Your essay is interesting. I literally got surprised to hear that you clean your room once a month. You had better clean up your room once a week.

    I am glad that you have been finding Dunedin people kind & engaging. I am confident that, as you spend time here, your English listening & speaking skills will improve. Regarding Japanese history, what era are you particularly interested in?

About Me -- Yugo Konno

  My name is Yugo Konno.  I am from Tokyo and 20 years old now. I am living  with the White family in St. Clair. My impression of Dunedin is that there are many spectacular sceneries and kind people. My favorite subject in high school was world history. I took this course to improve my writing and listening English skills. I like cycling because it makes me so excited. What I dislike is having a part-time job because it’s so boring. My only one advantage is that once I start something, I never stop in the middle. One of my disadvantages is that when I am engaged in something, I am often unable to see anything else around me.

       Hello. My name is Usa Yamagami . Please call me Usa. I am 20 years old now. I live in Belleknowes , Dunedin with Barbara and Kelvin, and their son, Phoenix. As soon as I arrived, I thought it was very cold! And I envy New Zealanders because they have a lot of lands. I came from Osaka, Japan, and it is cramped with a lot of buildings. In fact, when I was in high school, Japanese was my favorite of all subjects. Because I like Japanese novels and comics. However, I wanted to try to read Japanese manga in English, so I decided to study English hard. My hobby is listening to music, watching a movie, reading books, and talking to people. Lately, I have been into ''Murder Mystery''. I have made many friends on Twitter who share the same interests. If you don't know about it, please check it out. I don’t like cooking and cleaning, so I think I can’t live alone! 😂   My good point is that I have self-paced, and I think my bad point is also self-paced. Finally, I ...

About me -- Shiho Matsuura

  Hello, class! I’m Shiho and from Japan. Also, I’m 19 years old and now live in Kaikorai with Hilary who is my host mother. I have impressed a nature, a view from my home and a wood stove. I like Dunedin because there’s no high buildings and Dunedin is a beautiful streetscape. Sometimes, I miss Japan and soaking in the bathwater. My favorite subject was Japanese because I like classic so in Japanese classes I could read Japanese classic literature. I chose this course because I want to improve my English enough to discuss difficult problems. Also, my hobby is dance and I love music. For example, I often listen to rhythm and blue and also my host mother likes music so we sometimes listen it together. I’m good at finding nice teas so If anyone want to know delicious teas, let me know! On the other hand, I’m hopeless at waking up early morning so 1 st class that start 9 am is a little hard for me. In conclusion, my goal is improving my English and become a person who understand ...
