Venue :  Abiko Civic Plaza, Meeting Room 2

Participants:  5 international students,   4 Russian class members  (Total 9)                   ( No. 24-9)

The second exchange meeting between students from the former Soviet Union who have been studying at a Japanese language school in Matsudo and members of the AIRA Russian language class was held, following the first meeting last month.

Five international students, including the students who participated in the first meeting, took part in the meeting, gave self-introductions, and exchanged views about their motivations for studying Japanese, their questions they had while living in Japan, and their future dreams.

The AIRA members could exchange various views with the students in Russian, which made the meeting fruitful for both sides and the two-and-a-half hours passed quickly. 

The international students said that they would like to attend another round of the meetings, if possible.
