Vicky's impression of Term 1
My first impression about this school was good. At first, I was super nervous and scared because I didn't know anyone or how to communicate in Japanese, but everyone in my class was being super kind and friendly which helped me adjust more quickly.
The classes are hard to understand but people around me always come up and help which is super nice. Especially international class is super helpful for me. I get to talk to people in English which is really nice and relaxing. Also I get extra help in English so that I can understand.
From this first month at Seiritsu, I have learned that we have to use 敬語 (keigo) to older people and greet to the teachers in term of respect. School is stressful at the moment, but I hope I can adjust fully and learn new things.
We have soccer practices 6 times a week for about 3 hours. The playing style is a lot different from America so I need to get used to their playing style so I have some things to work on with team but still keep my strength with how I play and not change my playing style too much.
