The SECOND program was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Not only because I had a chance to enjoy many “firsts” with my friends, but also because I improved my communication abilities in Japanese and other areas. I learned how to analyze the data we collected in the research and how to draw out the most precise and valuable information from the data, both of which are very useful skills in university. I really appreciate that I could have this opportunity at the end of my first year.
