- ○ Do you have anything you would like to say to the students of APU?

Hello everyone. My name is Toshie Suzuki, and I graduated from APS in 2009.
Your time as a student at APU is a valuable period full of opportunities to take on challenges and gain new experiences. When I was a student, I took part in competitions, engaged in performance activities, and even started a Tsugaru shamisen class. I faced many failures along the way, but I truly believe that each challenge leads to the next step.
From my APU student days to the present, I have been supported by many wonderful seniors. I hope the beautiful cycle of "on-okuri" continues. I also hope that the next generation will take on new challenges, create their own paths, and succeed in their fields.
