Japanese Volunteers in International Program of FEB UNSOED As we have cooperation with some universities in Japan, it is important for international program students and staffs as well to learn Japanese language. On 19 th March 2015, two volunteers from Japan came to Faculty of Economics and Business UNSOED to voluntarily teach Japanese in International Program. They are Kei Kobayashi, a student from International Christian University, Tokyo and Hina Saito, a student from Dokkyo University, Saitama. It is Dejavato Foundation which is located in Semarang, Central Java that makes this program possible. Kei and Hina are living on home stay during their two weeks stay in Purwokerto. There are around hundred participants who join the Japanese course conducted by Kei and Hina. They are divided into three groups of student and two groups of staff. The participants really enjoy the course because they can learn Japanese directly from the native speakers. Besides teaching Japanese, Kei and Hina also engage some student club activities in FEB UNSOED to share their interest and hobbies each other. Enjoy your visit to Purwokerto girls… Sustained, Focused and Excellence 11 2
