Student Opportunities
No English Spoken Here
Every day from 5-6 PM Japanese House students completely immerse themselves in Japanese. English is only allowed when translating or clarification is needed. Guests with varying levels of fluency often come and join in.
Any person who wishes to improve their conversation skills or learn some basic Japanese is welcome to come to our suite during conversation hour. We welcome all students, regardless of language ability.
