Educational Activities
For those who wish to enroll ISGS international course under my supervision:
My seminars are conducted in a bilingual style in Japanese and English. You may express your idea in English, but you are also requested to allow others to express their opinions in Japanese. You can start joining them without high-level Japanese, but you are expected to improve your skills for academic Japanese after some time. So far, all of my graduate students are bilingual or more, so that you are likely to be supported by others in the beginning.
