Why Japanese?

Inspiration

What inspired me to choose Japanese was that learning a new language seems like a great research experience. Realistically the other reason I chose Japanese was because of anime. The art style to the voice acting, it just made me super engrossed in Japanese culture. Japan looks and seems like a great place, which brought my curiosity to a higher level. For me, in the future, I’d love to see Japan and be able to live in a place like it! Being able to write and speak Hiragana would be easier for the citizens there.

Motivation

Majority of colleges have a minimum of 2 years of a different language to enter. For me to be motivated in Gr.9 Japanese, I will do my very best to pay attention, repeat after sensei, and to optimistically participate in class. If I am struggling, I won’t be repellant in asking for help, since help is the one step forward to success.

Goals

With this newly learnt language, I am hoping to be able to get into a good college and learn Japanese as a fun aspect of school requirements. As for a further future goal, I am hoping to visit Japan as the scenery and liveliness is something I truly want to experience
