Japanese Scholarship Winner Returns From America


Our 2008 Japanese Scholarship winner - Kaumasa Honda - has just returned to Japan after his trip to America. He went with a group from his college for a 2-week intensive language workshop in New York, and was able to make inroads here that he will use in his upcoming studies. We were gratified to receive this letter from him recently.

Dear Hashi,org;

I hope is everything well with you.
I appreciate your support for 2008 Hofstra University Summer ESL Program by Tokyo Future University. It was my first trip abroad and I was a little nervous when I left Japan. The kind support and help enabled me to complete the two-week stay in America without any problems.
I have gained lots of knowledge and experience, which would have been unobtainable in Japan.
I will certainly apply what I have learned in America when I go to abroad again in the future, as well as put it to good use in my daily life.

I greatly appreciate the invaluable experience.

Sincerely, Kazumasa Honda
