3 Highlights of Ohanasi Kagawa Events
A Conversation-Friendly Environment
At Ohanasi Kagawa events, we constantly create and refine an environment where both Japanese learners and English learners can feel safe and comfortable speaking.
Specifically, our one-on-one conversation style, combined with switching languages every 15 minutes, allows both sides to enjoy practicing their target language smoothly.
In addition, instead of using Zoom, which is mainly designed for business meetings, we use a platform called Remo to provide an atmosphere that feels much closer to a real-life event.
Participants from Diverse Countries
At Ohanasi Kagawa, more than 50 countries have been represented by participants who joined our events.
By gathering people from many different countries in the same space, you can discover a wide variety of cultures and perspectives.
Not only that, but you also get the chance to experience different regional dialects from across Japan, as well as diverse Japanese and English accents. This helps you develop practical speaking, listening, and overall communication skills.
SAFETY – A Secure and Trustworthy Environment
At Ohanasi Kagawa, we place the highest importance on ensuring the safety of our events.
Today, there are many types of international exchange opportunities, such as events, apps, and bars. But if your own child said they wanted to join, would you truly feel safe enough to say, “Yes, you can go”?
At Ohanasi Kagawa, we work hard to create an environment where even students can confidently connect with Japanese people in both Japanese and English.
We do this through careful participant management, active staff monitoring, clear rules, and proper handling of participants who do not follow those rules.
