Things I have worked hard when I came to Japan

Due to visa problems, I came to Japan a month and a half later than other students in during the first semester. After coming to Japan, I had many problems. When I came to Japan for first time, my Japanese, especially my conversation skills, were not as good as my other classmates. Therefore, I decided to work hard to keep up with my classmates and my studies.
First, I study hard to be well-prepared for the next class. If I study in advance, I can understand the teacher's questions in class and answer them well. When I give a speech in class, I write a manuscript for the speech. Every time the teacher asked me to correct it, I fixed it and practiced many times. I presented it in class without looking at the manuscript. I would like to express my gratitude for my teacher’s support.
I also try to make new friends after class and talk with them in Japanese as much as possible. I use the grammar and words I have learned when I speak with them.
I am very happy that I was selected for the Naganuma Study Scholarship. I felt all the things I have worked on finally paid off. I will do my best not only in my Japanese studies but also in my life in Japan.
