's Letter

Dear Host Family, I really like K-pop. Thanks to K-pop, I can sing better. I wanted everyone to know about K-pop, so I studied and published K-pop in the presentation of my research paper in junior high school, so friends and people became interested in K-pop, and I like Mahjong. My family has been playing mahjong for a long time, and I was a little intimidated by it, so when I first saw it was interesting and I still play it. Recently, mahjong was popular at my school, but many friends didn’t know how to win, so I became a mahjong teacher and taught everyone Actually, I don’t have any dreams now, but I want to be someone who is respected and trusted by others. That’s because I think respect and trust are the most important things. I want to be the cool person no matter what job I get and what kind of person I get involved with. Respect and trust are important in life, work, and relationships, so I want to cherish respect and trust more than anyone else and become a person who has them more than anyone else. I want to be a person who can lead others through a lot of experiences. Through this program, I want to increase my knowledge of America while learning English. I want to live normally like an American student and enjoy the difference from Japan. I think there are times when I am confused about different cultures from Japan, but I want to actively work on the first experience and get used to it. Also, I have been watching American movies and dramas since I was little, and home parties and school life were sparkling, so I want to play sports, cook and sing with new friends. I’m looking forward to experiencing many new experiences with host families and new friends. Actually, I have several experiences of helping others. I always go to school by train and subway. One day, while I was on the train as usual, a woman next to me fell down, so I pressed the emergency stop button and called for help. Thank s so that, the woman was able to be rescued safely. I think it’s because I decided to press the emergency stop button. After all, I thought it was very important to act with the right knowledge. I want to continue to study a lot of new right knowledge and use right knowledge to help others. Sincerely, Yu
