Have you ever encountered a “language barrier” while traveling in a foreign country?

Isn’t it frustrating when you find it difficult to communicate with people around you?  You often feel left out and isolated.

Over 25 years ago, in an effort to remove this barrier and relieve the sense of isolation,

some members of MIA started giving informal Japanese lessons to foreigners. Five year later, in 1987 the lessons were officially upgraded to a formalized Japanese Language Class that is still offered once a week.
And let's learn Japanese together with other activities such as Cross Culture Program, Friendship Gathering, Introduction of Japanese Cultures and Ikebana Class.

　”言葉の壁”とよく言われますが、外国に行ってその国の言葉がわからないほどつらい思いをすることはありません。それが原因で疎外感をもって孤立してしまうことがおおいと聞いています。
