German Tutorial Class with Students of Asahi Nihongo

First we're sorry for causing trouble to our students in German classes when some German teachers returned to their home country because of earthquake and tsunami concerns. So there was no choice but for us to cancel the German Tutorial class, though to our unexpected delight, some Ritter students asked to use a class room to study German by themselves on Fri. at 17:00 instead of Tutorial. After which, some students from Germany at Asahi Nihongo heard from their Japanese tandem partner, who is one of the self-study students, and told them that even though they cannot their teacher, they would like to help them study German. We're so impressed with this happening!

These are the photos of our self-study class and volunteer teachers, Sonya-san(left) and Ulrike-san(right). They've been studying Japanese with a very strong will to stay in Japan after the earthquake. We can lead a normal life and stay stay safe in Fukuoka, so they enjoy themselves here, and even went to the beach last weekend to play volleyball. We heard they said they want to help out because of the situation now and they are willing to participate in the self-study class again. In addition, other students have also offered their help. Thank you everyone!
