Mio Tanaka from Japan shared with us her experience learning English in Ireland and a little bit about her dreams!
●Why I decided to Study abroad?
When I was in Japan, I worked at an Exhibition design company to support Japanese companies with export.
I travelled on business to a lot of countries.
Even so, My company didn’t speak English.
I’m also one of them. I used Google translation.
It’s good but I always felt stressed. Maybe my customer felt the same.
Then I noticed English was very important.
If I can speak English…That’s so Cool!!
And, probably I can get more money 🙂 haha
●How about study English?
I was a very lazy student in Japan.
Actually I didn’t graduated from high school, and my University course I needed draw.
My English was too…messy.
Now, I study English in SEDA,
It is fun but hard!
Luckily, SEDA has a lot of kind teachers, and friendly class mates.
I can keep studying English and have fun.
●Why I decided to come to Ireland?
Ireland is English-speaking country, less Japanese people, with comparative peace.
If I go to another country where there lives Japanese people, I won’t study English. Because I’m lazy!
Actually, some people said that this country is boring but I think Ireland suits me.
I can go to a big park, and see beautiful evening sun only few minutes walk.
Ireland is a cute country …except for the weather!
●About my dreams
First, I want to be a picture book writer.
Picture book is art that babies see first.
My favourite picture book is”Miffy”.
Her face is simple and that it told me how to imagine.
(like a john Lennon’s song)
If I can speak English…If I can go to another country…
It is continuing now and made my life.
I want to make some picture book to make people happy.
Second, I want to speak English very well.
Third, All people will speak Japanese in the world.
I know the third dream is impossible!
So I need to study English more!
