Miyake sensei's remarks:

皆さんは、子供の時から世の中に、携帯電話やパソコンがありましたか？
いつから持っていますか？
もし、なかったらどんな風に生活が変わると思いますか？
携帯電話やパソコンがなかった時代に戻ってみたいですか？
たくさん話しましょう。

Were there home computers and cell phones when you were a child?
When did you get your first one?
How do you think your life would change if you didn't have one?
Would you like to back to a time before computers and cell phones?

Someya sensei's remarks:

検定試験、ダンス、楽器、語学など、ずっと心の中で思ってはいるけれど、なかなか実現できていないことはありませんか？
みなさんの前で発表して、今年、新しいことにチャレンジしませんか？

Is there something you've always wanted to do but never quite got round to it, like taking a certificate exam, learning how to dance, playing a musical instrument or learning a language?
Why not present it in front everyone and set yourself a new challenge for this year?

The events are moderated by one of the JOI teachers and are a fun and relaxed way to enjoy learning Japanese online for free with other like-minded Japanese language learners.It's easy to attend one of these events.
