NIHONGO Partners, based in Japan, offer instruction in both Japanese language and culture

On 20th September 2023, our Japanese Language programme participants were thrilled to have the first group of NIHONGO Partners from Japan taught them the Japanese culture and language.

The NIHONGO Partners program under the Japan Foundation, dispatches Japanese citizens as NIHONGO Partners mainly to secondary schools in Asia in order to support the local Japanese-Language teachers and students. The assignment of NIHONGO Partners is not only to support the educational activities of the local Japanese-Language teachers but also to spread the charms of the Japanese language and cultures through their learning support and cultural activities in and outside the classroom. Simultaneously, it is an opportunity for NIHONGO Partners to learn about their assigned country through exchange with their students, teachers, and the people of the community. This program aims to deepen mutual understanding and expand exchanges between Japan and Asia.

We would like to thank the Embassy of Japan in Brunei Darussalam for making this possible and for their continuous support to L3C.
