September 21, 2016
On September 14, 2016, Setsunan University students had a privilege to experience rare joint workshops on English phonetics by world famous scholars, Michael Ashby sensei (University College of London, UK) and Patricia Ashby sensei (University of estminster, UK). Participants learned the importance of ear-training & mouth-training, that of mastering "schwa", rhythm, and how vital information the intonation carries, and so on. The three-hour seminar inspired not only English major students, but also international students who study Japanese as a foreign language, and experienced language teachers.
