What Past Participants Say
I am an exchange student from Aoyama Gakuin University, I am having a very good experience in Malaysia. The students at UTAR were very kind and welcomed us warmly. They are proud of their culture and traditions and taught us a lot about Malaysia. Their attitude made me realize once again how wonderful it is to have cross-cultural exchange. Malaysia is a multi-ethnic country where people from different backgrounds coexist and respect each other. I am delighted to be able to study in such an environment.
Emily Edefors Aoyama Gakuin University, Japan
During the ten days of fieldwork in Malaysia, I visited many places and talked with many people, and I was able to learn a lot about Malaysia. I understood that multicultural coexistence is not only about talking, hanging out together, and going to the same school, but also respecting each other regardless of race or religion. UTAR students, staff, and all Malaysian people were very warm and helpful. I was very glad that there were many people who like Japan. I will never forget these awesome memories in Malaysia. Thank you for such a lovely experience.
Yuma Suita Kwansei Gakuin University, Japan
I had always intended to undertake a study tour and though I’m in my 50s now, it is better late than never. Hence, I decided to pursue my goal at UTAR as a result. The instruction in English class is engaging and stimulating. Over the 19 days, I learned the four core language learning abilities: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Students were guided by Teacher Rekha to talk about social issues by reporting news, to portray their future aspirations by creating vision boards, and to master simple and compound phrases by writing a tale. Ipoh's historical museum helped me to comprehend Malaysia's history of Chinese migrants better. Additionally, snorkeling at Pangkor Island broadened my perspective on life.
Chiu Yueh Ching Deh Yu College of Nursing and Health, ROC
This was my first time in Malaysia, and although I felt anxious at first, the support from the helpers, teachers, and my fellow participants made every day enjoyable. I gained a lot from this experience, and even though it was only two weeks, each day was fun, and I felt that I was living a very fulfilling life. Thank you to everyone who was involved with us.
