The SALC Lounge is one of the SALC regular events that is held every week. The purpose of the lounge is to create an informal and casual environment that is conducive to learning by practicing both Japanese and English. It is a wonderful platform to get to know people and is quite fun.
Throughout last semester, Fall 2020, we talked about a variety of topics ranging from pop-culture to New Years’ resolutions. As always, we had students who returned to the Lounge every week to practice speaking the language they were studying.
My favourite topic was movies because I got to share my recommendations with the participants, but I was also able to add several movies to my “must see list”. During one of the Lounges, we had a really nice time getting to know each other and even made plans to meet for coffee over the upcoming spring break!
I highly recommend students to come hangout at the Lounge and meet new people!
For Spring Semester 2021 the Lounge will be offered the following times in Quarter 1 and 2:
May 25 (Tues) -6th period
June 8th (Tues)- 6th period
June 17th (Thurs)- 6th period

2020年秋の前学期を通して、ポップカルチャーから新年の抱負まで、さまざまな話題で盛り上がりました。いつものように、毎週ラウンジに戻ってきて、自分が勉強している言語を話す練習をしている学生もいました。
私のお気に入りのトピックは映画でした。というのも、私のおすすめの映画を参加者の皆さんと共有できただけでなく、いくつかの映画を私の「必見リスト」に加えることができたからです。ラウンジでは、お互いに知り合うことができ、次の春休みにコーヒーを飲みに行く約束もしました。
学生の皆さんには、ぜひラウンジに遊びに来て、新しい人と出会うことをお勧めします。
