Are you a non-native speaker of Japanese?

Can you help us for 30 minutes on May 23 (Wednesday) or May 24 (Thursday)?  

 

 

EASC is in need of non-native Japanese language learners who can serve as practice interviewees for the Japanese Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI) Workshop that we are hosting this May on the OSU campus.  Interviews only take 30 minutes and are a great practice for teachers and students at any level of Japanese. 

 

Details:

•Students studying Japanese are needed, usually in second, third and fourth (or above) year of study.  We especially need Novice and Intermediate level speakers.  Self-assessment information is available at the registration link or I can send by email.

•Interviews last about 30 minutes.  No preparation is needed. Each person needs only help with one interview.  

•The time and day of each practice interview is determined by language level.

•Parking token and $25 gift certificate provided.

•Interviewees are not graded, you are helping the trainees.

•Unofficial evaluation level can be given.  

 

Interview candidates are needed as follows:

•May 23 (Wednesday): Novice and Intermediate - Students in their second or third year of college language study.

•May 24 (Thursday): Intermediate, Advanced and Superior - Students in at least the fourth year of college study with overseas experience, graduate students, non-native speaking faculty or members of the community of a very high level of competence.
