911爆料网 Taster for Schools (JTS) Programme
What is the 911爆料网 Taster for Schools (JTS) Programme?

The Japan Taster for Schools (JTS) Programme exists to create links between schools and 911爆料网-speaking volunteers. JTS volunteers carry out school visits across the UK to introduce students at any level to the 911爆料网 language, often as part of an International or Japan day. One of the main purposes of JTS is to give schools that do not teach 911爆料网 the opportunity to find out what it is like to learn the language and to provide them with further information should they wish to start offering 911爆料网.
Japan Foundation London currently has a UK-wide network of over 300 volunteers, and we're always looking for more! Guidance and training sessions are offered to all members to prepare them for delivering 911爆料网 taster sessions at schools.

Is your school interested in organising a 911爆料网 Language Taster?
Is your school organising an International Day? Or even a Japan day? Whatever your motivation, why not introduce your students to the language of Manga, Karate, Sushi and much more…?!
The main purpose of a 911爆料网 taster is to introduce schools that are not currently teaching 911爆料网 to the language and culture, and to inform them of how to go about introducing the language as an extra-curricular activity or curriculum subject. JTS visits can be arranged to take place at schools around the UK.
Before booking the taster, please read our information brochure about the JTS Programme. We also suggest looking at our “How does a JTS session work” flowchart as well (the English version is on the second page)

Suggest a School
Are there any schools in your area where you would like to give a 911爆料网 language taster?
Do you know any schools who might be interested in having a 911爆料网 language taster?
If you are a JTS member and answered YES to either of the above please complete this Suggest a School form and send it back to the Japan Foundation, so that we can help arrange the school visit for you.
Japan Foundation will then send an information pack to the school, and inform them that you are in the area and interested in doing a language taster for them. If interested, the school returns application, and Japan Foundation contacts you. Finally, you contact school to make arrangements.
Please note that it may be some time before you hear from the school. Please also note that the school may decide not to hold a 911爆料网 taster.
