Glasgow - Japanese learners study group

Let's study Japanese together! :)
Evidence shows that studying in a group not only improves learning & performance, but also supports mental health.

Who is this group intended for?

• adult Japanese learners who live in Glasgow
• learners who are looking for a study group
• learners who are looking for a supportive learning environment where they can build connections and share knowledge/resources
• learners who are committed to learning Japanese, and would like to find a community of like-minded people without having to book potentially expensive courses

What is the group goal?

• provide an environment where we can support each other's learning goals
• provide community for adult learners who are often stuck studying alone at home
• provide an opportunity for learners to find study buddies
• provide a more study-focused alternative to language exchange groups, as there are already several options for this (both in Glasgow & online)

Events
Once we have at least a small group of learners in the group, I will be looking to set up a weekly meetup up in Glasgow (likely at a library such as Hillhead), where we can study together for 2-3 hours (with potentially some time set aside before or after to socialise a bit). There will be no requirement to stay for the full duration of the session; you can arrive / leave as required. I will share learning resources, recommendations, and provide several Japanese books which can be used by anyone attending the session, but must be handed back at the end. We will follow a version of the Pomodoro study technique. Breaks can be used to socialise, grab a drink, etc.

As the group develops, we can also discuss the potential to arrange other events e.g. social catch ups, Japan-themed outings, etc.
