About us
*~ Welcome to MASAKA! Japanese & English Time ~*
Yes, it's true! We're another Japanese-English language exchange group. Whether you're a serious learner or just looking to mingle and make friends, you'll have a good time with us.
- THINGS WE DO -
⢠Weekly Language Exchange
Join us at our venue for a laid-back afternoon long conversations. When you first arrive, our awesome organizers will greet you and try to seat you at a table with a native speaker of the language you're learning. Every 40 minutes, the tables will be shuffled, giving you opportunities to talk to more people. We provide seating cards so you're guaranteed to always meet someone new!
At our event, we want everyone to have a chance to speak both English and Japanese. For 2 hours, we'll alternate between:
20 minutes English Time
20 minutes Japanese Time
It can be very difficult for beginners, we know! Don't be shy. Whatever your level, someone will be there to help you.
⢠Board Games Night
We get together to play board games every other Monday. It's another chance for you to practice your English and Japanese, or just chill with new friends in a different setting. Have a game you'd like to share? Bring it! We're always looking for people who can teach our group new games.
⢠Group Outings
From time to time, we'll organize group events outside of the weekly ones, giving you an opportunity to practice your language in a more casual setting. Cherry blossom viewings, a trip to the Toronto Islands, we'll do it all!
