Lunchtime Skill-Up Seminar: Announcement of the 6th Research Presentation in English

**We are now accepting applications for attendees!**

We will be holding our 6th "Research Presentation in English" lunchtime skills-up seminar led by foreign instructors!
In the seminar, participants will present their research findings, and then receive questions and advice from foreign instructors.

Participants have given feedback such as, "I learned about the differences in expression between Japanese and English," "It was a practical and good practice before the actual presentation," and "I was asked the same questions during the actual presentation, which was helpful." For those considering presenting at an international conference, this will be an excellent rehearsal where you can receive appropriate guidance from native speakers before the real thing.

The presenters and dates have been decided, and we are now accepting applications for attendees.
Some of you have attended as audience members many times before. If you want to learn about English presentations or improve your English discussion skills through Q&A, please join us!

Past events

Up until now, these sessions have been held in a relaxed atmosphere with small groups of around five people interacting with each other. They have been well-received as meaningful practice sessions that closely resemble the actual performance, and some people have even participated multiple times as observers.
