The Eighth Annual New England High School and College Students Japanese Language Contest

May 5, 2018

The Eighth Annual New England High School and College Student Japanese Language Contest was held on April 7th, 2018. 63 essays and 26 speeches were submitted. Since all of them were great, it was extremely difficult to choose who would win. The following are the winners. We hope that those who participated in this contest keep on studying Japanese and become even more interested in Japan.

 

Thanks go to Kodansha USA, Shoyeido Incense Co., and the Boston Red Sox for their valued cooperation and contributions.
