3 Monkeys Radio #9-Between Classes

This is a recording I made of students during clean up time at the end of the day. I walked up and down the hallway and went into different classrooms. You can hear students talking, cleaning, writing on the board, and other things. It might sound like a bunch of noise, but it's part of my everyday life here. I especially love to hear the sound of my students laughing. I am happy to say they do a lot of that. (Be careful when listening with headphones because some parts get a little loud)

3 Monkeys Radio Podcast #7-Exchange Students

Two exchange students, Gokce and Steven, from Australia talk about their first week in Japan, homestay, and school. They will be giving their unique insight on what it's like to be a high school student in Japan. I hope to interview them every couple of weeks to see how they are doing and find out what they are experiencing.
