◆Shanghai Ganquan Foreign Language Middle School

Shanghai Ganquan Foreign Language Middle School (equivalent to a Japanese high school), established in 1952, has been designated as an educational leading school by the City of Shanghai. It has started Japanese language education since 1972 and now more than 700 students are studying Japanese in this school with integrated school system for 7 years. This school puts emphasis on not only Japanese but also English as well as math and science education and as a result it has sent out alumni to prestigious universities in and outside of China. President Odanaka received warm welcome by teachers including Vice Presidents Ms Gu Jin and Ms Chen Nini who explained their excellent Japanese education. It was easy for Vice President Odanaka to find how high school students actually learn Japanese in China. They discussed how they should strengthen their relations in the future.

Visit to Shanghai this time would not have been successful without corporation of OCU Global Exchange Advisors Mr Zhang Jin and Ms Zhao Yanli as well as Professor Ma Lizhong of Shanghai University. Shanghai is a sister city of Osaka, thus we will keep active exchanges with universities there.
