Advisor & Tutor
Faculty members are assigned as "advisors" and Japanese students as "tutors" in each faculty to help international students. Advisors answer questions regarding classes and life in Japan, while tutors assist in both academic and personal matters so they can quickly adjust to the new environment in Japan.
The Aoyama Gakuin Chat Room (Aoyama Campus)
Chat Room, open every weekday, facilitates international exchange through communication in English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. In the English/Chinese/Korean sessions, international students serve as "Chat Leaders" who lead discussions to promote cultural exchange and at the same time help improve communication skills in a casual setting. The Japanese sessions, on the other hand, are designed for international students who want to learn about Japanese culture and improve their Japanese conversation skills.
