Sakae: A Visit from Japan

Sakae, one of our past Japanese students returned to Ireland 4 years after she attended a course at Alpha.  She came to visit her host family, her teachers and the admin staff at Alpha.

She told us what she has been up to since she came to Alpha the first time:

Konnichiwa! My name is Sakae.
I lived in Dublin about 4 years ago and studied English in Alpha College of English Dublin for 9 months.
Today I am here to say Hello to my teachers in Alpha.

I will tell you a bit about what I have done since I left Dublin.
After going back to Tokyo, I have got a job for an automotive aftermarket company which provides automotive parts such as tires, audio and accessories. I am in charge of the American and European business division. I am the main contact for English relations between our foreign offices.

Thanks to all things that I have learned here in Alpha, I could get the job I wanted.  I also got a certification to teach Japanese for foreign people about 2 years ago.

I am so happy to be back here to see my teachers (they still remember me after 4 years!!) and my host family. I would like to thank you again for welcoming me. Thanks a million!!.

College News

Congratulations to Christian who ran the Dublin marathon yesterday morning in a time of 4 hours and 40 minutes.  By far the fittest student we have in the school at the moment.

Christian brought in his medal and running number to the school to show us this morning and we apologised for having his classroom upstairs.
