Ryan Jones, a student at Grossmont, helped set up the Japan Club event. The goal of this event was to get more students introduced to the club as well as spark interest in it. According to Ryan “Japan club met three times a week during the semester. I would bring in simple lesson plans where people would get experience speaking with one another, & use tools from JapanesePod101.com.“ Japan club also watches a few movies Ryan explained, so that students could better understand the culture and have a chance to really hear how the language is.
Although many clubs at Grossmont have concluded events for the year it’s never too late to start thinking about new opportunities and which groups to join in the fall semester.
