Japanese students are amazingly shy and unwilling to speak to foreign students spontaneously. Most Japanese students believe that they are poor English speakers… But, they are interested in foreign students they hope to communicate with them at the bottom of their heart. So what I can say is, "do not hesitate to talk to them, you are welcomed”.

Japanese students are studying English very hard and they know basic grammar in English. But in particular listening and speaking are difficult for us. If American students speak slowly and clearly, they will improve communication with Japanese people.
