Hide AdKohei found the classes to be of real interest as he has hopes to become an engineer in the future.
Mio speaks a little Japanese and so was able to brush up his language skills.
Josh said: “I’ve really enjoyed having Kohei around and have discovered lots about Japan that I did not know. I hope we can stay in touch in the future.”
