このユニークな経験を通じて、様々な客と話すチャンスが多かったので、コミュニケーションの能力が上達したと思う。たくらんけで誰も英語を話さないので、自らの日本語に頼るしかないのだ。その環境で、ヒアリングの能力を磨き、日本人の日常のことを少し学ぶことができた。それに、客の頼みを聞き、日本のマナーを練習した。

Through Takuranke, I improved my confidence which was the catalyst for me to improve my Japanese communication skills, and in general my interpersonal and connection skills. Due to the connections I made in Takuranke, and how closely intertwined these connections are with music, I believe that in the near future these connections will be able to support me in my aspirations of being a music researcher, and more within the music industry.
