International Student Tutor System

Shimonoseki City University has established an international student tutor system to support the learning and life of new international students.
For new international students, an international student tutor is like a close friend or family who can consult first when it is painful or having trouble, and when you apply for procedures at city halls or contract for mobile phones, etc. It is also like a consultant.
