Specifically, the history of the English course at Kobe Gakuin University's Faculty of Global Communication will be first introduced, followed by a detailed description of the old curriculum and the current curriculum. Then, as examples of practical teaching activities, we will describe how the educational activities have been conducted, including basic English language courses (esp. English reading comprehension, and English expression), pre-study abroad instruction and semester abroad programs, interpretation and translation method course, hospitality English course, seminar course, Model United Nations activities, airport and hotel internship programs, and so on. We will also touch on the direction we will take in the future. Finally, I would like to exchange opinions with the floor.
