The program&#8217;s workload is not too heavy, so I can balance my leadership studies with research activities. Plus, being in ToTAL simplifies the tuition fee exemption process I would otherwise go through every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attending ToTAL classes has broadened my perspective and social circle. The classes are fun and interactive. I learned various kinds of leadership skills from others through practice. I have a lot of support and freedom to practice my leadership skills (through being a TA or organizing events). Since I get to interact with people from different majors, my life isn&#8217;t just all about home and the lab. It&#8217;s been great to have less stress and more variety in my day-to-day activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And here&#8217;s a bonus benefit: the communication skills I&#8217;ve developed in ToTAL have helped me improve my interactions with my academic supervisor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-vk-blocks-spacer vk_spacer vk_spacer-type-margin-top\"><div class=\"vk_block-margin-md--margin-top\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-vk-blocks-spacer vk_spacer vk_spacer-type-margin-top\"><div class=\"vk_block-margin-md--margin-top\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>(Staff comment) Ms. Goo, who loves to travel, is very curious and enjoys listening to people&#8217;s stories with great interest. She immediately makes those around her feel cheerful. Her presence as a TA is very helpful to the lecturers because she makes the class more active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-vk-blocks-button vk_button vk_button-color-custom vk_button-align-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/discover.titech.ac.jp\/ambassador\/lynn\/\" class=\"vk_button_link btn has-background has-vk-color-primary-background-color btn-md\" role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><div class=\"vk_button_link_caption\"><span class=\"vk_button_link_txt\">Discover Tokyo Tech \/ Articles by Kang Wei<\/span><i class=\"fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square vk_button_link_after\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/div><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"veu_socialSet veu_socialSet-position-after veu_contentAddSection\"><script>window.twttr=(function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],t=window.twttr||{};if(d.getElementById(id))return t;js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);t._e=[];t.ready=function(f){t._e.push(f);};return t;}(document,\"script\",\"twitter-wjs\"));<\/script><ul><\/ul><\/div><!-- [ \/.socialSet ] -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The program&#8217;s workload is not too heavy, so I can balance my leadership studies with research activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":7500,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/?p=7499","vkexunit_cta_each_option":"","footnotes":"","schedule_terms":[]},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"event_status":[],"workshop_status":[],"workshop_category":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7503"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7503"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7503\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7532,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7503\/revisions\/7532"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7503"},{"taxonomy":"event_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_status?post=7503"},{"taxonomy":"workshop_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/workshop_status?post=7503"},{"taxonomy":"workshop_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.total.titech.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/workshop_category?post=7503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
