Assessment of a supplementary teaching material in Second year Japanese class of Yangon University of Foreign Languages Khine Khine Zin Studying a foreign language is not just learning a language. Focusing on cultural, daily living norms and social in the country may improve learners' interest and willingness to learn. Therefore, at Yangon University of Foreign Languages, a Japanese language class on “Day-to-Day Japanese living situations” was started in 2007. This subject was intended for second-year undergraduate students and were taught by a teacher-centered method. There are two major difficulties for the students. First, the textbooks used in the class do not perfectly match with the student's level. Second, students did not raise their opinion and were less actively participating for the discussion during the class. Therefore, we created supplementary teaching materials that seemed appropriate for student's group work also verified the effects. As a result, more than 90% of the students were able to criticize more about life between Japan and Myanmar, hence proven the effectiveness. 2020-12-01 https://meral.edu.mm/records/6687
