Именитая российская фигуристка Евгения Медведева приняла участие в 32Nd Online Global Citizenship Seminar

20 января Университет Токай провел онлайн семинар (A True Picture of Evgenia Medvedeva: Online Tea & Talk from Russia), в котором приняла участие именитая российская фигуристка Евгения Медведева.
Проект «Global Citizenship Seminar» реализуется в рамках стратегии интернационализации Университета. Спикерами становятся профессионалы из различных областей, преподаватели и студенты, отмеченные за успехи. Отличительной особенностью мероприятия является его проведение на английском языке.
На протяжении более сорока лет Университет Токай развивает сотрудничество с Россией, а также в последние годы активно работает над разработкой и реализацией новых форм академического сотрудничества между Японией и Россией, в рамках проекта повышения потенциала и международной интеграции японских вузов под руководством Министерством образования, культуры, спорта, науки и технологий Японии.
В этот раз гостем семинара стала двухкратная вице-чемпионка Олимпийский игр 2018 года в Пхёнчхане (в одиночном катании и командных соревнованиях), Евгения Медведева, которая также известна своей любовью к Стране Восходящего Солнца. Евгения ответила на серию вопросов, которые позволили узнать много интересных фактов о почитаемой многими спортсменке мирового класса. В семинаре приняли участие 500 человек.
Семинар открыл проректор Наото Ёсикава, который в своем приветственном слове рассказал немного об истории сотрудничества Университета Токай с Россией. Далее Евгения ответила на вопросы о том, как она пришла в фигурное катание, о своей учебе в университете, о впечатлениях об Японии до и после первого посещения для участия в соревнованиях. А также рассказала о том, как выстроена система получения среднего образования для спортсменов, выбравших путь к профессиональной карьере, чтобы они могли не только тренироваться и добиваться успехов в спорте, но и учится в школе. В процессе разговора были затронуты темы качества жизни и социально-культурные особенности в разных странах. Слушатели узнали, что фигурное катание в России является популярным видом спорта и государство поддерживает его развитие на разных уровнях. Особенно запоминающимся оказался ответ Евгении Медведевой на вопрос о том, что для нее «родной дом». По мнению Евгении, дом - место, где тебя любят, и где живут люди, которых любишь ты. Это не просто место, где ты родился и вырос, ведь, само слово «место» не так важно в данном контексте. Также Евгения рассказала о своих тренировках, жизни в Канаде и о своих любимых японских анимэ.
Во время семинара было получено множество вопросов от слушателей, некоторые из которых были заданы Евгении. Например, школьники, которые занимаются фигурным катанием в Японии, задали вопросы о том, как Евгения запоминает хореографию для своих программ, а также о страхе перед прыжками и как с ним справляться. В конце беседы ректор Университета Токай, Киёси Ямада, тоже задал свой вопрос Евгении. Вопрос касался использования английского языка при общении с фигуристами из Японии. Евгения ответила, что в общении с Сатоко Мияхара и Юдзуру Ханю она использует английский язык, которым ребята прекрасно владеют. Ректор Ямада поблагодарил Евгению за участие в проекте и пожелал удачи в профессиональной сфере. И также, предложил изучать японский язык в Университете Токай, так как Евгения говорила ранее, что хотела бы его выучить.

Figure Skater Evgenia Medvedeva Speaks at 32nd Online Global Citizenship Seminar

https://www.u-tokai.ac.jp/international/news/detail/32online_global_citizenship_seminar.html

On January 20, Tokai University held its 32nd Online Global Citizenship Seminar, “A True Picture of Evgenia Medvedeva: Online Tea & Talk from Russia.” This seminar series, organized by the Head Office of International Affairs, features lectures on various topics given completely in English by outside guests or Tokai students, faculty, and staff with the goal of promoting the campus’ internationalization. For this seminar, Tokai invited figure skater Ms. Evgenia Medvedeva, a silver medalist in both individual and team events at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics whose love of Japan is well-known. This event was a representation of more than four decades of exchange between Tokai and Russia as well as Tokai’s recent achievement of being selected for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s Inter-University Exchange Project (Russia). Around 500 people watched the event. Ms. Medvedeva participated virtually from Russia, answering questions about her experiences as a world-class athlete.

Tokai University Vice Chancellor Naoto Yoshikawa opened the event with a greeting and an overview of the historical ties between Tokai and Russia. The moderator then began asking Ms. Medvedeva various questions on topics such as why she began figure skating, university life in Russia, her impressions of Japan when she visited for tournaments, how countries should support athletes, and improving quality of life (a key driver of Tokai’s educational research).
Ms. Medvedeva gave thorough answers to each question, commenting, “My hometown is not just the place where I grew up – wherever I go, if there is a person I love there, that is a place I can call my home. From the point of view of a figure skater, Russia as a country provides a great deal of support, and the type of support changes depending on your level from beginner through advanced, so you can say that the quality of life is high.” She also described her life in Canada, where she practices, and her love of Japanese anime.

Ms. Medvedeva also happily answered questions from elementary school students in the audience, such as “How do you learn choreography?” and “Is there a way to stop being afraid of jumps?” At the end of the event, Tokai University Chancellor Kiyoshi Yamada thanked Ms. Medvedeva and asked her, “When you communicate with Japanese skaters, do you speak in English?” Ms. Medvedeva replied, “Tomoko Miyahara and Yuzuru Hanyu are very good at English. I never have trouble communicating with them.” Yamada then told her, “If you ever want to study in Japan, please come to Tokai University. We wish you much success in the future.”
