Allowing the best contact with destination group which is targeting for, we should investigate in advance communication chanels in social media (which are the most popular or the the way to contact with destination group is the shortest).

Maybe, I do not have an online profile. it is difficult for me to answer because I don’t understand what an online profile mean a little bit. So, I will guess and try to write. My name is kaito seito. I am 20 years old. I was born and raised in Chiba prefecture. I graduated from high school in 2019 and currently I am commuting to university. I am currently studying English and French at university. However, I am not very good at either. So, I would be happy if you could give me some advice in English and French. Universities not only study but also have various circles. I belong to the futsal circle.  I have been playing baseball since I was elementary school student, but after I entered university, I wanted to try a different sport and started playing futsal, which is completely different from baseball. Futsal is a very difficult sport, but I like futsal very much. I want to try various thigs from now on. Thank you very much.

Maybe, I don’t have an online profile. It is difficult for me to answer and to think about online profile because I’ve never heard this word, online profile, and I don’t know it at all.Therefore, I’ll try to image if I want to see people who is studying Japanese now. Of course, I write my name, my native place, and the distinction sex. In the past, most people wrote my sex in some papers. However, recently, I think that it doesn’t become normal. There are many kinds of people in the world. Therefore, everyone doesn’t necessarily have to write your sex on the online profile or in some papers. I’ll go back to the subject of online profile. In addition to, I want to write my hobbies, culture that I like the best in Japan and in the world. In this way, I think someone is interested in me when you saw my online profile and the chance is increased to talk with me in Japanese. To thinking from my position, if I found someone who match me in the point of hobbies or something that you like, maybe I think I’ll try to talk this person. From these, I haven’t written online profile, but it is important for us to write and see your online profile.

In task 1 question 3 ,the answer is False 'why?

Hello Masas,

The answer is false because David held two posts in Krunch Ltd. From 2017 to the present he has worked as a Digital Marketing Manager, but before that he worked as a Digital Marketing Executive, starting in 2014. Thus, he joined Krunch Ltd. in 2014, not 2017.
