Ai Jimbo from Japan (Class of 2010)


Before & After

Currently Ai Jimbo is a student at UC Davis.

How Southwestern Academy helped her achieve to where she is now:  "It was a good step that I studied in Southwestern Academy because it improved my English skills before entering junior college."

Her fondest memory: "It was very cool to share the culture. At Japanese Dinner night, I made the miso soup. Mr. Veronda really liked it and took the big pot of miso soup to his house that had about 1/5 of it left. (He asked me to give him the recipe of my miso soup twice. I totally forgot till graduation so I ended up not giving it to him haha) It's cool to know that Japanese Dashi (soup that comes from Konbu seaweed and dried tuna fish) could be accepted in America."
