The university is known for its intensive English programmes and innovative teaching techniques, which focus on meaningful communication both in and out of the classroom. This paper compares in-class observations of Japanese students at Massey University with research on communication anxiety and the methodologies used to combat it. The paper suggests that communication anxiety for Japanese students can be situational rather than cultural and presents various classroom solutions, as employed during the Massey Communication and Culture Studies Programmes, to overcome this.}, title = {Overcoming Communication Anxiety:Observations of Japanese Students During Intensive Communication and Culture Studies Programmes in New Zealand}, year = {} }
