Japanese Language Student Comments

I have been learning Japanese in Osaka for one year and by far, the experience has been grateful.

I have had the opportunity of meeting other people from other countries and become friends.

Another thing I liked from this academy is the way they teach, being all in Japanese, what might result at the first time kind of hard, but actually it’s better, since the students can start getting used to listening Japanese and practice conversations.

So, as I said at the beginning, the fact of having been able to make some good friends and the way I have learned Japanese, makes it a really good choice when it comes to study Japanese in Osaka. Miguel, Spain
