Testimonial

I knew speaking would be more challenging than reading or writing Japanese. That's why I chose HAJL who puts focus on speaking practice.

A friend from university was interested in Japanese language, so we started learning Japanese together.
I thought that talking in Japanese is the hardest part, not reading or writing, so I chose HAJL since it has many conversation practice.
It was fun to improve my Japanese through the help of the teachers and my own efforts.
The teachers are kind and polite. They taught me a lot of things.
When I came to Japan, I encountered a lot of problems. But now I can do simple legal formalities. I also studied for the university entrance exam, and managed to get into graduate school.
After I finished graduate school, I want to go back to my country and become a history teacher.

The teachers are kind, they taught me not just for my Japanese study, but also a lot of things for daily life.

When I was a student, a senior I got along well with went to study in Japan, and I heard many things about Japan from him.
I also like Japanese movies, so I thought I should learn Japanese.
When watching movies, I watch them while understanding the meaning of the Japanese dialogues said by the actors.
Speaking in Japanese is difficult. When I came to Japan, I couldn't even read katakana, so I had a hard time ordering food from restaurants. But recently it became much easier.
The teachers are kind, they taught me not just for my Japanese study, but also a lot of things for daily life.
My dream now is to get along with everyone in the grad school's environmental control.

I was inspired by the lines and words the characters use in Anime, and decided to start learning Japanese.

I used to watch a lot of Japanese Anime back in Nepal. I was inspired by the lines and words the characters use, and decided to start learning Japanese.
The concept of Keigo (a former way of speaking) was very new and interesting for me. Since I do not adjust or control the way I speak based on whom I speak to in Nepali, I imagined that it would be fun to speak Keigo like the Japanese people do.
The hardest part of learning Japanese was Kanji. Since I came from a country that does not use Kanji, the process of learning how to write it was never easy, but the teachers were very nice and patient with me along the way.
When I first got to Japan, my Japanese was not so good that I did not make a lot of friends. Today, however, my Japanese improved and I can now even talk to strangers with confidence.
My first goal is to enroll in higher education, and then I will pursue my career in hotel industry to become one of the best concierges in Japan.

Although studying Kanji is difficult for me, studying grammar is a great fun.

I came to Japan after marrying a Japanese lady. I like Japanese foods and writers. I decided to study Japanese in Human Academy because I heard a good reputation from my Spanish friend who has taken 1 year studying in this school.
The school is located in a convenient place for commuting, and the class is also fun. Human Academy allows me to learn from various methods and give me new perspectives because they assign more than one teacher to a class. That is something I did not get when I was taking classes back in Spain from a single teacher. Although studying Kanji is difficult for me, studying grammar is a great fun. It’s difficult for anyone when they first start learning, but once you feel that you are making progress, it will soon become an excitement. Don’t give up, do your best!

The tutors in the Preparatory School department are very reliable. Each student will get their own tutor to consult.

The tutors arranged a mock test for EJU at a very early stage, when we still had a lot of time until the actual exam. Each time they would give me a detailed feedback after the result came out, point out and help me fix the questions I missed, and even advised me to make my own drill for reviewing purpose.
After the Covid-19 hit the world, the tutors worked hard to make it possible to take the exams online. The tutors in the Preparatory School department are very reliable. Each student will get their own tutor to consult with. They cheered me up and gave me specific advises based on where I stood at the time. It was very helpful that they taught me what I should work on at each phase of preparation, and in the meantime, showed me the path to take.
When it was finally the time to apply to my first-choice graduate school, my tutor made a list of possible questions I might get at the interview, and also helped me fill out the motivation letter. My tutor asked me a lot of questions for practice, all of which I wasn't ready to answer. Then they helped me develop the answers to any possible questions. I am very thankful to the tutors who stood by me patiently.
If you listen to your tutors advise, and follow as they say, you will be able to enroll in the school of your dreams. Also, keep in mind that the interview counts as much as your school grades in Japan. I wish all of you will be able to achieve your goals.

When I arrived at Japan, I was not sure how to prepare for the University entrance exams. As much as I wanted to get ready in short time, I was pretty much at lost. I was very lucky to get the opportunity to join one of the basic classes where they taught not only about how to gather information on Universities, but also how to write a research plan.
Also, a teacher from the course helped me find the right University that suits my desired research field. He offered me all the information I needed about the University, helped me plan the schedule for the exam, and gave me feedbacks on the research plan.
Last but not least, if you keep in close touch with your teacher, work hard on the assignments, and above all, keep faith, you will earn the results you want.
