Reviews by former students who attended a course in Fukuoka
In my opinion, teachers were very kind and high qualified. It was a pleasure for me to communicate with them. Also, students were very outgoing. It was really interesting to connect with people from other countries and learn something new about new different cultures.

The relation with the teachers, though it is expected if we take into account the price of the course.
Not everything is perfect. Some things in the organisation are hard to understand. It is a school that accepts young students so some teachers should improve their methodology. But the teachers are eager to help.

I really enjoyed the lessons. They were really fun and engaging and the teachers were extremely helpful and friendly.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time studying in Fukuoka. GenkiJACS helped me find great accomodation and my Japanese improved despite just being there for 3 short weeks. I can definitely say that I am more confident with Japanese conversation due to the ample practice that I had in the classes there.

The class community was great. I didn't like the learning speed because we did too much grammar and too little conversation.The teachers should explain the grammar in English. In total it was not enough time and the pressure was too high.
The teachers should adapt better to the class level. It would be nice learning easy phrases for daily use instead of focussing on grammar. Too specialized, not enough conversation course.

It's like a second house where you come and learn so much. The teachers are very good and also very friendly.
I had such an amazing time here. The teachers, the other students and the people from Fukuoka made that possible. I met a lot of people from all over the world and a lot of Japanese people. I will definitely comeback soon, because I liked it so much and I want to speak Japanese even better.

The teachers' energy! They were simply amazing, very nice and polite :).
I also loved the culture classes and how easy it was to make friends and such!
It was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced! A lovely school with amazing teachers and Mai-san that helped me a lot! I'm in a loss for words so the easiest way to explain my visit is that it was simply amazing (and for the younger generation: Epic and awesome!).
Loved it!

The staff is very friendly and helpful. They'll help you with anything and go out of their way to do so. Also, you get a free personal cup while you're there. You have a selection of beverages, microwave, DVD/Manga/bookselection you can rent or even keep (the books) for free. Also, you get flash cards, so you can learn all the vocab and Kanji quickly and, if your a woman, you get a personal alarm (not that it's really necessary but it's definitely reassuring).
You can get a language exchange partner for free, if you ask at the school or mention it when you book the course. They'll find you a suitable Japanese exchange partner, so you really get to speak as much Japanese as possible.
