“I had a great experience during my two weeks at Jals. The classes were well organized and the teachers, Hiroko and Kaori, were very friendly and easy to understand with high quality lessons.
I especially liked the fact that I was able to study with friends from different countries and have cultural exchanges. I looked forward to every class and had a great time. The after-class activities were an added bonus. I would definitely recommend Jals to anyone who wants to learn Japanese!”
