한국인 여러분~ 다들 아시죠? 곽튜브님 영상에서 유명해진 JALS! 이제부터 나고야 잘즈의 장점을 쭉 읊어볼게요~! 일단 가장 중요한 거, 선생님들이 다들 엄청 열정적으로 수업을 해주십니다!! 시험에 필요한 것부터 실제로 쓰이는 회화까지 다 알려주세요. 수업 끝나고 저희 숙제하는 동안 샘들은 옆에서 다음 수업 준비하느라 바쁘십니다ㅠ 열정 넘치심..! 또 다양한 국가의 사람이 많이 모여있어서 일본어 공부 뿐만 아니라 여러 문화를 교류할 수 있습니당(개인적으로 한국인들이 많이 없어서 너무 좋았어용, 강제로 한 달 동안 일본어랑 영어만 썼네여) 또 선생님뿐만 아니라 여러 친절하신 스탭분들이 일본에서 잘 적응할 수 있도록 24시간 모든 걸 다 도와주셔서 아무런 어려움 없이 잘 적응할 수 있구요, 여러 문화체험이 준비되어있어서 일본 문화를 쉽게 접할 수 있어요! 또 저녁시간에 영어공부하러 오는 일본인들이랑 쉽게 친구도 될 수 있고,, 엄청 이쁘게 꾸며진 라운지가 매일 열려있어서 수업 끝난 후에 공부, 일 등을 할 수 있다는 장점!! 무엇보다,, 사카에 중앙에 있어서 수업 끝나고 매일 친해진 반 친구들이랑 놀러다니다가 탕진잼 ^^ 이런저런 장점이 많은 나고야 잘즈로 놀러오세여!! 평생 잊지 못할 추억, 많은 친구들 만들고 갑니다아- 곧 엄청 좋은 건물로 이사갈 수도 있다는 소식을 끝으로 이만 줄일게용 ~~
Excelente experiencia aprendiendo japonés en Fukuoka
January 23, 2026by: Pablo Nicolas Blencio Barabino - SpainProgram: Short-term Japanese Courses & Cultural Activities in Fukuoka
Tuve una experiencia excelente en Fukuoka JALS, donde estudié japonés durante una semana. Los profesores fueron increíbles: siempre muy amables, con explicaciones claras y mucha paciencia. No tenían ningún problema en repetir o explicar de otra manera cuando era necesario, lo que hace que el aprendizaje sea mucho más cómodo y efectivo. Las aulas son pequeñas (en mi caso, éramos solo 6 alumnos), lo cual permite participar activamente, hablar mucho y poner en práctica el japonés aprendido en clase. Las clases se imparten completamente en japonés, pero incluso si tu nivel es bajo no hay ningún problema: los profesores saben hacerse entender perfectamente y adaptarse a cada alumno. Las clases son muy dinámicas y amenas, pasan volando. Además, la zona de coworking es muy útil para completar las tareas después de clase o repasar con tranquilidad. La ubicación es inmejorable: está en la estación de Hakata, el centro neurálgico de Fukuoka, desde donde puedes llegar fácilmente a cualquier parte de la ciudad. El personal en general es muy atento y las actividades que organizan después de clases están muy bien pensadas y son divertidas. Recomiendo Fukuoka JALS al 100% para cualquiera que quiera aprender japonés en un ambiente profesional, cercano y motivador.
Great time at JaLs!

I had a great time at JaLs! The teachers were super nice and always answered any questions I had. I especially liked how the class was centered around speaking because it translated to real life experiences in Japan. I felt that the pacing of the class was just right.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I used to work as a university instructor and in that position I read a lot of student essays. Among those essays, I always found the Japanese written by international students to be a little strange. Through proofreading and editing their essay, I personally discovered how deep and beautiful the Japanese language can be. That is what led me to think that I would like to learn more about the particulars of and teach the Japanese language.
