Testimonials

I wanted to learn Japanese when I heard it in Anime.

我在尼泊爾的時候常常看動漫。我覺得日文配音非常好聽,所以決定自己學日文。
在學習日語的過程中,有一件事讓我印象深刻,那就是敬語的使用。我在尼泊爾語中不太使用敬語,所以嘗試用日語溝通對我來說是一次有趣的經驗。
對我來說,日文最難的部分是漢字。尼泊爾不使用漢字,所以背誦和書寫漢字對我來說相當有挑戰性。不過,老師們都很友善,樂於助人。
剛來日本的時候,我日文不太好,很難理解別人說的話。不過現在,我已經對自己的日文能力有了足夠的自信,可以和陌生人交流了!
我想繼續深造,最終在酒店工作,並最終成為日本一流的酒店經營者。

SHERPA WANGCHHU GYALBU

My reason for choosing Human Academy was because I wanted to focus on speaking, rather than reading and writing.

我開始和一位對日語有興趣的大學朋友一起學習日語。
修曼學院對會話的重視對我來說非常理想,因為我發現說日語比閱讀或寫作困難得多。
我的日語老師確實幫助我理解了很多關於日語的不同知識,他們對我很友善、很有禮貌,我認為這有助於快速提高我的日語技能。
剛來日本的時候,一切都很艱難。不過現在,我可以自己處理一些簡單的事務了。多虧了修曼學院,以及我努力準備考試,我才得以考上這裡的研究所。
畢業後我想回國當歷史老師。
