After completing my undergraduate studies, I came to Japan hoping to undertake graduate study at a Japanese graduate school. One of my teachers
had recommended the IJLP at Takushoku University to me, and my decision to study at IJLP was also influenced by my strong interest in Japanese culture. The teachers at IJLP were extremely friendly and helpful, and very thorough in their approach to teaching. They also helped me a great deal when I was preparing my application documents for graduate school, by looking over the application materials for me to see if anything needed changing. Studying at IJLP also gave me the opportunity to make new friends among my fellow students. I am now looking forward to continuing my studies at graduate school in a Japanese university, and in the future I hope to work in the financial sector.

After graduating from university, I came to Japan because I wanted to develop a higher level of specialist expertise and undertake research on the
collaborative relationship between Japan and Vietnam. Aiming to improve my Japanese language skills and secure admission to a Japanese graduate school, I enrolled in the Intensive Japanese Language Program for Overseas Students (IJLP) at Takushoku University. The University is located close to Tokyo city center, and has a comprehensive range of facilities. I found that the teachers were very enthusiastic and dedicated, and were happy to help us with living-related problems. The fees at IJLP are also very reasonable compared to other schools, and the school arranged a variety of field trips, parties and other enjoyable activities for us. In the future, I hope to be able to work in a field connected to Vietnam-Japan relations.

After completing my undergraduate studies, I hoped to get a job in which I could use Japanese. However, because I was worried that my Japanese
language skills were not good enough, and because I had always wanted to study overseas, I decided to come and study in Japan. Based on recommendations from friends, and on my own perusal of the different schools' websites, I decided to enroll in the IJLP at Takushoku University. The deciding factor that led me to choose Takushoku University was that the University provides guidance to help students secure admission to graduate schools in Japan. When I was preparing to apply for entry to graduate school, the University staff listened attentively to my plans, and they were happy to offer advice. I also felt that the content of the teaching at IJLP was very comprehensive, and that the fees were very reasonable. In the future, I hope to be able to find work in the field of international cooperation, or become an interpreter.

After graduating from high school, I studied Japanese at a Japanese language school while working full-time. I had the opportunity to travel to Japan for
a year on a working holiday, and was able to visit various different parts of Japan during that time. I was enthralled by the beauty of Japan's natural scenery, and decided that I wanted to study in Japan. On the recommendation of one of the teachers at the Japanese language school that I was attending in Hong Kong, I decided to enroll in the IJLP at Takushoku University. I found that the teachers at IJLP were extremely enthusiastic; besides language instruction, they also taught us a lot about Japanese customs and social etiquette. They were also very helpful when I was trying to decide where to continue my studies.

After studying at another Japanese language school for one year, I enrolled in the IJLP at Takushoku University. Studying at the IJLP gave me the
opportunity to study not just Japanese, but also various other subjects, with English as one of the required subjects, and as a result I have been able to acquire a great deal of new knowledge. The teachers at IJLP speak many different languages, and if we had any questions they were always able to explain things to us quickly and precisely. I found that my Japanese listening and conversation skills improved dramatically. In the future, I hope to able to work either in the tourist sector, welcoming foreign tourists, or else as an international businessman in a multinational corporation.

I had been interested in Japanese culture ever since I was a child, and came to Japan because I wanted to study Japanese. I found that the teachers at IJLP were
very knowledgeable, and I was very grateful for the way they made an effort to match their teaching style to the needs of individual students, to make it easier for students to master the material. Studying at IJLP gave me the chance to make lots of new friends, and to learn more about other cultures. Takushoku University has first-rate teachers and an outstanding learning environment, and I hope to continue studying here. In the future, I plan to undertake graduate study, and eventually to set up my own international business enterprise.
