I enjoy spending every day with friends who have the same goals.
Studying is hard, but I'm trying hard every day!
In the practical class, we worked in pairs to practice how to change diapers.
It's hard to keep up with the classes because I study with Japanese students,
but my classmates will explain anything I don't understand, and my teacher will follow up with me, so I don't have to worry.
The bento shop at school is cheap, so I buy my lunch or go to the convenience store.
I often eat lunch with my friends in the classroom.
There are also classes to learn about recreation at care facilities.
On this day, I learned ventriloquism. It was my first experience so I was excited.
I'm in the Soran dance club and am practicing Soran dance.
I will do my best to dance perfectly by the time I perform at the facility!

There were times when I felt anxious about studying abroad in Japan, but the teachers at my school are always kind and caring, so I'm enjoying every day.
The school has clean facilities and is close to the station, so I like the environment.
Another attractive feature is that there are many opportunities to interact with other departments and Japanese students.
In the future, I would like to work in nursing care in Japan.When I was a child, I lived with my grandfather, which sparked my desire to take care of the elderly.My current goal is to study Japanese well and become certified as a care worker.

I like the small class sizes so each student gets a lot of individualized support. The school has well-equipped facilities and comfortable surroundings. At Ahru, we have a habit of greeting each other, which always makes me feel comfortable. Learning specialized Japanese is difficult, but you will receive dedicated support from teachers. There are a lot of quizzes that help with memorizing the content so I believe that if I try my best I will be able to do it. I aim to become a care worker, able to use the greetings and etiquette I learned at Ahru in my work.
We will answer frequently asked questions from international students.
