So today, I get to my review of the Japanese Language Immersion School I went to in Fukuoka; Genkijacs! Obviously things change, prices, teachers, methods, but as of 2015 when I finished my first run there, this is some of my thoughts and tips!
Teachers: Best part about this school, all of them that I had were outstanding. You know how everyone has that cool social studies teacher where they dress casually and play inappropriate videos that make the class laugh? That's every single teacher there. They love to teach, they love their students, their lively and funny and I couldn't be more pleased! 5/5
Staff: Pretty awesome, I was really bummed about that 2 week review thing, and if the school wasn't so expensive and my time so short that wouldn't really have mattered. They're all really nice, but because they costed me $600 for two weeks I didn't need, they get 2.5/5.
Location: It WAS located at Tenjin, which is really a cool little area; reminds me of downtown Denver. But they moved the week after I left to Hakata Eki which even though is less pretty, is closer to where I stay and my church, so that's a bonus for me! 4.5/5 before and 4/5 after the move.
Class: My class size was 2 people larger than they told us was the largest class you can have, so that kind of sucked. Plus there was a shortage of chairs. The rooms are tiny as to pack as many into the building as possible, and in some of them the air-con didn't work. Even still, the teachers cracked jokes about it, and it made it tolerable. 3/5
Course Content: They use the Genki Books, which is fine by me. They move at about a chapter a week, which at first glance seems slow but they POUND that knowledge into you. I left even after 2 weeks of actual new content to be about 50 lessons ahead with my previous method. All and all it's a tried and true method. Can't complain. 4/5
All and all I would go back, but I'd be sure to know EXACTLY where I was in the Genki books so I wouldn't have such a costly review. I'd give the total school a 3.5/5! Solid 70% guys!
