I came to Japan in April of 2018 and chose to live in the school dormitory (Nakamura Dorm).  My objective is to find employment with a Japanese company.  I was recommended this school by my teacher in Vietnam.

Yokohama is a quiet city but with all the conveniences you’d ever need.  Everybody in the dorm has been very kind.

I started studying Japanese as a hobby but now I am hoping to study management in a graduate program in Japan.  The reason I chose this school is because it’s the closest to the MM21 district.  I have visited Japan as a tourist before and immediately fell in love with the beauty of this area. 

The climate in Yokohama is moderate with plenty of fresh air; it’s a comfortable city. When there are no classes, I enjoy hanging out around the MM21 district and China Town with my friends.

My dorm is really conveniently located. It’s a 3 minutes walk from the nearest train station and has in its close vicinity convenience stores, restaurants, a greengrocer, and a post office (right next door!).

8:00 wakeup & have breakfast
8:50 walk to school
9:10~12:30 study Japanese at school
12:30~13:00 eat with friends
13:30~17:00 study materials on business management in the study room of the Yokohama City Central Library
17:30~20:00 get back to the dorm, prepare dinner, and eat while watching TV.
20:00~23:00 play games or listen to music or read. the most relaxing time of a day.
23:00~0:00 shower and go to bed

I stopped working part-time jobs after application/exam season began. I used to work 14:00-18:00 in a restaurant.

I love the harbor and I love China town!

My goal is to get into a graduate program so I chose this school when the agency told me this school has a graduate school preparation class. 

I did not know anything about Yokohama until I arrived here but it took me no time to fall in love with this city.  The environment is especially excellent.  You can almost see the harbor from Sakuragicho Station and I just love the vibe the place gives. I grew up in a town far from the ocean so I am very happy to be this close to the waterfront.  Yokohama has a China Town and I enjoy eating steamed buns and other good foods as I walk around that area.  Everyone at the dorm is kind and we all help each other out on a daily basis.  Since many of us come from different countries, we all try our best to communicate in Japanese; it’s a great way to practice our Japanese.
