Having spent two decades navigating the culture, language, and professional world of Japan firsthand, I understand exactly what it takes to succeed there. My goal is to share this deep knowledge with you, ensuring you are not only prepared for your Japanese language  exams but also for the reality of life in Japan. At Sakura, we don't just teach from a book; we guide you with honesty, expertise, and a commitment to making your Japanese dream a reality.
