Recently discovered your channel, and I’m so happy it’s a new video! I was sad after binging all your videos and realizing the last one was a year old

@YASMINE_BAM Ай бұрын

Finally, Jasmine, I was always thinking about you and I was replaying old videos. I miss you very much and your motivating videos. I am impatiently waiting for this video to be uploaded. 😭💞

I am not lying, I've been kind of frustrated in my japanese learning since I took the first JLPT exam (I passed lol). Your videos used to be my cozy backround as I practiced kanji so now 頑張らなきゃならない

I’m now preparing for my year abroad aaaa looking forward to more vids, but also best of luck with wrapping up fourth year if you’re still busy 💖

@Tamihsu Ай бұрын

very happy that you are making videos again! I really liked watching your study videos when I was preparing to come to Japan. I didn't have a positive experience coming as a Japanese student, I hardly trained in conversation...

I was a Waseda university student(graduated in 2014), so really felt nostalgic to see your video. Good luck for your university life in Japan!

@commentarytalk1446 Ай бұрын

Both your attitude and articulate ability make you a good fit as a student for Japan. It was interesting to hear your experience. It's a guess, in any case, I found your apps for learning from the video about your course you did some years ago to be one of the best resources for starting to learn Japanese I've come across, thank you very much for all the help provided.

only just so happen to check your account and welcome back!

@itsRebeccaRayne Ай бұрын

I’m the year behind you, I’m at Waseda now coming back to SOAS in September! I am very shy so found it very hard to develop my speaking skills at first but I’m definitely getting there now! I also don’t like going out or drinking so that’s not been an option for me haha. I found for me, going to idol events helped a lot, I made friends and learnt how to use language people actually use because it was connected to my hobbies! I also think it definitely helps when you live in an inner Tokyo area like I do, the city office in Shinjuku was more equipped to deal with foreigners than some others! I had to go through a couple of really difficult medical things and had a much better experience in Japan than in UK. Cheap, accessible and fast! I went to an English speaking female doctor, and she was so understanding and kind. I had to have an MRI done and they literally booked it next day and it’s so cheap with our insurance too. One very good point about Japan I think. Overall I really love it here and plan to return after I graduate! I don’t want to return to London at all but 😢

A beautiful, explanatory video about your trip in Japan. You motivate me, but I have a question. You studied for one year In Japan it was promised normally ?🎀👍
