Location: Meiji Academy Fukuoka is located in the historic and culturally rich city of Fukuoka, Japan. The school is located on the outskirts of the city centre in the 5 Chome Watanabedori neighbourhood of Chuo Ward. There are several eateries, shops, supermarkets, amenities and links to public transport nearby.
Course selection: The school focuses on giving classes in smaller groups as they view that many Japanese schools try to teach too many students at one time. With this in mind, they offer several courses, all of which are generally in small groups. Such programmes provided by the school include Standard Japanese, Japanese Business Manners, Traditional Culture and Private lessons. Courses are available to students of all levels, with classes personalised to meet the needs of every Japanese language learner.
Accommodation: Meiji Academy Fukuoka has a range of options for accommodation available to students. These include homestays with local families, room shares, shared houses, and private apartments.
Social and cultural: Travelling to Fukuoka and learning Japanese often comes as a consequence of a student's interest in Japanese culture. Meiji Academy embraces this by offering students activities, social events, gourmet adventures and guided trips to surrounding areas and locations of interest. The activities, events, and excursions can include Zen Meditation in local temples, language exchanges, bamboo shoot digging, hiking in nearby mountains, karaoke nights and much more.

Student reviews about "Standard Course" at Meiji Academy
David
"Already mentioned. I would have preferred real life speaking drills rather than textbook drills."
Ralf
"Well trained teacher. Just one thing They give photocopies of the method Genki but it would be better to give the book straight away. There might a financial difference but that's not so important. "

“The Admin and Teachers were wonderful. They found me a nice place that was very, very convenient to the school (within walking minutes). The teachers patiently wrote all things in both kanji and hiragana on the board.”
“It was a bit too high schoolish for me. The had a textbook (that was fine) but they went over reading practices and the grammar in class. The textbook reading should have be given as homework. Then valuable class time would focus on speaking drills using the grammar we studied and putting it into Japanese sentences.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Already mentioned. I would have preferred real life speaking drills rather than textbook drills.
Other comments: You couldn't find a better staff. You could improve on class structure however.

There is no study room for the students and not enough space in general.”

“Teacher changes daily. All of them were nice and friendly. The teaching went well for beginners.”
“I did not feel that the operation was going smoothly. There was a time when they forgot the amount I had already paid and asked to pay again. Also, on the first day of class, I didn't receive a call about the schedule change therefore I lost one hour of the class. The next day after the typhoon, everyone in my class had to wait an hour as no one was contacted about the schedule change.”
