At Meihoku Training Center, we learned Japanese and about life in Japan. The teachers were strict but friendly, and students were grouped by language level for easier learning. A native Japanese teacher was also available, and some lessons were explained in Nepali. The center’s rules and schedules gave us valuable experience before coming to Japan.
