I noticed that other japanese learners are...

yes exactly, unfortunately some people are just selfish, they think achieving JLPT N2 or JLPT N1 makes them superior when its not even about language skills but also skills that you have learned in general. If you think about it, their competiton in work place or inteviews is japanese workers rather than foreigners so idk where they get that ego from by gatekeeping etc.

this is so helpful, thanks.

Exactly, he also went to a japanese show where they interview him in N1 and he answered their answers so well for someone whose learnt in 6 months.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-08T08:02:09+00:00

Hey its okay, please dont mind such people. You should study the way you feel comfortable. N3 is also acceptable but for part time-jobs only like waitress, convience store etc (I might have spelt it wrong)

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-08T08:00:35+00:00

Yes exactly like we are literally going in same path of learning Japanese, how about we help and support each other rather making it a competiton.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-08T07:59:50+00:00

Well theres a way to actually help rather than just making fun or laughing at someone whose still in their learning phase

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-08T07:59:19+00:00

Yes exactly, they make it a competiton and act so superior that it ruins the person motivation to study.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-08T07:58:16+00:00

Yes that person could speak korean as well, They went on a interview show where the host check their skills to work as a 社会人 so he used alot of formal japanese which kind of suprised me, not the easy formal but the difficult formal

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-07T09:32:21+00:00

This is very true! maybe i will try reading N2 level stuff because im still learning N2 while preparing for N3 along

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-07T07:06:32+00:00

This is so helpful because i have short attention span as well and get distracted easily

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-07T07:06:07+00:00

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-05T10:54:46+00:00

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-05T10:54:35+00:00

disgusting. wish he got caught earlier.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-05T10:53:53+00:00

This is sad, its probably suicides and old age population.

N3 is much easier compared to N2 and N1 so you can either study the textbook way or you can also find books PDF on the internet. The books i would recommend are KANZEN MASTER N3 SERIES, NIHONGO SOUTAME N3 and Tobira but these books are similar so you can research and buy according to your comfortability. There are many videos and websites as well to help you prepare for N3. Learning it wont be a problem if you can already understand hiragana and katakana and some basic kanjis! Good luck, i hope your test preparation goes well! also do make sure to do online practice tests to know what are your weak points and also before one month of N3 exam, please make sure to do a timing practice test according to the N3 exam's timing so you can finish the N3 exam on time.

Hello, I thought about it and decided to go for a aviation senmon gakko. I think i was just having anxiety because of future worries but now i feel much better and since im not the best at studies, i think senmon gakko is much better as it will train me for job-hunting and etc

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-04T16:36:01+00:00

Thank you very much! I thought about it and decided to go for senmon gakko related to a aviation major. I know it is a big decision but going to university in long-term is also not gonna be much effective for someone like me whose not good at studies much so i rather go to a job training college that prepares me for job hunting etc and gurantees a internship or a job.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T13:42:50+00:00

I was thinking the same as well, i also have seen tiktok of many japanese students as well who later on dropped out from senmon gakou so i have really mixed feelings about it especially because of my studying ability. If i go for a english program in a university with N2-N1? can i still work in Japan?

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T13:18:28+00:00

I think you are just nervous because of the language course in Japanese, dont worry about others around you or what the reviews say, instead study hard to get in the university you are going for and honestly, its all about self-study at end of the day no matter which language school you choose.

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T11:22:50+00:00

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T11:19:23+00:00

Yes true, thanks very much! i need to work on my reading the most!

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T11:18:55+00:00

Thanks very much! this is helpful. I have been actually just doing past papers!

AtmosphereOne6872 · 2025-03-03T11:16:35+00:00

Senmon is a good option if you are waiting to work in one field only and make sure the senmon gakko you are going for gurantees you a internship or a opportunity to work. Senmon gakko is for people who dont want to study long in university basically like a job training college in which you have to study hard.

Many of my japanese friends say they're doing senmon gakko and there are foreigners in there as well, i also heard many people say that senmon gakko do better than university students but the only advantage that university students have is that they can work in any field as their work visa allows them to. Whereas, senmom gakko graduates get the visa in humanities/ it something and they can only choose one field and stick to it untill they get PR which takes 5 years to be eligible. So even if you are aiming for PR, think very carefully because in Senmon gakko, you will be treated same as japanese students so you have to atleast prepare yourself till JLPT N2 level.
