Voices from our passing students

Passed level 6 of TOPIK

Kanae Kitagawa(From Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan)

Passed level 6 of TOPIK by increasing her actual skill and understanding in classes and through review!

I consulted about my future many times with my homeroom teacher. Thanks to my teacher, my Korean improved rapidly and I became skilled. My life at school was fun and I had valuable experiences. Because of my hard work, I could realize my dream of getting into university. I am glad I entered Shurin. I hope you all do not give up on your dreams and work hard too. I will work hard for my own future from here forward.

Passed Business Ability Examination Level 3

LIU RUBIN(From Shandong, China)

I challenged myself at this exam for my future business!!

I felt that I had to acquire the basics of business to become a full member of society, so I started studying for the Business Ability Examination. I also took the class Business Ability Examination Level 3. In class, the teacher explained about problems in the business scene and I was even more interested in the exam. After I finished studying for level 3, my teacher told me how to study for level 2. I am grateful.

Passed level 4 of TOPIK

Shiori Nanami(From Shizuoka, Japan)

She passed by conquering vocabulary, past questions and practical classes!!

For TOPIK, I studied by writing vocabulary I did not know onto cards. Also, in class they have us practice practically for the test preparation just before the TOPIK is given. I increasingly understood more vocabulary the more problems I solved, my points rose and I felt the results of my studies. Writing was particularly hard but it was very helpful that the teacher corrected and graded my work.

Comments from Graduates

Graduate of Japanese-Korean Interpretation and Translation Department
Transferred to Dong-eui University, Korea as a third-year student

Natsuno Sasame(From Chiba Prefecture, Japan)

In the beginner class, it is very understandable because they teach you from the basics. In the Comparison of Japanese and Korean Culture class I had the chance to make friends with the Korean students. In the class, instructors with experience studying abroad who are proficient at Korean and Korean-nationality instructors explained understandably to us so we could learn Korean very thoroughly and I was able to enter Dong-eui University as a third-year student.

The two years at Shurin really made me grow and were very important for me, who came there unexperienced.
I was lost about what to study before I graduated, but I chose Shurin. In my studies at Shurin, my interest in Japanese culture and language deepened and my Japanese also improved.
As a result, my goals became clear and I could transfer into Meikai University’s Department of Japanese. I am grateful for my teachers.

I had a lot of fun studying at Shurin’s Japanese-Vietnamese Interpretation and Translation course. I did not just simply study Japanese, I also learned about things regarding business as well as about Japanese culture and practices. The teachers are very skilled so every day was fun. My goal was to move on to graduate school and learn about Japan’s cutting-edge principles, so I am very happy that this was realized. Let’s all work hard for our futures with the guidance of our teachers.

LA THI BICH NGOC(From Phú Thọ Province, Vietnam)

After entering Shurin College of Foreign Language, I decided that I wanted to be a Japanese-Vietnamese interpreter and translator. To make this dream happen, I spent all my time studying, so I was eventually able to understand Japanese and Japanese culture.
I studied for two years at Shurin, where the teachers taught me passionately and I was able to pass the JLPT N2 and get a job at a Japanese school. I am glad I entered Shurin. Please study at Shurin and realize your dreams too.
