Japanese Language Class Information & Map of Japanese Classes

And, here is news for foreigners who think they might want to learn Japanese. There is a “Nihongo Class map”, which is a map of Japanese classes available at civic and community centers in the Fukuoka area. The information lists classes that are run with the support of volunteers from the community.

There are many different kinds of classes introduced, from beginner to advanced levels, classrooms accepting children, and classes which include cultural activities and events.

The Map of Japanese Classes has just been updated this past September. The new class map can be downloaded from the Fukuoka City home page or the Fukuoka International Association homepage.
