We’re back, after an extended hiatus! It’s been a busy couple of months for us, and we’re sorry for not having updated the blog during that time. Here’s your quick rundown of what happened since April:
– We moved to our new, much bigger and far fancier location. We now have 6 classrooms, 6 computers for student use, a permanent big-screen movie setup, and much much more…
– The photo gallery on our website was hacked, taking our site offline for the better part of two days and necessitating the temporary removal of the gallery entirely. We’re still in the process of re-uploading everyone’s happy memories, so if there’s a photo you really want to see, feel free to remind us!
– Several new teachers have been hired, and their info will be added to our teacher page shortly.
– Summer study season began, bringing with it a flood of new students and a whole host of exciting events!
– We finally inked our deal for a Farmstay Japanese course with WWOOF Japan, the Willing Workers on Organic Farms organization that does much to raise the profile of organic farming around the world. Details are here.

We’ll try to be a little bit more timely in our postings from now on, but feel free to give us a kick if we forget to update for a while!
Our plans for the near future:
– Finish restoring photos to the gallery, and at some point get round to re-themifying it
– Add audio and video of classes to the website itself, so that you can see the teaching style at GenkiJACS for yourself
– Add a whole lot of study materials for the Proficiency Test, and for Japanese in general, freely downloadable for all
– Continue to offer a top-notch Japanese education at a reasonable price. You know, just cos we can…
