Many of us are serious to learn and improve our Japanese. Learning the language in the local country is fundamental to achieve proficiency and open up our career paths. Japanese society can benefit from students like me and others, investing in this country and developing their Japanese skills.

International students can help the economy, bringing money from their countries to Japan (Also spending money in tourism). We can also make contributions into the educational system, especially language private schools for foreiners, that needs students in Japan in order to remain open.

Jack, 23, UK

I’ve always been very interested in the country and it’s culture and would like to to be able to study further education in Japan and to eventually work there. I also have native Japanese friends in Japan, so I would like to be able to speak to them to be able to speak to me in their mother tongue.

I am hoping to attend a Japanese college for Musical Arts after learning the Japanese language at a fluent level, and create video game music compositions that inspire those around me and the future generations of children and adults alike. I wish to use my ambitions for Japan only, as no other country has come close to encaptivating me as Japan has.

In Japan, I plan to embrace the lifestyle as much as possible, participating in local events and immersing myself in the culture. I hope to make new friends and relationships, and would aim to contribute to society by always conducting myself in an exemplary manner as to ferment a confidence in the Japanese public of foreign visitors.

I will have to replan so many things in my life. I have taken months to prepare for my trip in July, and it would be devastating if foreign students are not allowed in.

Vittoria, 33, Italy

If there were other delays it would be truly tragic for me, because I seem to leave my life hanging between Italy and Japan. In fact, knowing that at any moment the borders could reopen, I refused more remunerative jobs and with annual assignments, because I would not be able to free myself from these contracts and suddenly leave for Japan. I am avoiding engaging in long-term projects both from a business and a private point of view and this unfortunately is negatively affecting my life.
