"Beautiful scenery and friendly teachers are a good place to study"

CHENYICHIEN

I have learned a lot in school. I feel that my listening skills have improved a lot. In each class, the teacher will have some dialogue with me, and then there will be some extra-curricular activities after class to make me better understand Japanese culture!

And the best thing is that in terms of dormitory, it is very well equipped and clean!

The point is that everyone in the school is very kind, this is the best place!

In the end, Hida city is a rural place, but it is a beautiful and quaint city!
