The Miyazaki International Foundation supports the study of Japanese in Miyazaki Prefecture.
・Japanese language classes (Nihongo kōza, Hinata nihongo kurasu), where participants learn from teachers and textbooks ※Also available online!
・Local Japanese language classes (chīki nihongo kyōshitsu), where participants can learn Japanese through interacting with people who live in their local area.
We are also able to introduce people who are unable to make it to classes to volunteer Japanese teachers.
