We want you to have a good idea about what studying with us is really like before you take the plunge to sign up. Expecting something different from what actually exists is a sure path to disappointment, and the last thing we want to do is disappoint our students. <br \/> So, we have started a small program of student blogs, where we provide longer-term students (those studying for 6 or more weeks) with their own blog space to write about their experience at GenkiJACS, in Fukuoka, and anything else they want to discuss. We have a written policy of not editing comments in any way as long as they adhere to our (somewhat vague) <a href=\"{https:\/\/www.genkijacs.com\/blogrules.htm{\">published guidelines<\/a>.<br \/> Our inaugural blogger, Paul Isaac, has been at it for a couple of weeks now, on <a href=\"{www.genkijacs.com\/blog\/paulisaac.php{\">his blog space here<\/a>. It&#8217;s also linked from the bottom right of this page, but not big enough for most people to notice, unfortunately. We&#8217;re still working on the layout&#8230;<br \/> Over the next few weeks, we&#8217;ll slowly add a few more bloggers who will hopefully give you a rounded view of what study with us entails. And if you&#8217;re signed up to study with us and would be interested in getting your own blog, feel free to send us an email, and we&#8217;ll work something out. We may even be able to throw in a tuition discount for you somewhere!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>| We&#8217;re all for freedom of information at GenkiJACS.
