Hi all,
I’m planning to move to Japan and considering a language school in Wakayama, but I’m unsure if it’s the right move.
About me:
• JLPT N3 certified
• Bachelor’s in Business Administration (International Business)
• Work experience at Amazon in operations and support specialist experience role
• Goal: Reach N2+ and work professionally in Japan (preferably in business or operations)
Wakayama seems appealing due to lower cost of living and quieter life, but I’m concerned about limited job opportunities, networking, and part-time work options compared to bigger cities.
My main questions:
• Is a full-time language school still worth it at N3 level?
• Will my Amazon and business background help in job hunting post-language school?
• Is being in a smaller city like Wakayama a disadvantage career-wise?
Would really appreciate any advice, especially from those who studied or lived in smaller cities. Thanks!
