When we decided to attend a language school in Japan, some light research lead us to GoGoNihon as one of the most recommended conduits for the application process. I can now see why, although this was our first time using a service like this, and it was very straightforward and simple. Special thanks to our coordinator Saskia for answering all of our questions and helping us through the entire process! From recommending various language schools that could meet our needs to helping us through the actual application steps, she made the whole thing very easy! Now we are excited to start our classes in October!
Response from the owner:Hi, thank you for your review! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process. We can't wait for you to start classes in October!

GoGo Nihon provides excellent, well-informed, professional service to anyone interested in spending time in Japan beyond a short tourist trip. Help finding an educational opportunity is free!

I am applying for a student visa and gogonihon has helped me a lot, on my own I wouldn't know where to start. From gathering all the documents and sending them to immigration, to useful guides to help you throught the process. All my questions have been awnsered by the guides. Silvia really helped me when I had to reschedule my trip because of personal reasons, I really appreciated that. Im very happy with the organisation and recommend it to others

Javan B.
I've been in contact with Layna from Go Go Nihon to enroll into a japanese language course in Tokyo for 1 year and all the information has been really useful, communication with Layna has always been quick and clear.
I had many questions about the application process but I was able to always get the correct information and now I'm close to move to Japan! super happy with the quality of the service.

Loklin N.
Working with GoGoNihon has been incredibly helpful and easy to do. Big shoutout to Matthew (Matt) who has been assisting me in my application process to a language school in Kyoto! Matthew has gone above and beyond in providing information, answering my questions, and relaying information between me and my school in a timely and professional manner. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to apply to a language school in Japan.
Response from the owner:Hi Loklin, thank you for your review! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process. We hope you'll enjoy your studies in Kyoto!
Tyler (.
Matt was an absolute gem of a helper to get the process going. As someone who isn't great with Japanese (yet) they made the process relatively painless and provided great resources to help with school applications, places to stay, and always provided prompt reponses to any questions I had during the process. Would recommend to anyone trying to go to Japan to live and study!
Response from the owner:Hi Tyler, thank you for your review! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process.
Kevin R.
My Go Go Nihon advisor, Sean, has been an excellent advisor. He has guided me expertly through the application process and answered any questions I had promptly and with full details. He reviewed all aspects of my application package and found a couple of small mistakes I had made and places where I had not explained aspects of my background sufficiently or had not phrased things properly (a testament to how careful a proofreader he is). I think any Go Go Nihon applicant would be fortunate to have Sean for an advisor.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review Kevin! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process.
Neguev B.
Je recommande Go! Go! Nihon. J'ai fait les cours pour débutant en ligne et j'ai vraiment aimé mon apprentissage que je trouvais bien fait dans l'ensemble. Il y a de la théorie, de la pratique et quelques explications vidéos et résumées parfois. L'accompagnement est vraiment le gros plus de la plateforme! J'ai été accompagné par Nora et Ayumi dans mes démarches. Elles sont claires, rapides et très à l'écoute! Merci à toute l'équipe!
Response from the owner:Bonjour, merci pour votre commentaire ! C'est avec plaisir que nous vous aidons dans vos projets d'études.

Aleksandra O.
The service that GoGo Nihon and my advisor Reinaldi have provided me has been absolutely exceptional. With their help and guidance, the process of applying to language school in Japan went smooth and I was able to prepare the documentation required in the correct way for it to be accepted by the language school and immigration. Not only did I recieve help with the application process, the team also contacted the language school directly on my behalf concerning matters such as securing housing in Japan. Thanks to GoGo Nihon I was given the opportunity to continue my adventures in the land of the rising sun!

A heartfelt thank you to Reinaldi and the team from GoGo Nihon.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review Aleksandra! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process and we hope you enjoy your life in Japan.

Yehor D.
I had a great experience with Go Go Nihon, the process of submitting documents was very straightforward, and at every step there was a clear plan of what to do next, which made everything much easier to follow. I always knew exactly which stage I was at. Responses usually came the next day, but that’s completely understandable given the time difference. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the support

David J.
GoGo Nihon has been an exceptional resource and service for applying to a language school. The paperwork and process are streamlined and communication has been great. It takes out a lot of the headache that would inevitably have been there. Layna has been a great coordinator throughout the entire process, with timely and informative responses. I would highly recommend it because why not use experts who have already gone through what you are planning? And best of all, it's free!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review David! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process.
Rose L.
I am very pleased with how Go! Go! Nihon has helped me throughout this whole process of studying to Japan!

To my advisor, Saskia, she has helped me from the start of this adventure with notifying me about the 12 week Japanese course work and certification once you pass the course. To the very end of me preparing to be a full-time student.

I have searched at many companies to help me with studying abroad but Go! Go! Nihon has certainly been the best:)
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review Rose! We're happy we could help you throughout the whole process.
Pedro Hinojos S.

Go! Go! Nihon Live and Study in Japan!

In 2009, after meeting and studying at a Japanese language school together, Davide and John start working on a project that will make the process of living and studying in Japan much easier. The idea for Go! Go! Nihon is born. The service and website is launched with Italian, Swedish, and English language support. There is an immediate positive reception to the service and the first long-term students start the October session that year.
