In response to the lifting of the state of emergency in Fukuoka on May 15, 2020, the school would like to gladly announce that starting from May 18, 2020, the school is open again for in person face-to-face lessons.

For the safety of all our students and staff, we are implementing additional cleaning and hygiene measures at the school. Please click here for details! We will continue to re-evaluate our measures to ensure that we are keeping up with the latest conditions.

If  you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us on info@wahahanihongo.com!

Due to a possible upcoming declaration of state of emergency in Fukuoka, the school would like to make a special announcement of our upcoming measures to all our students as follows:

For the safety of all our students and staff, starting from April 8, 2020 (Wednesday) and until May 31, 2020 (Sunday), the school will temporarily switch all our lessons to online lessons.

We will strive to continue providing our best lessons and excellent experience at Wahaha. While students are temporarily unable to attend our lessons in-person at the school, we are still providing our WAHAHA-style Japanese lessons online! All of our teachers are well-qualified and experienced, and we provide a flexible curriculum tailor-made to your only study needs and goals. For further details, please click here.

We are expecting to re-open the school for in-person lessons again starting from June 1, 2020, and we will continue to re-evaluate our measures to ensure that we are keeping up with the latest conditions.

Course Information

While the situation around the novel coronavirus continues to evolve, we wish to assure all current and prospective students that WAHAHA Japanese Language School is still open as normal, and we are doing everything we can to ensure our students’ safety. To date, we are still welcoming foreign students who wish to learn Japanese in Fukuoka, our beautiful city. (Regretfully, with the exception of students residing in countries with entrance restrictions already imposed by the Japanese Government.)

WAHAHA is a small-sized Japanese school in Fukuoka. We are specialized in providing personalized curriculum to our students in a cozy, friendly and family-like atmosphere through private lessons and small-sized group lessons. In response to the coronavirus, we have further reduced the size of our group classes to 1-2 students in order to minimize the risks of infection among students.

As it has always been, the safety and well-being of our students are our top priority. The school has taken extra effort to implement additional cleaning and hygiene precautions. Currently, we have deployed antibacterial hand sanitizers in public spaces of the school and have increased the frequency of cleaning our facilities with disinfectant. From time to time, we will continue to re-evaluate these measures to ensure that we are keeping up with the latest conditions.

Course Information

Unlike most Japanese language schools, Wahaha will remain open during the Golden Week 2020! We will be open on April 29, 30, May 1, 4, 5, 6 and classes will be held as usual during these holidays, so if you sign up for a course during this time, you will not miss out on any classes due to the holidays.

If you are planning on coming to study Japanese in Fukuoka during Golden Week 2020, please do not hesitate to contact us as we will be happy to arrange a course just for you!
