If you need accommodation in Okazaki (apartment, flat, ryokan, hotel etc), I can help. If you are going to be studying at Yamasa, or visiting Yamasa then its easy. If you are not going to be studying, for example if you coming to Okazaki for work etc, you'll need to give me about 10-12 weeks notice. Try here first though.

For studies at Yamasa, of course. Please read the website thoroughly first, and complete the application forms on the website first though - as it is impossible to answer your questions without information about you. We can always change your application later if you prefer.

I love travelling, especially in Japan. It isn't as expensive as is made out, and there is a lot to see. Please use the Travel FAQ, and feel free to ask questions using the bulletin boards, and then if you don't receive detailed info to your satisfaction, write to me. If you don't get an answer it means either "I don't know" or "I'm travelling".

Try reading the "Some hints for learning Japanese" file and the "About Nihongo" FAQ. Curriculum questions are covered in the Program Catalog. Grammar and other language questions are best directed to the bulletin boards.

One of the side benefits of my job is that I know a lot about obtaining certificates of eligibility, extensions, changing visa status etc. If you want to know if you can study on a work visa, or change from a working holiday visa to a student visa without having to leave the country, or want to sponsor yourself a work visa etc, I either know the answer or can get the info very quickly. Best to do these things over the telephone though, as the processes can be complicated, and email will take too long.
