Primarily, Wellingtonians have a reputation for two things: producing intellectually interesting cinema; and being culturally diverse, according to the BBC in 2016. The latter point is reflected in the number of communities (more than 25, according to the census) that reside in Wellington. One of them is the Japanese community, which amounted to almost 2,000 people in 2013. From learning how to wear a kimono like a true Japanese woman to exploring exciting local and overseas career options, learning Japanese in Wellington will open up your world to new opportunities. Contact us at Language Trainers and get started with a personalised Japanese course that truly adapts to your busy schedule and level.

Why Study Japanese in Wellington

For Culture: Those interested in deepening their knowledge about this ancient culture will be happy to know there are plenty of Japanese events around the city. For your one-stop-shop for somewhere you can learn about almost all the Japanese cultural activities in the city, you can get in touch with the Embassy of Japan in New Zealand on Willis Street; an institution that, since 1992, has been promoting friendly relations and cultural exchange between Japan and New Zealand. For instance, they fund an annual Grand Programme that allows university students to participate in a foreign exchange, where they can spend two months in Japan for a full language immersion experience.

Meanwhile, other Japanese cultural events in Wellington include Asia Aware, an event that gathers together young people to enjoy a day full of traditional games and Japanese movies screened in their original language. You can even practise kendama as if you were in Japan without ever leaving Wellington! And, after these meetings, why not attend the annual Japanese Film Festival with your new friends? It encourages the growth of the Japanese culture and understanding of it in New Zealand by featuring classic and contemporary films of Japanese origin in their original language. You won’t have to worry about following the English subtitles after taking a reasonable number of lessons with us.

For Work: Furthermore, knowing Japanese will open up new professional opportunities for you in Wellington. If you are looking to network with other entrepreneurs, for example, the Japanese Embassy in Wellington organises an annual Summit Meeting attended by politicians and businesspeople. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to build long-lasting relationships using the Japanese skills you acquire with us at Language Trainers! Also, with the advance of globalisation, more and more companies like Lotte Duty and James Freeson are expanding to overseas markets and need bilingual employees to communicate with their partners and clients in Japan. Start learning the language today and you will be at advantage over other monolingual candidates when applying for Japanese bilingual jobs!
