This was my first Worldpackers experience and it's probably going to be my best. Everyone at StudyGarden is incredible and helpful. The classes which take about an hour a day, are enjoyable and don't feel like work at all. Tsuru is a really nice and peaceful place with lots of stores working 24/7 which is surprising and useful. Tokyo and Mt Fuji are also really close (1h by bus or 2 by train to Shinjuku, half an hour to Mt Fuji) StudyGarden provides lots of ingredients (such as eggs, carrots..) which makes life much easier. Kenta's dog is really cute and well behaved. Overall it was wonderful!

I had an amazing time at the school! The accommodation was good and is right above the school witch is very convenient. Also the working hours are respected and easy (5h< a week). Classes are usually in the late afternoon so I had most of the day free. Mt. Fuji was visible every day from Tsuru! The train ride to Tokyo is around 2h so I was able to go multiple times. Thank you so much to Kenta, Kaede and Fumi-san for having me. I had so much fun and made many new great friends from around the world. I loved my time there and hope I can come back someday 🫶

I loved my experience in the school. Kaede and Fumi san were so nice and welcoming, and Kenta the host was also a very kind person! I met some amazing people and I got lucky with awesome roommates that I'll cherish my time with. There are a lot of stuff to do around Yamanashi prefecture, and you will be seeing Mt. Fuji almost everyday :) great nature and cool activities, and Tsuru is only one bus from Tokyo. Now for serious stuff: there are several room options, and they are not bad at all. The kitchen is well equipped. Working hours are respected -5 days a week, 2-3 hours a day in the eve.

I truly enjoyed my 2 last weeks at the school, the team is simply amazing. They are supeeer kind, they make you feel like home, the english lessons are super fun, and you can connect in such a beautiful way with the kids. Also, you have the chance to meet lovely people over there, make plans, explore... Since I came here, I just realized that I enjoy teaching english a lot! Thanks a lot, Kaede, Fumiko and Kenta, with all my heart, I already want to come back!!
