Sakura Batch May 2025: Japanese Language & Culture Course


The primary objective of the Sakura course was to introduce students to the basics of the Japanese language, essential grammar, and everyday conversational phrases—while also familiarizing them with Japanese customs, etiquette, and cultural values. The course included live instruction, cultural demonstrations, role-playing exercises, and interactive quizzes to reinforce learning in a fun and meaningful way.


We are proud to share that all 19 students who completed the Sakura course have been selected for a two-month internship in Japan. This internship opportunity is a testament to their dedication and the effectiveness of the course in preparing them for real-world experiences in a Japanese environment.

The students departed for Japan on 24 May 2025, ready to apply their newly acquired language skills and cultural knowledge in professional settings.


Experience Japan remains committed to fostering cross-cultural understanding and global opportunities for Indian students. The success of the Sakura course reinforces our mission to build bridges between India and Japan through education and exchange.


We look forward to continuing this journey with more such initiatives in the future.
