When I had to express my feelings in Japanese, I couldn't do it properly and it was painful, so I started studying Japanese. I passed JLPT N3 once, but I failed N2. I felt bad about that and really wanted to pass N2, so I took the JPT exam for the first time.
It's been a long time since I last took the exam, so I was nervous and couldn't answer all the reading comprehension questions in time, so I'll try harder next time. While the JLPT has a result of passing and failing (failure), the JPT allows me to see how far I can go, so I felt like I was being pushed back instead of feeling like a failure. Since you can use your JPT score when job hunting, your activities will become more enjoyable from now on.
I want to do work that helps people in my own way. I would like to work especially for foreigners in need, such as interpreting or welfare work. Thanks to JPT, I was able to confirm my abilities, and I am truly grateful. I'm 58 years old, but I feel like I can still do my best.

I started studying Japanese because I wanted to have conversations with local people in the country's language. At school, I can understand simple Japanese.
I think the good thing about JPT is that it allows you to measure your current level of Japanese without feeling pressured compared to other exams. After actually taking the exam, I found it useful for learning Japanese. Also, I found out that I am weak in reading and writing kanji, so I would like to study more and become able to speak fluently in daily life.

I took the JPT because I wanted to measure my ability to pass JLPT N1 and because I thought it would give me an advantage at work.
I think it's good that JPT has exams every month. When I actually took the exam, I realized that my grammar, ability to understand conversation content, reading and writing kanji, and ability to read sentences were weak. Also, since I use Japanese every day at work, I wanted to improve my skills.
In the future, I would like to try my hand at bilingual work using Japanese.

（PHILIPPINES・part-time job）
It's been a year and a half since I came to Japan. When I was in elementary school, a friend who always talked about anime introduced me to One Piece. I learned a lot about Japan, and that's when I started wanting to know more. I thought.
I took the JPT test thinking it would give me an advantage in going to higher education or getting a job, but when I actually took the test, I realized what skills I lacked and it was a good experience.
From now on, I would like to challenge myself up to the N1 level.

（BRAZIL・part-time job）
I started studying Japanese because I wanted to build a career in Japan.
I took the JPT because I thought it would give me an advantage in furthering my education or working in Japan, and I like that the JPT specializes in listening and reading comprehension questions.
After taking the test, I felt that my ability to respond appropriately to questions, read and write Kanji, and read sentences were weak, so I will continue to study on my own by using Youtube. I would like to be able to speak Japanese more fluently.

（KOREA・housewife）
I have been in Japan for 27 years and I took the JPT to find out my current level of Japanese.
When I actually took the test, I thought it would be a good way to measure my Japanese communication skills. I also think it is good that there are many times to take the test, so I can try it over and over again. I found that I was weak in honorifics, the ability to respond appropriately to questions, and the ability to read sentences.
During the exam, I was frazzled because I did not have enough time, so I would like to improve my ability to understand and answer questions instantaneously.

After taking the JPT, I thought it would be a good reference for my Japanese language study and measure my Japanese communication skills. I think it is also good that the score can measure the level of the examinee. I found that my Japanese language skills were not good enough to give appropriate responses to questions.
My dream is to become a conference interpreter in the future, so I would like to study mainly current affairs Japanese.
I hope that more people will know about JPT and that its recognition will spread.

I am a Japanese-Brazilian and have been in Japan for 31 years.

I wanted to study Japanese because I cannot read kanji. My goal is to become a good communicator and to find a good job.
When I took the JPT, I thought it would measure my ability beyond N1 on the JLPT and that it would be easy to understand my Japanese level.
I am weak in reading and writing Kanji characters, so I will study them in the online class. If I read a Japanese book every day, I think I will be able to learn many different kanji.

（PHILIPPINES・part-time job）
I decided to study Japanese because I wanted to learn about Japanese culture and lifestyle.
The JPT was more difficult than the JLPT because of the large number of kanji. In addition to reading and writing kanji, I found that I lacked other skills in Japanese, such as honorifics and the ability to read sentences.
I am interested and excited about studying Japanese! In the future, I would like to teach in my own country.

I took the JPT because I wanted to know my current level of Japanese, but I didn't have enough time to answer the exam. After taking the test, I thought it would be good to be able to measure my Japanese communication skills, take the test as many times as I want in a year, and get results quickly.

My goal was to make Japanese friends, so I decided to study Japanese in order to understand conversations.
After taking the JPT, I thought it would be good to be able to measure JLPT N1 or higher ability, and unlike other Japanese language proficiency tests, there is no pass or fail. My ability to read sentences is weak, so I would like to be able to read more kanji.

（PHILIPPINES・housewife）
I studied Japanese because it was difficult for me to understand my children's situation at school.
I took the JPT to find out my current level of Japanese, and found that I was weak in various areas such as grammar, word usage, honorifics, understanding the content of conversations, responding appropriately to questions, reading and writing kanji, and reading sentences.
I would like to teach people who do not understand Japanese as well as I do, so I would like to learn kanji and how to listen and do my best. I am glad I learned Japanese!

RAMON
（MEXICO・Part time freelancer）
The reason I started learning Japanese was the travel and the migration I did to Japan.
I took the test because I wanted to know my Japanese language ability, and since there were questions about the Japanese language used inside a company and expressions, taking this test would be advantageous for job hunting in Japan. And this test is very convenient for foreigners in Japan.
Because I felt that I was lacking in the ability to read paragraphs, I will use more textbooks for Japanese people to study from now on. My goal is to be able to speak Japanese like native speakers.

（THAILAND, Housewif）
At first I started learning Japanese because my mother forced me to. But as time goes, learning Japanese gets more and more interesting, so I continued learning it.
I took JPT because I felt that it would be a great advantage since my goal is to work in Japan. The good point of JPT is that the result of the test is not determined by passing or not passing, instead they use scoring method, and by looking at the score, each individual can know which level to take if they think of taking JLPT. JPT is not a test to show that you can if you memorize, but they measure a person’s communication ability.
And I want to improve my Japanese skill by speaking, and reading more.
