Yes! You heard it right, theres some area in the philippines especially davao who offered nihonggo as their main education. One of them is mindanao kokusai daigaku college in davao.

... meaning you should give ample time on your studies. Set your goal as much as possible. It would be a good help if youll make your daily schedule like the time and the topic that you have to finish for a certain time.
2. Be aware / curious
... meaning always be alert on every single japanese you read or encountered. Ask question if necessary. Do a research online and download several applications that can help you find the meaning. By doing this your knowledge and vocabulary increases without your knowing.
3. Read and write
..... this tips really helps me practice my katakana and hiragana familiarization a lot.
sometimes we can only recognize character by seeing them but when dictation comes and we need to write for the word itself, we sometimes have a hard time right. So write and read as much as you can. It will not only benefit you as a student but as a person as well. Being fluent in a certain language different from your native one is really a plus. Its a skill that everyone would loved to. So take the opportunity to be good.
4. Listen and watch

My friend of mine doesnt have a proper nihongo studies but when tried to learn the basic one, he can adopt it easily since hes been an anime addict for some time.
