In 2008, JLRC became a corporation as its Nihongo services volume grew. Despite this, JLRC had been focused mainly on research and development, and the management had very minimal business acumen. Throughout the years, JLRC has been through so many ups and downs. One can say that JLRC has gone through a tough roller coaster ride reaching the very pinnacle of success in its prime years and going through the very brink of bankruptcy in its worst years. If there’s a silver lining to this experience, it’s that nothing is scary anymore and it brought forth a strong determination for the company to move forward, try harder and become better. It is notable though that those trying years also helped in producing the countless quality materials, high caliber instructors and effective training designs which are utilized as the solid base of its current operation. It is indeed true that turbulent times create beautiful masterpieces.
10 years after she started the company, JLRC transformed into a more stable and profitable business venture with capable employees. There was a great adjustment done in balancing financial stability with technical creativity for Japanese language education.
In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic hit and affected all businesses worldwide. JLRC, along with the majority of industries, was forced to halt operations. After a month of business hiatus, JLRC opted to shift its operations online, with the thought “Opportunities, wherever you are”.
At the moment, the extent of JLRC’s services has reached not only provinces near Metro Manila but all over the Philippines, Japan and other countries worldwide. JLRC’s challenge for pursuing ” Less Time, Less Cost, Less Effort ” in learning the Japanese language for the sake of Nihongo learners will never cease, always retaining the essence and spirit of its foundation in mind.
