Tokyo language schools: Naganuma School or ALA (Academy of Langauge Arts)

Hello! I'm applying to study at a language school in Tokyo. I'm at around N4 now and hoping to go to a school with moderate intensity to make significant progress towards N3 while having enough time to job search for predominantly English speaking roles in my field (IT/tech). I've narrowed down my search to The Naganuma School in Shibuya or ALA in Shinjuku. They both seem to have very favorable opinions on threads where I've seen former students mention them. I was wondering if anyone had any more recent experiences with them. In particular, I'm wondering whether you found the class you were placed into appropriate, whether they require writing kanji by hand, and what you liked and disliked about the teaching style. Also any information about the vibe of the school is welcome, and whether or not you were able to make friends or do things outside of school as well. Thank you!
