School Feature

Our school offers two main courses.

 The “Preparatory Course” classes focus on improving Japanese language skills with the Japanese Language Proficiency Test ( JLPT ) in mind so that students can achieve their goals.We also focus on college counseling and information sessions, indispensable for students pursuing higher education after graduation.We place great importance on being there for the little details as well as study problems.


 The “Specific skills Worker Course” is a new course established as the first step in the development of human resources, who are important workers that will support Japanese society in the future, in complying with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare’s “Promotion of Utilization of Foreign Human Resources in Enterprises”.In addition to Japanese language acquisition, we will provide individualized services such as preparation for specific skill tests, business manners, etc. to accommodate you in finding a job in Japan.


  Our school is located in a quiet and convenient area in Tokyo.We have received a very good reputation for our meticulous support for students, which is the key to success in studying in Japan, as well as student lifestyle support.We support your study abroad experience safely and multilingually so that you can start your study abroad experience with peace of mind from the first day.Our skilled teachers use direct methods to help students acquire higher Japanese language skills in a short period of time, without overlooking their individual characteristics.In order to provide important experiences and memories to the students, there are activities other than language education, such as the Kimono experience, calligraphy, sports competitions to develop teamwork, and cultural festivals, which are held during the school year.


 As the number of Japanese language learners rapidly diversifies, institutions of Japanese language education will be required to respond to this trend as well.Thanks to the development of various tools, both education and culture can be transmitted without time differences, bringing the world closer together.However, studying abroad will teach you that there are still many things that you cannot understand or experience unless you actually go to that country.


 In this way, we are striving to improve the quality of education at our school through various innovations and advancements in order to lead you to a successful study abroad experience in Japan.
