Our Philosophy: Learn, Speak, Live in Kyoto
We have one program because we have one philosophy: true language fluency comes from combining rigorous classroom learning with rich cultural immersion.
Our curriculum is designed to get you communicating with confidence as quickly as possible. But we know the most important lessons happen outside our walls. That’s why we uniquely integrate our program with our location in Japan’s cultural capital. We organize regular cultural activities, events, and real-world “missions” that encourage you to step out into Kyoto, practice your Japanese, and connect with the community. You won’t just learn Japanese; you’ll live it.
We offer various housing options; you can learn more on our Accommodation page.
