Our Standard Course uses interesting and modern materials and activities to focus on improving your Japanese speaking ability in a way that gives you the flexibility to adapt to new situations. Small group classes offer a full range of useful and exciting activities at a reasonable cost. That is probably why it is our most popular course.

We are here to make it easy for you! 

There are, however, certain requirements, including academic and attendance. You have to pass your regular tests and have attendance higher than 80% in order for your visa to be valid.
