Teen programme learning Japanese and the Japanese culture

Start on any Monday with a flexible duration (1-10 weeks) and no previous Japanese knowledge required for the ages 15 to 19 at Japanese language level A0 - A2

Fun lessons with daily activities. A native teacher and only 5-8 students per class. Limited spots available. Our curriculum also includes real-world practice whenever possible. For example, after a lesson on ordering in a café, students will actually go out and order in person—maximising the value of their time in Japan and helping them apply what they’ve learned immediately.

What’s included: Daily Japanese class + hands-on activity. Homestay with a local family with home-cooked breakfast and dinner. Lots of local interaction opportunities.
