Genki Japanese Language & Culture School

I highly recommend learning Japanese at Genki JACS, Shinjuku, Tokyo! I learned a lot, and had a lot of fun while taking the classes. A maximum of 8 students attended the regular classes, and during the conversation classes, we were only 4 students, so I was able to improve my language fluency a lot! The teachers were really nice and put a lot of effort into improving our language abilities. The location is super convenient, close to the station and many lunch restaurants. I also really enjoyed my stay at the host family which Genki JACS arranged, which further helped me improve my speaking skills. I will definitely return to learn more Japanese!

I studied Japanese (beginner level) for two weeks. As a senior, I was initially concerned that I might feel out of place, but I was so wrong! The teachers kept all of us engaged, constantly, interacting with one another, and often amused. Japanese exclusively was spoken during lessons; GenkiJACS teachers found imaginative ways of conveying the information and grammar points, so it was easy to understand for everyone. Because classes were small (8 students max) the instructors were able to constantly monitor us during paired conversations and gently corrected any errors or misunderstandings. I would highly recommend this program to anyone serious about learning Japanese reading, writing, listening and speaking.

They gave all the information needed (education, classes, information, housing, prices, etc), apart from being available anytime you needed. The Japanese classes were rich and also well organized. The layouts were between 6-10 students, approximately, which made the class more personal and comfortable.

The transparency from booking classes until the very end they were really transparent.

Also, the teachers and receptionists were really helpful, even if it wasn't class-related. I recommend this experience. Sadly, I only took 2 weeks. Next time I'll take more. See you soon!

I can't wait to come back to Genki JACS Kyōto!
I've studied 3weeks, and each day, little by little, my level has increased.
Genki JACS staff do really care about their students. I felt like home, and didn't want to leave, haha! Everyday was a good day.
ありがとうございました！

J'ai hâte de retourner dans cette école!
J'ai pu y étudier durant trois semaines, et chaque jour je constatais l'évolution de mon niveau en japonais. Toute l'équipe est à l'écoute et j'ai eu des échanges très intéressants. N'hésitez pas à les contacter, iels sont super!

Genki JACS Fukuoka delivered a succinct and rigorous introductory Japanese summer course for the 4 weeks I was there. The instructors were friendly and patient, engaging us in small talk before class and during breaks to help provide an opportunity to practice what we learnt in an everyday context. Moreover, there is an emphasis on speaking only Japanese during class so as to enhance your learning experience, which I found helpful. Genki also organizes daily cultural events so you're never short!
