Details about this course

This language school is located in the Kansai region and focuses on giving its students an authentic insight into everyday life in Japan from the perspective of the locals.

Kansai is known as a region with extremely warm-hearted people who are very communicative and welcoming. You will receive a warm welcome and quickly feel at home surrounded by genuine hospitality!

The homestay course starts every Monday, offering flexible entry even for short study stays.

Unlike academically oriented language schools, this school does not rigidly follow an outdated curriculum based on dusty textbooks. With the support of locals, you will learn contemporary Japanese and useful grammar that you will often encounter in your everyday life in Japan. Even as a beginner with no prior knowledge, you will quickly make progress that you can apply directly!

Classes are held in small groups so that teachers can respond to the individual learning needs of each student and there is time for questions.

Additional information

Take a look at the activities that await you as part of the course! Activities vary depending on the season and availability.

You will live with a carefully selected Japanese host family, with breakfast and dinner included. However, your stay offers you much more than just accommodation: as part of the family, you can improve your language skills in a natural way, experience authentic Japanese everyday life, and build valuable personal relationships.

All host families are interviewed and screened. Placements are made according to your personal preferences—whether that’s English-speaking support, host siblings similar to your age, proximity to school, or specific dietary and lifestyle needs. Travel time to school ranges from 10 to 60 minutes, depending on the family, so you can decide for yourself whether comfort, convenience, or personal connection is most important to you.

For many students, the homestay becomes the most formative and enjoyable part of their stay in Japan.

(Optional)
Airport pick-up from Kansai (KIX), Itami (ITM) or Kobe (UKB): 
+ 30.000 Yen 

For flights arriving at these airports between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.


Outside these times, a surcharge will be applied for airport pick-up.

The price applies per trip. If transportation to the airport is requested after the end of the course, 60,000 will be charged.

We strongly recommend a minimum stay of two weeks in order to get to know your host family, the surrounding area, and ultimately life in the local community.

In individual cases, however, stays of one week are possible. Upon request, we will check availability in consultation with the school.
