Do you dream of discovering Japan and can imagine traveling without your parents?
This language school in the Kansai region offers a program specially developed for teenagers, ensuring that both you and your parents can feel completely at ease.

Before your arrival, a carefully selected host family will be arranged for you. They will warmly welcome you, take care of your well-being, and always be available as a point of contact during your stay. In addition, the school’s team is there for you at all times with 24/7 support. Upon arrival at the airport, the school staff will be waiting for you, assist you with your transfer to your host family, and make the introduction.

In class, you will learn Japanese through a modern teaching concept in small groups. Together with other participants and local Japanese teenagers, you will dive into the country’s culture and traditions. The courses also give you the chance to experience seasonal highlights, such as the colorful summer festivals, the Matsuri, making your holiday truly special.

The Kansai region is known for its warm-hearted, open, and welcoming people. You will be received with genuine hospitality and soon feel right at home.

The Teen Program starts every Monday within the given timeframes, offering you a flexible entry – even for shorter stays. (Participants with zero Japanese knowledge start at the beginning of the program period.)

Since classes are held in small groups, teachers can focus on each student’s individual needs while leaving plenty of 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.
