Shinjuku Japanese Language Institute (SNG)

Blended Learning

Shinjuku Japanese Language Institute began offering a cloud-based Japanese instruction service, Visual Learning Japanese (VLJ), for use by foreigners in cooperation with NTT Communications.

Featuring this method, NTT Communications developed cloud-based e-learning teaching materials so that students can learn Japanese easily. Our original teaching system "blended-learning," which is a combination of online and offline in-class lessons, allows students to learn the language more effectively. The applications for smartphones and tablets, and video clips for PCs enable students to access the content of the class at all times to practice and review the lessons whenever it is necessary, and which will result in faster acquisition of Japanese.

Why not come and visualize your Japanese at SNG?

Tokyo Central Japanese Language School（TCJ）

The good location, reasonable tuition fees and the visa support system made me decide to enter TCJ!

There were 3 main reasons why I chose TCJ.

The location is great. Also, the tuition is cheaper than other schools and they provide me with visa application support.

I studied Japanese independently for four years before coming to Japan, but I was not able to speak it well. The lessons at TCJ were more exciting than studying by myself.

The class environment was multicultural and I made friends with students from China, Vietnam and Nepal. Communicating with them in Japanese enriched my listening and speaking skills.

I had difficulties learning grammar and kanji, but I was eventually able to pass the JLPT N3 test. The teachers will support you to the best of their abilities.

Sun Academy NIHONGO Center

Small but mighty

Working full-time, finding a Japanese language course in Tokyo is surprisingly difficult. Most schools offer classes only during work hours.

After a long search I got lucky with Sun Academy. This small gem has very friendly, talented teachers, is conveniently located and offers totally flexible times, with very early, late and weekend classes. Both in small groups or individually.

Private classes can use whatever book you prefer, but they also published their own task-oriented language books, which are well thought out, fun, have really cute illustrations and are a great extension to any books you might already own.

Highly recommended.

Academy of Language Arts

Become fluent in Japanese

Our educational aim is that learners become able to not only gain Japanese knowledge and understand Japanese, but also communicate well in Japanese. We provide practical training with our students in order for them to use it in actual society once they learn something new. Even if leaners start from zero level in Japanese, we assure that they have fluency in Japanese as of their graduation. Therefore our graduates have acquired good communication skills at ALA.

We have offered Japanese language education for practical communication consistently since our foundation. It has resulted in extremely high evaluations in the training of global human resource development for Japanese companies.
