Why this school?
-
POINT1
【Make Friends from Around the World at our Multinational School!】
After going out of your way to study in a foreign country, it would be a waste to only meeting people from your own. At least, this is how we feel. Being able to meet and learn people from different backgrounds and countries is what opens up the doors to many possibilities. Why not choose a school that makes it possible to make friends from around the world? -
POINT2
【From 2 Weeks to 2 Years, Whatever Your Needs, We Can Help!】
Whether you are taking a two-week vacation from work, on a 1-month vacation from school, or studying for 2 years to prepare for employment in Japan, we can help anybody work towards their goal via the wide array of courses and study periods that we offer. This is one of the main reasons that students choose Kudan. -
POINT3
【More Useful Japanese than You Know】
We don't teach Japanese language knowledge but practical Japanese for use outside of the classroom. For this reason, we prepare many opportunities for our students to use Japanese in real-life situations. Events are held twice per week and are open to non-students making it possible to make friends other than your classmates. We also hold 2 gatherings a month at which Japanese people are welcome making it even easier to make Japanese friends. Also, if you choose to stay in a homestay, you can use Japanese every day! We offer an environment which will have you speaking Japanese before you know it making us the perfect school for students with this as a goal!
