Combi: Group+Indiv Japanese courses in Kyoto from 86980¥ for 1 week
Reviews by former students who attended a Combi: Group+Indiv course in Kyoto
Small groups, very international. Nice support team that really does its best to connect everyone. (There were also Japanese who study English, who were paired with us, who study the other way).
The private lessons are highly recommended by the way. I didn't find the lessons themselves very interesting (see below), The private lessons were intensive, but they were exactly right. They were also flexible: part of the time it was just about what I had done or what was on my mind.
In the lessons, practically only Japanese was spoken at full speed. That alone, despite the negative points below, was good. Difficult at the beginning, "natural" at the end.

I am so glad that I chose this school! I felt so well looked after and welcome here. Both the teachers and the staff were fully committed to their work every day and I have never had such a great learning environment, learnt so much and had so much fun. The immersive method is used, i.e. everything is in Japanese, but if you really don't understand something, you can of course get by with English. I enjoyed being there every day, as I said I learnt an incredible amount (standard course + private lessons), made great friends and am already planning to come back. I can recommend the school 100 per cent!

I am very impressed with the dedication and passion of the teachers to be sure that the students would be as successful as possible. School administrators were equally helpful and supportive.
I have the highest regards for JaLS Kyoto.
