CURRICULUM
At JaLS we want to help you to make the most of your time in Japan,
rather than simply using textbook material.
We have a uniquely designed, original teaching method and
curriculum specifically suited to those visiting Japan for a short time.
Output-orientated lessons
We believe that the best classroom-based lessons have real and practical application. When students come to Japan for study, we know that they want a unique and immersive experience that they cannot get in their home country.
Japanese lessons
with practical content
To really master the Japanese language, students need to learn practical Japanese. In Hokkaido JaLS, students learn the skills and study topics that are necessary for everyday life, and so they can use class material in their normal lives right away.
Fun lessons filled
with a variety of subjects
We believe that students learn Japanese most efficiently when they are in a fun and interesting class environment. At Hokkaido JaLS, we tackle various subjects and situations within our lesson time, so that students remain engaged in studying.
COLUMN
Welcome to Hokkaido JaLS!
At JaLS GROUP, we love to hear it when students who have visited Japan say, “I had lots of fun here!”
We understand that it’s very rare for people to visit the country and therefore want to help make the most of your time here.
The staff and teachers at JaLS group maintain a very close relationship students to ensure that your time at our schools are relaxing and enjoyable.
In order to help you improve your Japanese language abilities, you will be given many chances to communicate with local Japanese people through programs we have specially created.
It is my hope that everyone who comes to study at our schools has a great time and makes friends – not only with Japanese people, but also with people from around the world.
I hope to see you at a Hokkaido JaLS soon!
