The advantage of Hokkaido in Winter

Winter is a wonderful time to visit Sapporo. The streets are covered in mountains of beautiful snow, allowing for many exciting winter activities such as skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing, all within the city limits. After, enjoy a soak in one of the many famous hot springs. From February, the largest Snow Festival in Japan is held, The Sapporo Snow Festival. People from all around the world come to see the giant sculptures carved in snow, and enjoy the winter activities and food. Even in winter, you can conveniently get around the city via the underground subway system, so you won’t miss any of the winter excitement!

POINTS

There are many unique reasons that JaLS courses are
perfect for your Japanese learning needs.

Small Class
Sizes

Because we limit our class sizes to a maximum of 8 students per teacher, you are guaranteed to get the care and attention that you need to improve your Japanese skills quickly and intensively.

Flexible Start
Dates

Because of our flexible style, regardless of your level, you can begin on any Monday and graduate on any Friday. You can even study for as little as 1-week and make the most of your time in Japan.

Extra-Curricular
Activities

Because of our full and active school community, there are plenty of activities and chances to make local Japanese friends and enjoy your life in Japan.

In order to improve your Japanese conversational skills within a short period of time, we focus on three main areas – practice, speak and use! The classes at Hokkaido JaLS are designed for a maximum of 8 people in each class. This way, our teachers are able to coach our students individually, giving you plenty of chance to clarify doubts and practice Japanese. After class, students are encouraged to use Japanese actively out of school and on the streets of Sapporo!

It’s a great way for you to practice Japanese and make new friends!

We strongly encourage our short-term students to participate in the after-class activities. By speaking to our volunteers in Japanese, your language skills will advance rapidly and you will be able to enjoy speaking Japanese!
