«The principle of Asia International Language Center is to support students so that they can make their bright future. Founder: Akira Toyama» The school started as a Japanese institute for war-displaced people in China in 1993 first, and even now we do it actively. After that, the school started as a Japanese language school for international students because the number of international students from China increased. We founded language schools in China, Shan Dong Sheng and Fu Jian Sheng and so on, and also in Indonesia, Russia, Vietnam, Laos and other areas. We could have gained various experience through teaching Japanese, and we could establish the strategy about life in Japan, higher education, employment and a practical way which are useful. We think Japanese language school is the place where international students start a new life and need to teach not only Japanese, but the life skills to adapt themselves to social life, and we have the responsibility for sending them to society. For that reason, we think students need to do the self-managed and reflect how to react in society. We practice the way of teaching on extracurricular activities. The reason why we think it is important to study both using their head and using mind their mind and body and experience Japanese culture. Learning Japanese is just a tool, not the final goal of human resource development. We hope everybody who wishes to study in Japan will take courage to challenge new world so that they can make their dreams come true. At last, please see our principle once again and we promise that. At our school, enthusiastic and qualified Japanese teachers teach with a balance of the four key elements of studying (listening, speaking, reading and writing) using interactive materials as powerpoint presentation as well. Thanks to this, AILC students receive scores that are above the average when taking the JLPT. The teachers at our school will all do their best to help you - not only with improving your Japanese language and manners but also things like finding a part-time job, entering a university or other areas where you might need personal guidance. We hold an Information session on entering the Japanese higher education system at our school twice a year. Life at our school is not all about studying. You will get to know a lot about Japanese culture, for example, participating summer festival and making rice cakes with Japanese neighborhood, and experience of Japanese traditional culture and day trip to Mt. Fuji by bus. We hope you will feel Japanese culture in through on skin through fun events. We always support students who do their best and try hard. Come learn Japanese at AILC where there are enthusiastic and experienced teachers, and well-equipped. We will take you to the next step !!

The location is excellent; there are many things to do around the school. I would recommend Coto to others because it focuses on teaching how to converse with others instead of just teaching grammar like other language schools I attended. Staff is... more
