For Busy Travelers

1-Week
Course

Four days of conversation-first Japanese — the basics you actually need, without committing to a full intensive program.

📅 Mon – Thu
🗣️ Conversation First

Course Overview

Four days. The Japanese you actually need.

The 1-Week Course is built for travelers who are short on time but still want to connect with Japan on their own terms. Over four weekday mornings, you'll build the conversational foundation that makes a real difference — ordering at a restaurant, introducing yourself, navigating a convenience store, reading the room.

Lessons are small-group and conversation-first, held in a relaxed Tokyo café environment. No textbooks, no memorization drills — just practical Japanese shaped around your trip.

Mon – Thu, 3 hours/day — mornings only, afternoons free to explore
Absolute beginner friendly — no prior Japanese required
Cultural exchange included — meet local Japanese speakers in every session

Many students upgrade to the Intensive Course — for just +$100, you also get Saturday & Sunday cultural activities (sushi making, shodo, matcha ceremony) included.

Beyond the Classroom

Your classroom is the city

Lessons don't end when you leave the café. Every morning session is designed to be applied immediately.

Café-Based Learning

Sessions are held in local cafés — a relaxed, real-world setting that puts you in the mindset of a conversation, not a classroom.

Immediate Field Practice

After each lesson, you head out into the city with the phrases you just learned. Markets, trains, izakayas — the city is your practice ground.

🤝

Local Connection

Each session includes time with local Japanese speakers — not scripted exchanges, but genuine conversations that build real confidence.
