You must have been interested to learn Japanese in Tokyo. And with this decision, perhaps this may be your first time to go to a country like this. For sure, you have gone to some countries in Europe or America, but as for Asian countries, especially like in Japan, this may seem like a new thing for you. I know there are lots of concerns you have in mind right there, and the good part of it is that we can gladly assist you with those concerns.

I’m pretty sure; one of the things you are concerned at when you learn Japanese is the accommodation you will get to avail once you’re already in Tokyo. Yes, I guess everybody is frequently asking which accommodations are provided to particular students who chose to learn foreign languages abroad. Well, to answer such question, each language school has its own type of accommodations that students can choose from. But as for our Japanese language school, you will have two basic accommodations to choose from. Here are the lists.

Homestay with a Japanese-speaking family
Just like typical learners who lean English language in an English-speaking country, Japanese learners can choose to have a homestay option for his accommodation with a family that natively speaks Japanese. This is actually an ideal way to learn more about the Japanese way of life and at the same time it is a great opportunity for the student to practice the Japanese language with native speakers in real-life situations.

How are we going to arrange it for you? Well, we actually have a homestay coordinator that carefully interviews and selects the host families to ensure that the students will be able to learn Japanese language with them. Once they are in the program the coordinator regularly visits them to ensure that high standards are maintained permanently. Don’t worry about thinking you might not avail this accommodation because there will be lesser slots anymore. There are about 160 host families that are currently active in the program.

Dormitory
Yes, this is the most typical one. This is another option for students who wish to be more independent and share their spare time with other students, while at the same time learning Japanese language. If you don’t personally like being in a family you don’t really know then you can choose to avail this option.

There are actually two types of dormitories you can choose from: a private and a school dormitory. The school dormitory offers single and double rooms while the private dormitory offers only private rooms; while the private dormitory allow students to pay a deposit in advance whereas in the school dormitory there is no need to pay a deposit. Each room is equipped with a bed, a desk and a chair. The bathroom, the shower, the kitchen and the laundry facilities, as well as TV are shared with other students.

So, which accommodation is best for you?
