Genki Japanese & Culture School:
Genki Japanese & Culture School (GenkiJACS) was created to be one of the first Japanese Schools in Japan teaching communicative Japanese for everyday life, rather than academic Japanese for higher education. All aspects of our schools in Fukuoka and Tokyo are organized around this central philosophy.

Photo of Japanese Courses for International Students in JapanYou won`t get far in japan without being able to speak the language, but using the special techniques our teachers have developed, you`ll be surprised how easy it is to learn to speak Japanese, and you will be fluent before you know it!

Our Standard Course uses interesting and modern materials and activities to focus on improving your Japanese speaking ability in a way that gives you the flexibility to adapt to new situations. Small group classes offer a full range of useful and exciting activities at a reasonable cost. That is probably why it is our most popular course.

Student Visa Course (1 Year)
The student visa lets you stay in Japan for a year or more, and allows you to work part time while you study. The student visa application is quite difficult, but GenkiJACS can complete most of the process for you and provides support in English for any parts you have to do. We are here to make it easy for you! 

There are, however, certain requirements, including academic and attendance. You have to pass your regular tests and have attendance higher than 80% in order for your visa to be valid.

Start Date: April - Application Deadline: November 20 of the previous year.
