In-person Lesson Campaign

Students who sign up between November 1 to December 19 for an 8 or 20-week intensive Japanese lesson will automatically receive a 10% discount. 

• 8-week intensive course: From ¥272,000 to ¥244,800
• 20-week intensive course: From ¥600,000 to ¥540,000

What is an Intensive Course?

Coto Academy’s intensive course is a structured, 5-day-a-week program designed for students who want to make rapid progress. Students study 3 hours per day, Monday to Friday, in a schedule similar to a long-term Japanese language school.

Each term lasts around 28 to 30 days, and students who pass their level can continue to the next term.

The course features a well-balanced curriculum covering all key aspects of the Japanese language: reading, vocabulary, listening, grammar, and kanji. It is perfect for serious learners who want to fast-track their learning progress. 

Should I Choose the 8-Week or 20-Week Course?

The 20-week Intensive Course is ideal for students with a clear, long-term goal in their Japanese learning journey. This 6+ month program provides greater depth, consistency, and steady progress. Many students advance from beginner to intermediate, or intermediate to advanced, during this time.

The 8-week Intensive Course is perfect for short-term visitors or those who want to experience intensive learning before committing to a longer program.

If you’re planning to make Japanese study a consistent part of your new year, we highly recommend starting with the 20-week course, as it’s the more economical option in the long run.

What is Coto Academy’s Part-time Japanese Lesson?

Coto Academy’s part-time Japanese course is designed for flexibility. Think of it like your ClassPass for Japanese lessons!

You purchase a lesson package (ranging from 16 to 96 lessons) and use your credits to join the classes you want, whenever it’s convenient for you. This means you can attend recurring part-time lessons every week or drop in whenever your schedule allows.

Classes are held once or twice a week, with each lesson lasting 50 minutes (or two consecutive 50-minute sessions for those taking double lessons).

Most classes take place in the evening (19:10–21:00) and on Saturdays, though some are also available in the morning or daytime, depending on student demand. Each class includes a 10-minute break every 50 minutes.

This low-commitment system is perfect for learners who value flexibility but still want to make consistent progress in Japanese.

The part-time Japanese course also follows a focused, skill-based curriculum, offering over 16 different courses from beginner to advanced levels. Each course targets a specific aspect of Japanese, such as grammar, conversation practice, conjugation drills, or business Japanese.

Terms and Conditions 

• Applicable to online part-time lesson packages at Coto Academy Minato.

How Does Lesson Points Work?

Coto Online is Coto Academy’s fully online learning platform, where you can buy points, manage your lessons, and book classes, all in one place.

Instead of purchasing individual lessons, you buy lesson points, giving you the flexibility to choose between group and private lessons. Each lesson type requires a set number of points:

Lesson Type	Duration	Points Required
Private Lesson	50 minutes	4 points
Group Lesson	50 minutes	2 points
Group Lesson	100 minutes	4 points

This point-based system offers maximum flexibility, allowing you to learn at your own pace, choose your preferred lesson types, and fit Japanese study seamlessly into your schedule — anywhere, anytime. 

Terms and Conditions

• Points need to be purchased from the Coto Online Platform. If you have trouble creating an online account and purchasing points, send us an inquiry.
• Corporate payments not accepted.
• Points can’t be combined with other points or extended.
