Excellent place to learn Japanese, I managed to pass my JLPT level 4 within half a year and JLPT 3 a year later. I signed up to practice Japanese, especially grammar and writing longer sentence. Great teachers!

Dennis Ong

Attended the intensive course for 4 months and totally loved it! Love the classmates as all are either working adults or housewives. Content of the class is relevant to encounter daily life in Tokyo and there are plenty of outside-class events..

Adinda Sabila

Very professional and motivating teachers!! Useful for Japanese conversation but also for passing JLPT exams. Highly recommended!
