    Overview

    Improve your Japanese significantly as you live and study in this unique and wonderful culture.

    A land of four main islands (and more than 6,000 smaller ones), Japan has beautiful natural views as well as vibrant mega-cities. It also boasts amazing cuisine such as sushi, ramen, and sweet curry; efficient and reliable public transportation; and friendly locals. Five days a week, you will experience life at a public or private high school, taking classes taught in Japanese. Fully immersed in teen life, lingo, and both traditional and pop culture, you will make huge strides in language proficiency before you know it. On weekends, enjoy the company of your homestay by doing things like playing games, eating delicious home-cooked food, and visiting local shrines and temples. Whether you are placed in Kyoto or Tokyo or the surrounding suburbs, you will discover the rich culture and history that Japan has to offer, both in class and through your own personal explorations. You will advance your Japanese language skills through intensive study and casual conversation, and build practical, real-world skills that will serve you in college and beyond.
