Elective Classes
Each student has different level of Japanese proficiency and needs. To help students improve their Japanese skills effectively, Toyo Language School offers elective classes. After clarifying your current situation through counselling, you will work with your My Teacher to decide which areas to focus on, choosing from five categories and fifty items.
Career Preparation
Students who have acquired a certain level of basic Japanese begin to prepare for their individual career plans. Highly specialized teachers for each career path are supporting students in achieving their individual goals.

Reviewing!
The content covered in the A1 and A2 levels has a significant impact on later learning. Students who feel uncertain about the material they’ve learned in the previous semester or don’t know what to review should actively choose these classes. It is possible for students to focus on the most important points for review due to the structure’s design.
