Lexis Japan

Lexis Japan is operated by Lexis Education, which has been educating students in Australia and Asia since 2004. The Kobe school occupies the entire 9th floor of the Mitsubishi UFJ Shintaku Ginko building, adjacent to the Daimaru Department Store complex in the Motomachi area of Chuo-ku. The campus is approximately 2 minutes' walk from JR and Hankyu Motomachi Stations and 6–7 minutes from the main Sannomiya transport hub. It is located directly across the road from Kobe's Nankinmachi (Chinatown). The school won the STM Star Award for World Language School in 2014.

Courses

Lexis Japan offers both Japanese and English language programs. The Japanese curriculum includes an Intensive Japanese course, JLPT Test Preparation (targeting N5 through N1), and a Teen Summer Program for younger learners. English language classes and teacher training courses are available for those with parallel language interests. The school welcomes students from more than 40 countries annually.

Location

The campus is embedded in Motomachi, one of Kobe's most characterful historic commercial districts, immediately adjacent to the city's Chinatown and the traditional Daimaru shopping complex. The location provides students with an unusually immersive cultural environment within walking distance of the school. The intensive course and exam preparation give adults a choice between broad language development and a specific assessment. The teen summer programme offers a separate format for younger visitors. The central location puts the school within reach of both the Motomachi shopping streets and Kobe’s waterfront during time away from class.
