Yokohama International Education Academy

It occupies a dedicated campus in the Nishi-ku district, within walking distance of several train stations and close to the Minato-Mirai waterfront, so students study in a genuinely central urban setting rather than online. Instruction is in Japanese, and the school combines structured classroom teaching with cultural activities and events each term.

Courses

The Academy's main offering is Standard Japanese, divided into eleven levels, which develops reading, writing, speaking and listening with an emphasis on practical communication. It runs both a student-visa track and a track for students holding other visas. Beginner learners receive complimentary kanji lessons, while advanced learners choose from elective classes. Among these electives are Business Japanese, which covers corporate protocols and workplace language; JLPT N1/N2 preparation, which focuses on exam technique; Japanese Culture, exploring traditional and modern themes; and university entrance preparation. A separate Graduate School Preparation Class supports students who already hold a bachelor's degree and possess JLPT N2 or above, with writing and presentation work. A Corporate Program tailors lessons to organisations, held at the company or in the school's classrooms.

Campus

Teaching takes place in the school's own classrooms in Nishi-ku, Yokohama, supported by native Japanese-speaking teachers and English-speaking staff. The campus is a physical study destination with in-person classes scheduled in morning or afternoon sessions on weekdays.
