Unitas
The Unitas Japanese Language School, with campuses in Kofu (Yamanashi Prefecture) and Tokyo, is part of the Teikyo University Group and has been offering Japanese language instruction to students from over 40 countries for more than 50 years. The lessons are practical and communication-oriented: In small to medium-sized classes, experienced teachers combine speaking, listening, reading, and writing into a clearly structured learning path, so you can confidently apply what you’ve learned in daily life. A placement test before the course ensures you start at the appropriate level; depending on your goals, you can choose between short-term and long-term programs, including support with visa applications for longer stays. Both locations offer different learning environment focuses: The Kofu campus provides a tranquil setting close to nature – ideal if you want to concentrate on your studies and quickly gain confidence in a relaxed daily routine. The Tokyo campus is situated in an urban environment with excellent transport links and diverse cultural offerings; here, what you learn in class can be directly applied to city life. Supplementary activities and elective modules (e.g., for JLPT preparation) help you make continuous progress – from beginner to advanced topics.

About the location
Learn Japanese amidst the beauty of Japanese nature!
Kofu, Yamanashi
Kofu offers the best of both worlds: life away from Japan’s megacities without the drawbacks of a small town. With about 190,000 residents, it’s anything but tiny. Downtown has a few high-rises, yet the city never feels boxed in—forests and mountains are just a short drive away. It’s easy to slip out for a hike or a quiet walk not only on weekends but even on weekday afternoons after class.
