GenkiJACS in Kyoto: learning Japanese in the heart of the Gion Matsuri district

GenkiJACS Kyoto is a few minutes from Shijo station, in the heart of the famous Gion Matsuri area, and shares its building with Daiichi Gakuin high school.

Easy immersion in local life

Kyoto station is about 10 minutes away by metro, and Kiyomizu-dera temple is a 25-minute walk — a central location for exploring the city outside class.

A modern, well-organised place to study

Lessons focus on speaking, practical Japanese and real communication, with a maximum of 8 students per class. The school has 12 modern classrooms and two common areas, with free wifi, a games console, a projector in every classroom, a manga library and a coffee/tea corner.

Why choose this school?

The school belongs to the GenkiJACS network, accredited by the International Association of Language Centres (IALC) — the third Japanese school ever accepted, and one of only two still members today —, recognised by the Swedish CSN, voted best language school every year from 2009 to 2021 (World Language Schools category in 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020/2021), and recognised by several universities for credit transfer.
