A list of the subjects and syllabi are available on the JLSP Website. This program will be offered three times a year in the Summer, Fall and Spring.
This program will also include some social events such as "Kabuki" and/or "Noh", "Sadoh" and/or "Ikebana" ,"Kendo" and some field trips to experience Japanese culture and Japanese history, etc. In your class, some volunteers will be available to assist you in this program. Please join us!
All the participants are required to take a placement test including an interview test after their arrival in Japan and they will be divided into 3 or 4 levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced), depending on their Japanese skills. Any students can apply for this program.
