Achieving N2 proficiency in Singapore can be challenging, due to the limited opportunities for Japanese speaking practice. To help you overcome this obstacle and advance your language skills, Lingo has partnered with Kansai College in Japan.
Through this partnership you can continue your Japanese language studies in Osaka and potentially pursue a diploma or degree programme afterwards. We are not only your language school but also your trusted partner in education: travelling to Japan as a complete beginner can be daunting, so we recommend taking our classes until you reach at least the Elementary level before making the move.
A clear pathway to success
The programme lets you immerse yourself in Osaka while pursuing Japanese. Our Japanese university partner provides a comfortable living space with a single dormitory room, with lunch and dinner included, so your basic needs are met and you can focus on your language studies.
Long-term course (1–2 years)
Total fees: S$13,450 nett. The October intake closes at the end of April, with all documents submitted by then, and offers both 1.5-year and 2-year options: the 1.5-year option graduates in March, the best time for university admissions, while the 2-year option graduates in September, when fewer university slots are available. The April intake closes in November of the year before and offers 1-year and 2-year options, both resulting in a March graduation.
Short-term course (3 months)
Total fees: S$1,970.98 nett, with enrolment four times a year. Levels run from pre-intermediate through intermediate and pre-advanced to advanced, Monday to Friday from 9.00am to 2.40pm, five classes a day of fifty minutes each. An applicant should be at least a polytechnic or A-level graduate (12–13 years of education), or hold equivalent credentials of a high school education.
Before you go
The move works best on a spoken foundation. Study with us until you reach at least the Elementary level, then take that Japanese into the immersive environment in Osaka, where you will hear and use the language every day.
