School Features
Practical Japanese & Career Path Classes
In these classes, we enhance practical Japanese communication skills while implementing instruction tailored to each student’s desired career path.
Practical Japanese
This class enhances practical communication skills through various tasks involving “listening,” “reading,” “speaking (interaction and presentation),” and “writing.” Through this process, students also carefully learn the linguistic knowledge (vocabulary, grammar, and kanji) necessary for tasks one by one, developing the language abilities that support these activities.
Career Path Classes
Although we simply say “pursuing higher education,” the abilities required during entrance exams and after enrollment differ depending on each desired path—whether university, graduate school, or vocational school. Career Path Classes are designed to help students acquire the necessary skills according to their desired career paths. In the first year, students develop their Japanese expression skills with a focus on conveying their experiences and opinions to others. They also learn fundamental knowledge about career path selection in Japan. In the second year, purpose-specific classes are organized according to each desired career path, with instruction focused on the skills required for academic advancement and after enrollment. By connecting with peers who share the same dreams and progressing together, students cultivate the ability to learn independently and walk their own path.
Reaching Planner
Kyoshin’s original “Reaching” is a habit-forming tool for achieving goals. At KLA, we utilize the Reaching Student Planner and incorporate three steps—”Set your goals,” “Take action,” and “Reflect”—into daily class time. Through this initiative, we cultivate each individual’s ability to learn and act independently toward realizing their dreams. Specifically, students engage in the following steps during class:
- Reaching Goal Setting: At the beginning of each month, students set their monthly goals toward their dreams.
- Routine Check: Students decide what to do daily to achieve their goals and check it every day.
- Monthly Results and Reflection: At the end of the month, students review their routine checks and write their reflections.

School Activities
Teaching Staff
Kyoto is an international city where people from all over the world come together, and it is also a city of students. Here, you can build new “connections” with international students from around the world as well as with Japanese students. It is also a place where you can experience traditional Japanese culture in your daily life, allowing you to gain a deeper understanding of Japan.
KLA Kyoto Chuo School is located in the very heart of Kyoto.
We view our classrooms and school, where students from diverse countries and regions come together to learn, as a “small international community.” Through dialogue and interaction within this community, students learn Japanese while developing a deeper understanding of different cultures and perspectives.
We also encourage students to expand their activities beyond the classroom and actively engage in dialogue and interaction with the local community and Japanese society.
Through their experiences and interactions, we aim to help each student develop respect for diversity and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. Going beyond the framework of Japanese language education, everyone at KLA Kyoto Chuo School is here to support you in your growth as an individual.
