Established in Tokyo’s Harajuku district in 1973, Asahi International School has been dedicated to Japanese language education since 1981—accumulating nearly five decades of teaching excellence.
As an accredited member of the Association for the Promotion of Japanese Language Education (Nisshinkyo), we hold the distinguished honor of being one of the first authorized Japanese language schools (Authorization No. 87-1) granted the privilege to issue Certificates of Eligibility for international students.
Asahi International School is located in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture, a thriving urban center with approximately 400,000 residents. The city attracts many international residents due to its excellent transportation network, offering convenient access to central Tokyo via the Joban Line, Tobu Line, and Tsukuba Express. From Kashiwa, popular destinations like Asakusa and Tokyo Disney Resort are just 30 minutes away.
Kashiwa is also recognized as an important academic center, hosting campuses of several prestigious institutions, including The University of Tokyo, Chiba University, Tokyo University of Science, Reitaku University, and Nishogakusha University. This rich educational environment creates an ideal setting for language learning and cultural exchange.
Asahi International School is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Kashiwa Station, in an educational district surrounded by secondary schools and preparatory academies. Most of our students reside within easy commuting distance of the school.
Our faculty consists exclusively of professional Japanese language educators, each combining technical expertise with genuine dedication to student development. The curriculum encompasses both standard Japanese language courses and specialized test-preparation programs, with particular strength in JLPT training.
Many of our instructors bring direct experience from the “JLPT Bible” series (Kanzen Master), having contributed to the development of N1/N2-level grammar and kanji materials. This academic pedigree ensures students receive instruction grounded in test-creating expertise.
At Asahi International School, we maintain a secure campus environment where students can concentrate fully on their Japanese studies. Our limited dormitory accommodations provide convenient housing options within close proximity to the school. Understanding thefinancial challenges of studying abroad, we offer loan-based scholarshipsspecifically designed for students planning to enter Japan’s caregiving sector after graduation.
To further motivate academic achievement, we proudly recognize students who successfully pass either the JLPT N1 or N2 during their studies with a special commendation and incentive award during our graduation ceremony. These initiatives reflect our commitment to supporting students’ educational goals while preparing them for future opportunities in Japan.
