Program Philosophy
Being able to speak Japanese
and earning trust in Japan are two different things.
Business Japanese is not simply about using keigo (honorific language).
It is the linguistic ability to understand Japan's decision-making processes.
Precisely because we live in an age of AI translation,
we cultivate three essential abilities together:
・Reading context
・Understanding unspoken atmospheres
・Interpreting indirect expressions
Our goal is to develop
"Professionals who can deliver results in Japanese."
