Message from the Directors

“Hello, everyone. My name is Toru Hoshi, and I am the Principal of Kyoto Language Academy. Our school opened in April 2025, but we are not simply content with being located in the historic and culturally rich city of Kyoto. Unlike Japanese language schools in major metropolitan areas, we strive to create a truly unique learning experience that can only be found in Kyoto.”
Toru HoshiPrincipal, Kyoto Language Academy
