If the idea of studying Japanese in Tokyo is exciting for you, but also intimidating due to the idea of moving to such a large and hectic foreign city, then make life easier for yourself by living and studying with your teacher on Study & Live in your Teacher's Home’s home tuition programme might be the ideal solution.

Tokyo is one of the largest cities in the world, but with the help of your host family you will learn the very best ways to move around this giant city, and also where to go to find anything that you’re looking for - because no matter what it is, Tokyo is sure to have it somewhere. If you’re looking for a culture that celebrates anime, video games, and manga then this is the place for you - but there is so much more than that.

All of your meals will be provided by your hosts on this full-board programme. Study & Live in your Teacher's Home asks that guests contact their Local Organisers working in Tokyo to resolve any issues they may experience during the programme.

FAQ about Study & Live in your Teacher's Home, Tokyo

I am looking for a language course in Tokyo. Can I come with my parent/friend/partner? Do they have to take classes?
“Yes, you can come with someone. You can come with a friend that has the same level and wants to take the course with you. You will then benefit from a 20% reduction each. If the accompanying person does not want to take the course, they will need pay for their stay. Students aged 4 or over get a 20% reduction off the price of the programme. Children under 4 years old get a 75% reduction.”
Home Language International, from Home Language International - Apr 17, 2025
When do the Japanese classes take place?
“That usually depends on the programme, but classes are normally from Monday to Friday. There are generally no classes during the weekend, other than activities. This does depend on the host. ”
Home Language International, from Home Language International - Apr 17, 2025
What happens if I have special dietary requirements?
“You should let us know in advance to make sure these requirements are met. There will be a charge that will vary depending on the city.”
Home Language International, from Home Language International - Apr 17, 2025
Is it possible to book a course without taking the accommodation option?
“If you have already organised your own accommodation and would like to receive lessons only, you must stay in a large town offered by HLI and choose a minimum of 10 hours language lessons per week. A supplement for the teacher’s transport may be charged.”
