    You can take the same curriculum with the long-term students together. (Except “Career Design”(contents are life guidance and class activities), “individual career guidance,” and “pilot exams” at EHLE)

  2. Improve your Japanese ability higher!

    EHLE’s Short-Term Course corresponds to beginner (JLPT N5) to Advanced level, and
    You can learn all four areas of Japanese skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing.
