The Difference

Learn the way Japan actually speaks — and what each level unlocks.

Most Indian Japanese institutes teach every level with Indian trainers. That works for grammar — but it doesn't prepare you for real Japan: the intonation, the keigo, the pauses, the business etiquette.

At iTokyo, every level from N4 onwards is taught by a native Japanese trainer. You won't just pass JLPT — you'll walk into a Japanese office, classroom, or shop, and be understood.

Transparent note: N5 Foundation is taught by an Indian trainer — intentional. Beginners benefit from grammar bridges in their first language. Full native immersion starts at N4.

The N4 native trainer made all the difference. I cleared N3 in one try and now I'm studying at a university in Tokyo. iTokyo handled my entire visa — I didn't deal with a single embassy form myself.

I'm from Delhi — did the entire course online. The weekend batch worked around my college. Passed N2. Got placed through NEX-GEN in a Japanese IT company in Osaka. Earning in yen now.

Zero Japanese when I started. Three months to N5, then UNITAS picked me up. The 6-month timeline they promise is real. The team answers on WhatsApp at 11 PM if you're stuck.

Before you commit

Questions, answered straight.

Do I need to know Japanese to study in Japan?
Yes — UNITAS requires minimum N5 Japanese to apply. We train you to N5 in 3 months at iTokyo, then directly handle your UNITAS application and full 16-stage visa journey. Total timeline: ~6 months from zero Japanese to boarding the flight.
Are your trainers really native Japanese?
Yes — from N4 onwards, every trainer is native Japanese. We're transparent: our N5 Foundation is taught by an Indian trainer because grammar bridges in your first language help absolute beginners. Native immersion starts from N4 and continues through N1.
Can I learn from any city in India?
Yes. Our online live classes plus LMS access serve students pan-India. Study-in-Japan and Japan Placement also accept students from any Indian state — visa consulate routing is handled based on your region (Tamil Nadu → Chennai, North → Delhi, West → Mumbai, East → Kolkata, Karnataka/AP/Telangana → Bengaluru).
What if my COE application is rejected?
One free re-application — fully covered by our end-to-end service. Rejections are rare: our last 4 intakes have had 100% COE success. Historical rejection rate since 2012 is under 3%.
How much does it cost?
Language courses range from self-paced LMS to full offline JLPT with native trainers. Study in Japan is a personalised 16-stage pipeline tailored to your profile, goals, and chosen UNITAS campus. Sign up free to book your counselling →
What's NEX-GEN and how does placement work?
NEX-GEN Corporation is our sister company in Tokyo. They source Japanese employers across IT, bilingual, interpreter, manufacturing, hospitality, and caregiver roles. Once you clear your target JLPT level (usually N3+), you enter the placement pipeline: interview prep, employer matching, visa support, relocation. 230+ placed since 2012.
Do you offer weekend or evening batches?
Yes. N5 Weekend and N5 Evening batches are designed for working professionals and college students. All levels offer online live options with recorded replays for busy schedules.

Your Japan journey starts with one free lesson.
