Educational Philosophy
Through the education of Japanese language and culture, we aim at fostering global citizens
who understand, accept, and love ideas & cultures of people from different countries.
Rather than interactions between countries,
but through interactions between people (民) and people (民) with Japanese language and culture as the catalyst,
we cultivate the mindset of mutual understanding, with the hope that these efforts would contribute to world peace.
This is the educational philosophy of Kyoto Minsai Japanese Language School.
Greetings from the Principal
We established our school in 2001 and named it “MINSAI” (民際) with the hope that, through the education of Japanese language and culture, our students would become global citizens who cherish interactions among people and are able to play important roles on a global stage. And by doing so, we would be able to contribute to world peace.
At Kyoto Minsai, our students come from all over the world. So while studying, they are also able to easily interact with other international students in a multicultural environment, building long-lasting, invaluable friendships in the “Minsai” world.
Our curriculum is organized in a way that meets the demands of the times and, using their professional knowledge gained from various experiences and studies, our teachers devote themselves to education so that our students can enthusiastically study and improve their skills. Graduates of our school have also been active in a wide range of fields in various countries.
Kyoto Minsai is located in a quiet environment where one can fully experience the four seasons. A long, beautiful row of cherry blossom trees run along the Tenjingawa river in front of our Tenjingawa Campus. This row of trees bloom in spring and turn bright red in autumn.
We look forward to all of our students’ successes. At the same time, our hope is that all of our students, teachers, and staff alike are able to set goals, to rise to challenges, to have a determination not to give up until the end, and to strive to be global citizens who embody the “Minsai” spirit.
