Program Overview

Spend your summer immersed in a new culture and environment! Join our summer camp in Japan.

What makes Ayusa so special? We pride ourselves on teaching Japanese and providing you with a complete cultural immersion experience. You learn the cultural differences between your country and Japan through daily excursions, such as visiting the unique Tokyo districts of Akihabara and Harajuku.

Anyone can provide tourist-like activities. However, unlike other programs, Ayusa offers various opportunities to interact with local people. Volunteer at Japanese elementary schools, make friends at a Japanese high school, and visit Japanese households. Just as Ayusa students from Japan have been able to experience America fully through personal interactions, we now provide you with the chance to do the same in Japan.
