Overview

Tokyo Galaxy offers Japanese for students pursuing further study in Japan as well as learners who want practical or business Japanese. Its course structure makes it possible to compare a short term with a longer academic route. Ask which classes will be available for your placement level before deciding between the regular and preparatory routes. The school is at 1-15-13 Shinkawa in Chuo Ward. Its access guide puts the building about five minutes on foot from Kayabacho Station, served by the Tozai and Hibiya lines. The school moved to Shinkawa in 2015, so check the current address when comparing an accommodation offer or looking up the route. Its student support pages distinguish daily-life counselling from guidance on college applications. That distinction matters if you are deciding between a single term to improve practical Japanese and a longer course leading to further study. Students who already live in Japan can also ask about the short-term intake and continue to commute from their existing accommodation.

Courses

The school lists a ten-week short-term course and separate long-term regular and college preparatory routes. The preparatory route covers additional academic subjects. Some specialised options have their own conditions or fees. Check the timetable, class placement and age or education requirements for the selected intake. The short course develops speaking, listening, reading and writing and lists January, April, July and October intakes. The school describes it as an option for learners already in Japan with eligible residence status. The specialised college-preparation class has its own enrolment conditions.

Fees

The Japanese tuition page lists JPY 220,000 for ten weeks plus JPY 10,000 for supplementary materials, a study subtotal of JPY 230,000. For the first two long-term terms it lists JPY 480,000 for the regular route and JPY 500,000 for the preparatory route, with supplementary materials and designated insurance where applicable billed separately. Housing is additional. In the Japanese long-term tariff, the one-time screening and admission charges are JPY 20,000 and JPY 60,000. The two-term tuition portions are JPY 400,000 for the regular route and JPY 420,000 for the preparatory route. The school bills JPY 10,000 in supplementary materials every six months and describes separate insurance and possible elective charges. For ten weeks the short-course figure already includes the separate JPY 10,000 materials charge in the subtotal above. The Magome dormitory rent, registration and deposit use a separate contract. Confirm which housing agreement applies before combining it with tuition, and budget for commuting separately.

Accommodation

The Magome dormitory has furnished rooms and shared kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities. The short-contract guide lists single-room rent at JPY 65,000 or JPY 74,000 monthly, with JPY 30,000 registration and a JPY 20,000 deposit. The school says JPY 5,000 is retained for maintenance on departure. Confirm minimum stay and availability before using the monthly figures. The dormitory guide places the building about two minutes from Magome Station. It describes about 25 minutes by subway plus seven minutes on foot to school. Rooms have a bed, desk, air conditioning and Wi-Fi. Bills are included in the published rent, and bedding is a separate JPY 9,000 option. Ask which contract applies to your intake, as the school distinguishes short and longer agreements.
