Thank you for your interest in our Japanese lesson :)
In compliance with the recent Covid-19 directives from the government, please take note of the following updates.
Our school aims to resume back physical classes when the current pandemic situation settles down. This is for safety of our students with the abrupt rising cases in the recent days. Physical classes may commence according to the start of the respective course’s new term from early October. Your teacher will keep you updated.
At Tomo, both our Physical and Online classes are highly interactive and conversational. In fact, there are plenty of chances for our students to practice their Japanese in class. We would like to encourage our students to join our online classes first and until we resume back lessons in physical classroom. We will mail the textbook to your doorsteps via tracking courier.
Our students’ safety is our school’s top priority and we also ensure to provide a quality education for our students. For more details, we will update our students nearer to date when there’s more information released by the government.
Stay safe!

Tomo Japanese Language School adopts a systematic course progression to ensure that you are well-equipped to move from one level to the next.
The Course Progression chart shows the FIVE levels of proficiency, from Beginner (totally new learners) to Advanced, available at our school, a robust approach which will keep your progress in check. Upon the completion of every level, not only can you start to speak, read and write like a Japanese; you will also be well-equipped to take the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, better known as JLPT. This is a certification issued by the Japan Foundation and Japan Educational Exchanges and Services to assess and certify the Japanese Language proficiency of those whose native language is not Japanese.
For the course description of each level, please click here.
A free placement evaluation will be done by Tomo Japanese Language School prior to your registration so that you can join the appropriate class. However, you are allowed to request to switch to a level you deem more suitable for you during the course of your study.
After a level is completed, the batch of students will progress to the next level in the same timeslot (ie, the class schedule is subjected to change).
Please note that you would need to keep to attending the same class (day of the week and time) during the term that you sign up for. For instance, if you have signed up for Basic Course that is conducted on Friday, even though there's another Basic Course conducted on Saturday, you are not allowed to attend the Saturday class at your discretion. However, should you require a special arrangement, please talk to your teacher in advance
Make up lesson will be offered to students of Beginner, Basic and Intermediate courses who miss a class, subjected to the discretion of your teacher.
