Description
Learning Japanese abroad in Kanazawa, Japan is one of many language immersion programs offered by AmeriSpan. Somewhere between the elegant formality of Japanese manners and the candid, sometimes boisterous exchanges that take place over a few drinks, between the sanitized shopping malls and the unexpected rural festivals, everyone finds their own vision of Japan. Whether you end up taking photos of a reproduction Eiffel Tower, surfing an indoor wave, shacking up in a love hotel, or kipping down in a capsule, you will do best to come with an open mind and be prepared for surprise.
Learn Japanese Language in Japan:
Kanazawa is located on the coast of Honshu, Japan's main island. Not only is Kanazawa's natural scenery a colorful delight year-round, but every seasonal change is so carefully celebrated in traditional cuisine, decor, and yearly events, that one comes to feel as if there are many more than four seasons. It is a modern city, even though it was built in the 15th century, and is one of Japans foremost castle towns. The city boasts many places of interest, such as the splendid Kenrokuen, known as one of the three most beautiful gardens in Japan, and lshikaw a-mon, the commanding gate to the old castle grounds.

Located in the city center, a few minutes walk to the main train station, the Yokoyasue-Cho shopping area, and the Omicho Market. 5 classrooms, lecture room, quiet study room, and student leisure area.

AmeriSpan Study Abroad's Mission Statement
Our mantra is "Every Language, Every Culture, Everywhere." AmeriSpan Study Abroad has over 15 years experience and over 30,000 past participants. Our staff has three passions: language, culture, and travel. Individually and as a group, we have accumulated experiences and knowledge related to these passions. AmeriSpan's staff has traveled to more than 65 countries, every continent except Antarctica, speak 10 languages, and we are happy to share this enormous amount of relevant knowledge with you. Every staff member has studied and/or lived abroad for extended periods of time. We are neither a language school nor a travel agent, we're a hybrid of the two: a language travel organization. AmeriSpan has evaluated hundreds of schools, host families and destinations to determine which programs to offer, and our independence allows us to give you unbiased evaluations of these programs. Our pledge to our participants is to make going abroad 'worry-free'. There is no risk in choosing an AmeriSpan program because you'll get the best program, best price and can cancel for any reason and get a full refund on every dollar we have received for your program.
