Japanese Language Preparation (JFT-Basic)
Preparing to go to Japan for study or work? Learning the Japanese language is not just a requirement—it’s a crucial step toward adjusting to life in Japan, performing well in a new environment, and increasing your chances of success. Our Japanese Language Preparation program is specially designed for beginners who aim to pass the JFT-Basic (Japan Foundation Test), which is essential for the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) visa and often required for student visa applications.
Our course combines practical language skills with test-oriented strategies to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively. It covers all four essential skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Whether you’re a first-time learner or someone with basic exposure, this program will provide the foundation and confidence you need to communicate and thrive in Japan.
What is the JFT-Basic Test?
The JFT-Basic (Japan Foundation Test for Basic Japanese) is a standardized language proficiency test that evaluates whether an individual can communicate in everyday situations in Japanese. It is used primarily for individuals applying under the SSW visa category. Unlike JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test), which is more academic, JFT-Basic focuses on practical, daily-life Japanese skills that workers and residents in Japan need.
The test assesses your skills in four categories:
- Reading: Understanding written instructions, signs, and messages
- Listening: Comprehending conversations and announcements
- Speaking: Answering questions and participating in short conversations
- Grammar & Vocabulary: Basic usage for everyday situations
A passing score in the JFT-Basic exam is mandatory for many SSW job categories. It is recognized by Japanese employers and immigration officials as a valid proof of your language competence.
