Volunteer's Room Japanese Class

Japanese language classes are held for foreigners living in the Kyoto area.

Revision of the fee for Volunteer's Room Japanese Class at kokoka.

 

kokoka, Kyoto City International Foundation has been providing "Volunteer's Room Japanese Class", covering the expenses for the costs of operating it including copies of materials for learners and maintenance of the volunteer room. However, due to increase of the energy bill in these days, kokoka is facing difficulty coping with it. In this regard, we would like to revise the participation fee for Volunteer Room's Japanese class to keep providing stable class operation and the place for networking with Japanese tutors and other students.
