Company Mission

The core principle of an International Language House education is to provide knowledge and direction for our students to one day become independent global citizens. Here in Japan, we have many international schools where the culture stands in stark contrast with the rest of the country. Therefore, our mission is to help children develop their personality and intelligence in both Japanese and English, and in doing so fully recognizing the beauty of Japanese as a language and as a culture. It is our mission to help raise our students with the knowledge and power to make positive impacts in our ever-changing global society. At the International Language House, we design a variety of programs to meet the needs of our clients. Our unique English programs are designed to draw attention and provide education in a fun way through sports, games, performing arts, and culture. From our numerous international teachers, we include world cultures that only our teachers can share with their students. We wish to provide our clients with effective communication tools and enable them to see, listen, and share on an international scale. Click here to Learn More

If I had to summarize ILH in one word, it would be: opportunities. Whether it’s through music, sports or education, ILH is working towards creating a community that gathers people around one common tool: the English Language.Working at ILH gave me tremendous opportunities: meeting people from different cultures and backgrounds but also to build up my career in ways that I didn’t expect.

Dispatch Teacher & Mentor

Working as a dispatch teacher I have had the opportunity of sharing many rewarding and interesting moments with kids. I’ve realized how much love and happiness we can give them with a simple song or a game when we are enjoying that time with them. It is amazing how much they give in return with appreciation and smiles. One of the top experiences living in Japan has been meeting kids from different backgrounds, ages, with unique personalities. On top of that, learning that they all just want to learn and have fun – it is very inspiring.
