GATEWAY へ ようこそ
WELCOME TO GATEWAY
Japanese Language & Culture
The trademark of Gateway is “Torii” which is a traditional Japanese gate most commonly found at the entrance of a Shinto shrine.
It marks the transition from this world to the sacred world. As the gate offers you an entrance to a different world, it is our aim to create a doorway to Japanese language and culture and to be the guide to this new world, helping you to start walking by yourself.
We want you to experience and enjoy a deeper understanding of Japanese language and culture.
– Hisami Kimura, founder of Gateway Japanese
