Announce

We have developed an e-Learning system for the examination of Japanese university admission (EJU). EJU is now held by Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO). The materials for the examination in the system are used by the permission of the copyright from JASSO.

The test in Japanese as a Foreign Language consists of reading comprehension, listening comprehension, and listening and reading comprehension. Please refer the EJU pages.

If your students access the system, you can use the examination scores for assessment or achievement in your class.
