At Sakura, we don't just teach you grammar; we teach you the Arubaito Keigo (polite Japanese for work). This helps our students get jobs that pay ¥1,200+ per hour instead of the minimum wage.

⚠️ Please Note: The figures mentioned above are average estimates based on a typical student lifestyle in 2026. Your actual expenses will vary depending on:

  • Location: Living in central Tokyo or Osaka is more expensive than regional cities like Fukuoka, Sendai, or Okinawa.

  • Lifestyle: Your personal spending habits on shopping, eating out, and travel will determine your final budget.

  • Saving Goals: Ultimately, it depends on you—how much you choose to spend and how much you want to save for your future.

⚠️ विशेष ध्यान दिनुहोस्: माथि उल्लेखित खर्चहरू एक सामान्य विद्यार्थीको औसत जीवनशैलीमा आधारित अनुमानित विवरण मात्र हुन्। तपाईँको वास्तविक खर्च निम्न कुराहरूमा निर्भर गर्दछ:

  • शहरको छनोट: टोकियो वा ओसाका जस्ता ठूला शहरहरूमा बस्दा, फुकुओका वा सेन्डाई जस्ता ठाउँहरूको तुलनामा खर्च बढी हुन सक्छ।

  • जीवनशैली: तपाईँको व्यक्तिगत बानी, घुमफिर र खानपानको शैलीले तपाईँको बजेट निर्धारण गर्नेछ।

  • बचत गर्ने लक्ष्य: अन्त्यमा, यो तपाईँमा नै निर्भर गर्दछ—तपाईँ कति खर्च गर्न चाहनुहुन्छ र आफ्नो भविष्यका लागि कति बचत गर्न चाहनुहुन्छ।
