About Us
ABK AOTS DOSOKAI Tamil Nadu centre was started in the year 1973 by Mr M R Ranganathan,
the Founder Chairman. His vast experience with Japanese clients and his in-depth understanding of the Japanese culture and tradition helped in the rapid growth of the organisation.
ABK AOTS DOSOKAI, Japanese Language school, Bangalore Chapter was started on the 29th of May 2017. This is the first franchise outside of Tamil Nadu. We work closely with the Consulate General of Japan, Bengaluru and we are also an active member of Indo Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industries, Bengaluru.
Every language has its beauty and tradition and the Japanese language has an added advantage of having a lot of similarities with Indian languages and culture.
Our students are a heterogeneous mix of working professionals, students, homemakers, and retired people, with the age group ranging from 10 to 70.


The classes are conducted by a team of skillful and dedicated teachers, trained by the Japan Foundation. We offer online and classroom sessions both on weekdays and weekends, as per the convenience of the students. Our online classes are particularly popular amongst professionals and students outside India.
We specialize in Fast Track courses and short-term conversational courses, which are preferred by people who need to make short-duration visits to Japan on official engagements.
The books and course material used are those prescribed by the Japan Foundation for JLPT. Our teaching methods focus on improving the Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing skills (LSRW) of students. The various tools used for teaching include PPTs, flashcards for Kanji, Kanji games, roleplays, and audio-visual aids. These, along with a well-equipped library, help enhance the overall language proficiency of students.
We conduct periodical tests for assessments. Our institute specializes in intensive revision and mock tests, which go a long way in boosting students’ confidence before the exams and attain good scores.

Student Testimonials
Hear from our students about their journey with us real stories of learning, growth, and cultural immersion.
I love to study under Uma sensei as she always motivates us.
Her revision material at the end of course IS very helpful. I believe that is a clincher to clear the exam. She puts efforts to teach even every single kotoba, kanji.
I acquired so much interest in Kanji because of Uma sensei. She does the teaching with so much involvement.
It has been an honor to be her student.
I thank ABK AOTS for giving me this opportunity to learn Japanese under Uma sensei

Murali
JLPT N4 – pursuing N3 with ABKAOTS
I have really enjoyed learning Japanese with ABK AOTS. I’ve always wanted to learn Japanese but taking a language class was challenging with my schedule.
However, ABK AOTS has changed that. I’m a busy working person and I like the program is self-guided and accessible 24/7 via skype. I’m able to go with my own pace and repeat the lessons as needed to ensure my comprehension before moving to another lesson.
Uma Sensei’s teaching methods are very engaging and fun!
Her cultural lessons enhance the learning experience and you can feel the warmth and love that sensei has for the Japanese language.
She has a unique talent for making even the most complicated grammatical concepts very simple to understand.
ABK AOTS is the perfect solution to learn Japanese for busy people in Bangalore or anywhere.
