KITAKYUSHU GLOBAL GATEWAY

A learning facility where students learn about their relationship with the world through hands-on English experiences

From Kitakyushu to the World: An English Immersion Experience That Shapes Children’s Futures.

We opened in 2022 as Western Japan’s first experiential English learning facility.

We are the only facility in Western Japan where children can experience and learn English in an international atmosphere right here in Japan. Step away from the usual school or classroom setting and immerse yourself in a world where only English is spoken. We provide an environment that fosters a spirit of challenge through trial and error, sparking a newfound enthusiasm for learning.

5 Attractions

We have five attractions available. You will split into groups and experience two of the five themed attractions. Once you step inside the facility, it’s like being abroad! You’ll learn practical English by actually interacting with objects.This program lets you enjoy learning in a game-like setting by completing missions in English based on different scenarios.
After experiencing the attraction, we conduct a variety of learning activities tailored to each participant’s level in a separate room, including sessions on the SDGs and One Health, debates, and escape rooms.

KGG Studio

An interactive zone designed to resemble a New York TV station. Divided into three booths, participants can step into the shoes of a news anchor, talk show host, or reporter and broadcast live in English.

KGG Airlines

StarFlyer is the leading airline in Kitakyushu. Inside the cabin, modeled after one of its aircraft, you’ll experience a night flight. You’ll be able to observe and learn about the time differences between Japan and other countries firsthand.

KGG Restaurant

While gazing out at the Australian beach, you can learn how to order in English and experience service from international staff using menus and realistic food samples.

KGG Market

This interactive zone is designed to resemble a British grocery market. Here, you can use KGG currency to learn English phrases and conversations for shopping with foreign staff.
