Dash Co., Ltd. is the operating organization behind the Taiwan Study Support Center and the Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning. Through these two educational organizations, we support Japanese high school students who are preparing to pursue higher education at universities in Taiwan.
Taiwan Study Support Center provides information and guidance related to university selection, application procedures, pre-departure preparation, and student life after enrollment. Since 2010, approximately 3000 students have received support through its programs. The Center also works closely with Japanese high schools and universities in Taiwan to promote educational exchange and provide students and their families with accurate information about studying in Taiwan.
Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning provides Mandarin and English language education for students preparing to enter Taiwanese universities. It also handles practical preparations such as student orientations, the organization of application documents, and assistance with visa-related documentation.

Dash Co., Ltd. provides the organizational and administrative foundation for these educational activities. Their aim is not simply to complete procedures on behalf of students, but to guide them toward becoming independent, responsible, and internationally minded individuals. Interns will participate in either language education and student activities or international student administration, gaining practical experience in education, intercultural communication, student guidance, and the coordination of Japan–Taiwan educational programs.

Brief Introduction of the Department

【Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning – Teaching department】

We provide Mandarin and English language education for Japanese high school students preparing to study at universities in Taiwan. Many of our students begin studying Mandarin only after deciding to pursue higher education in Taiwan, so our programs are designed not only to improve their language skills but also to prepare them for the academic and cultural challenges of studying abroad.

The department conducts regular language classes, online learning activities, intensive training programs and student development activities. We place importance on helping students become more independent, responsible, and confident in communicating across cultures. In addition to language instruction, students learn about Taiwanese society, university life, study habits, and the attitudes expected of international students.

Interns will work alongside experienced instructors and staff members to support classes and student activities. They will observe how Japanese students learn Mandarin and English, assist with the preparation of educational materials, and contribute their own perspectives as university students from Taiwan. Through this experience, interns will develop practical skills in language education, intercultural communication, student guidance, and educational program management.

【Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning – Student Support and Administration Department】

The Student Support and Administration Department supports Japanese students who are preparing to enter universities in Taiwan.

It role is to ensure that students understand the required procedures, complete their documents accurately, and meet important deadlines.
