About Our Classroom

Our Educational Philosophy 鉛筆

"Every Child Is a Genius."

We believe every child is born with unlimited potential. To nurture this brilliance, a strong foundation in both emotional development and language is essential.
At our Japanese language classes, we teach core subjects such as language arts and math in Japanese, helping students develop logical thinking, expressive skills, and emotional depth.

Our approach goes beyond language learning. By exploring Japanese culture, history, and etiquette, children gain a deeper appreciation of diverse values and learn to respect others. This helps them build their own identity and prepares them to engage confidently in a global society.

We hope each child will cherish their individuality while embracing different cultures and ideas—and grow into individuals who can thrive on the world stage.

Our Teaching Approach 鉛筆

We follow Japan’s official national curriculum (set by the Ministry of Education), offering personalized instruction tailored to each student’s pace and ability.

Textbooks

We use the 2020 editions of Mitsumura Tosho (for Japanese language) and Tokyo Shuppan (for math). Supplementary workbooks and materials are also provided as needed.

Pre-K Class (Age 5 and up)

Children develop motor skills and basic academic foundations such as Hiragana, Katakana, numbers, and simple arithmetic. They also enjoy cultural exchanges with Japanese preschools through online lessons, singing songs, and experiencing Japanese traditions.

Grades 1–6: Learning Plans

Message from the Director 鉛筆

Hello and welcome to our website.
At our school, we believe that “Every child is a genius.” Our goal is to help each child unlock their full potential.

By learning subjects such as language arts and math in Japanese, students not only develop academic skills, but also grow in cultural understanding and global awareness through lessons on Japanese history, etiquette, and customs.

In today’s diverse world, the ability to understand and respect different values is more important than ever. We hope to empower children to embrace their identities and grow into confident, compassionate, and globally-minded individuals.

We appreciate your continued support and understanding.
