In our Playschool class for children 1.4 to 3 years old, children can become accustomed to interacting in English by playing and spending time with there class teachers and friends. The more often a child attends class, the better the results tend to be, and there is a natural difference between a student attending 2 days a week and a student attending 5 days a week. In our Preschool program for 3 to 6 year olds, the students now are using only English so they can make rapid progress in their reading and writing skills as they accumulate new vocabulary and skills daily. In the Intensive classes of our Afterschool Program, students can participate in discussions and other activities that will help them become closer to a native English speaker level of English.

Yes, it is an optional class for our preschool students. Since children spend most of their time in an English environment, there may be a slight delay in learning Japanese language, manners, and culture for our Japanese speaking students, plus many of our international students express interest in learning Japanese language and customs. To help those students who plan on attending Japanese elementary schools, or for any students who would like to learn Japanese language and customs, we offer Daruma Class once a week.
