We provide educational programs for students aiming for higher education in Japan. Studying in Japan requires not only improving Japanese language proficiency, but also deepening understanding of Japanese society and culture, as well as developing academic thinking skills. For this reason, our school has established a curriculum to cultivate these abilities, and our faculty and staff work together to provide personalized learning support and career guidance to each and every student.
We have also installed electronic whiteboards in all classrooms and incorporated ICT-based instruction, creating a comfortable and effective learning environment for both students and teachers alike.
Furthermore, in order to provide high-quality education, it is also essential that the faculty and staff who support students' learning have a fulfilling work environment. We value teamwork, continually engage in training and process improvement to develop our skills, and promote the creation of a supportive and easy-to-work-in environment.
A Japanese language school is a place where people with various goals gather, learn together, and grow. The faculty and staff of Tokyo Waseda Foreign Language School will continue to sincerely consider what we can do for our students, and remain fully committed to each and every one of them.
Our Foundation
Tokyo Waseda Foreign Language School was founded on Christian values.
