Applicants must take placement tests in order to attend this class

First Session: Poetry Comprehension (60 min.)
The main focus of this class is to learn how to read and analyze poetry with a specific aim to construct well-structured answers for entrance exams. Students will begin by learning basic literary techniques and their respective usage as a toolkit for poetry analysis. In the end, students will be expected to answer questions with full sentences using the necessary textual evidence to support their claims.

Second Session:Classic Literature (60 min.)
The main focus of this class is to learn ① how to read and analyze classic literature with a specific aim to construct well-structured answers for entrance exams and ② write expressive stories. Just like in the poetry class, students will begin by learning basic literary techniques and their respective usage as a toolkit for literature analysis. In addition to being able to construct well-structured answers, students will also learn how to formulate a story by utilizing the expressive function of figurative language. A good reader is always a good writer and vice versa.

The main focus of this class is to learn the basics of Jyuken-Mathematics (受験算数) in English. Entrance exams for returnees have begun to require applicants to be acquainted with Jyuken-Mathematics and not the kind of mathematics learned abroad. This automatically imposes a challenge on returnees since most are not familiar with the distinct logic required in Japanese-style mathematics. Students will begin by learning the basics of proportions and ratios. Later, students will proceed to tackle arithmetic word problems, probability of events, regularities, logic and more.

Studebts take JOBA Prime Tutoring(個別指導コース)after the course to individually cover his/her weakness in the subject. On-demand tutoring will be held based on our original Jyuken Mathematics workbook which includes more thab 200 practice questions for you to deepen your understanding.

The main focus of this class is to learn the fundamentals of essay writing. Students will begin by learning how to brainstorm and end by practice writing full-fledged essays for mid-level entrance exams. We expect our students to be able to ①organize ideas with an effective essay structure ②convey information clearly using correct grammar and appropriate vocabulary ③use effective transitions, citations and reporting verbs or phrases accurately.

The main focus of this class is to prepare our students to write “high-quality” analytical essays for top-level entrance exams. The key components to what we mean by “high-quality” here are ①unique in ideas ②coherent in logical structure ③accurate in grammatical usage, and ④creative in expressions. Moreover, in order to cover the wide variety of essay prompts that appear in tier-one exams, the class will place equal emphasis on utilizing insights gained from discussions about various writing topics. We expect our participants to expand their knowledge bank so that they can compose logical arguments more effectively.
