Educational Philosophy and Policy.
School Philosophy: Valuing “Learning” and making “Ability” a reality.
Our school’s philosophy places the highest priority on learning as the fundamental purpose of studying abroad, and while international students come to Japan with their own dreams and goals, we objectively identify each student’s unique individuality often qualities they may not yet be aware of encourage new self-awareness, broaden future possibilities, clarify academic direction, and support advancement to universities and graduate schools, where students can learn from an academic perspective, which is why we have established a Higher Education Advancement Course.
In our Japanese language education program, beginner-level students build a strong foundation through a structured grammar-based syllabus combined with original teaching materials that incorporate a cognitive learning approach in a hybrid teaching method, while from the pre-intermediate level onward the curriculum focuses on preparation courses for higher-level JLPT examinations, and we also place strong emphasis on EJU preparation, working in cooperation with educational institutions with proven results to help students achieve high scores.
Through the establishment of this comprehensive Japanese language education system, our goal is to expand what international students are able to do and to support them in turning the dreams they develop into reality.
Greetings from the Principal
Thank you very much for visiting the website of NichiRyu Academy of ForeignStudies.
I believe many of you are preparing to come to Japan as international students.
However, before you come to Japan, please take a moment to ask yourself again:”Why do I want to learn Japanese? What are my goals?” Each of you likely has your own specific goals. But can you achieve those goals by simply being able to speak and listen in Japanese? Without the ability to read and write in Japanese, advancing to higher education or finding a job may be challenging. To acquire the level of Japanese where you can read, listen, speak, and write proficiently, continuous learning is essential.
At NichiRyu Academy of Foreign Studies, we provide guidance to help you read and understand Japanese, engage in discussions in Japanese, and write Japanese texts. For those of you who are serious about improving your Japanese, we encourage you to lay a solid foundation at our school, where our motto is “Challenging yet enjoyable lessons,” and aim for even higher levels of proficiency.
We warmly look forward to welcoming you to NichiRyu Academy of Foreign Studies in Itoman City, Okinawa, Japan where you can enjoy the refreshing sea breeze all year round.
Principal：KANEMOTO, Satoshi
