‘We’, located at its prime location in the heart of Shibuya, is now entering its 20th year of establishment. For the past 19 years, it has welcomed students with the spirit of sincerity and has strived to provide the highest quality language education in Japan. Our passionate teachers and staff work with utmost attention to the students in order to tailor our programs to meet their needs and help them achieve their dreams and goals. The unchanging philosophy of “student-centered teaching” is at the heart of our school. The students are always our top priority.
Original Plan for Everyone
Every one has difference values and lifestyle, meaning every one has different comfort zones and notions of what defines efficiency. To that end, here at We, we focus on devising original curriculum and study plans in accommodating individualized needs of our students, so as to allow our students to make the most of their time here for personal growth.
Participation in Bilingual Classes
At ‘We’ there are discussion classes (Global Insights) and hobby classes (Hobby-English). Students from the Japanese language school can participate in them too, and it is a great opportunity to discuss the custom and cultural differences between your country and Japan with native Japanese speakers, acquire new hobbies and meet new friends who share the same interests.
Exchange program
‘We’ conducts exchange programs with Japanese students who are studying English or Chinese. It is a good chance to expand your network and meet exchange partners who share the same hobby or lifestyle. The exchange program is sure to make your stay in Japan a much more enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

We want you to be yourself in Japan, and we provide support to enable you to express who you are and how you feel in Japanese. We don’t simply focus on following set plans and textbooks. Rather, we focus on finding out what you would like/need to express in Japanese, and set out to plan your program accordingly. We believe that it is under this method and mindset that people eventually learn and master languages.
As I am very busy with my work, I need a structure to help me to learn Japanese, not only a teacher. I found the method, the regular follow-up of the progresses very attractive.
Originally, I chose “We” because of its location in central Tokyo. But very soon I discovered that there is more to “We” than “just” conveniently situated classrooms. I enjoy taking classes with my creative and friendly teacher, and I am pleased with the personal attention I get from my helpful student partner.
Weは、渋谷に1校、20年目の語学学校です。 質で日本一を目指し、真心のこもったスクールを創って参りました。 この19年間Weが追求してきたことは「生徒中心主義」。 常に生徒さんの存在が、私たちの真ん中にあります。 「生徒さんの希望をかなえるために、私が今、行うべきこと。」 Weの講師・スタッフの行動はすべてここにあります。 「Student Centered(生徒中心)」。 それは、何年たっても変わらないWeのプリンシプルです。
「すべてのひとにオリジナルプラン」人はそれぞれ「価値観」や「ライフスタイル」が違います。だから、それぞれ「快適」や「効率的」も違います。Weは生徒さんの「都合」や「性格」に合わせて生徒さんのオリジナルの学習プランを生徒さんと一緒に組み立てます。生徒さんにとって有意義な自己成長の時間にするために。
■異文化理解セッション
Weでは英語を使ったディスカッションクラス(Global Insights)や趣味を学ぶクラス(Hobby-English)があります。日本語学校の生徒さんも参加する事ができますので、ディスカッションクラスで自国と日本との風習・文化の違いについて学んだり、趣味のクラスを通じて知識を得たり、同じ趣味を持つ友達に出会えます。

日本でも「自分らしく」いるために。Weの講師は「自分」を「自分の日本語」で表現するお手伝いをします。「テキストに追随するのではなく、自分を表現するために必要な日本語(JapnaNEEDS®)を学ぶ。」その過程で言語は真に上達します。
仕事が忙しいので、質の高い授業はもちろんのことながら、システムのしっかりとしている学校を探していました。そもそもWeを選んだ理由は東京の中心にあったからですが、通うようになってWeの魅力はアクセスの良さだけでないとわかりました。色々な工夫をして授業を楽しくしてくれるフレンドリーな先生にも、Student Partnerによる一対一のサポートにも大満足です。
