New Group Course for Aspiring Students

The TOMAS Group has launched a specialized course aimed at first-grade students gearing up for entrance exams to elite schools like the Gosan-kei and Waseda-Keio.

In competitive school admissions, developing advanced thinking and expressive skills from an early age is crucial. This new "Junior High School Exam Group Course" highlights a curriculum designed to cultivate higher-order thinking while allowing students to complete essential subject studies early. By finishing these classes by the fourth grade, students can smoothly transition to focused preparations for their desired schools in the fifth grade, gaining a significant advantage in their admission prospects.

What Makes TOMAS Unique?

Difference 1: One-to-One Personalized Instruction

Unlike traditional individual tutoring formats that may involve two or three students with one teacher, TOMAS strictly adheres to a "one room, one student, one teacher" policy. This means the tutor can fully concentrate on the student in front of them, ensuring tailored and effective instruction.

Difference 2: Reverse Curriculum Planning for Admission Success

Instead of settling for schools that students can merely get into, TOMAS encourages families to set their sights on the aspirational "dream school". The instructional staff develop individualized curriculums based on the admission criteria of those top-tier schools, ensuring each student is strategically prepared for success.

Difference 3: Dedicated Teacher and Comprehensive Progress Management

In addition to personal instructors, each student is assigned a subject supervisor who meticulously tracks their progress through the reverse curriculum. Close cooperation with families is maintained to responsibly guide students toward their target schools, fostering an environment of transparency and support.
