Spatore's Commitment to English Language Education

Spatore Inc., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is taking a significant step forward in English language education with the introduction of its online learning programs fully compliant with the newly revised Japanese textbooks for the 2024 and 2025 academic years. This initiative aims to cater to elementary, junior high, and high school students, as well as general learners, making language acquisition more effective and engaging.

Adapting to Educational Reforms

The 2024 and 2025 academic curriculum revisions by the Ministry of Education emphasize developing critical thinking, judgment, and expressive skills. Key updates include the introduction of AI and information utilization components, along with a heightened focus on spoken activities tailored to different developmental stages. In response to these curriculum changes, there is an urgent need for educators to rethink teaching progress management and assessment strategies.

Since 2019, Spatore has been at the forefront of English language education, collaborating with major textbook publishers to provide a unique blended learning model that integrates textbook adherence with online conversation practice. This latest curriculum revision aligns perfectly with Spatore’s ongoing commitment to excellence in language education.

One standout feature of the program is the AI evaluation capability, which collects spoken interactions during lessons. It instantly visualizes expressions used correctly and areas needing improvement. This objective assessment provides students with numerical analysis of their comprehension and allows for immediate feedback post-lesson, essential for reflective learning. Moreover, trend analyses for the whole class can be generated quickly to inform teaching strategies.

Utilization of Digital Textbooks

Some textbooks will feature digital versions that enhance the learning experience by integrating videos, audio, and graphic content, allowing students to deepen their understanding interactively. The inclusion of writing functionalities within digital textbooks also facilitates more efficient learning.

Workbooks for Enhanced Learning

To support classroom learning, Spatore provides worksheets that align with the lesson content. These worksheets have explanations in Japanese, enabling students who may struggle with English to engage confidently and grasp lesson flow effectively. This promotes a continuous learning loop where students set goals, formulate questions, listen, and reflect on their progress, thereby boosting their enthusiasm for learning English.

Tailored Lessons for Individual Needs

Lessons are tailored to meet the varying proficiency levels of students. For those struggling, foundational learning based on the textbooks is emphasized, while advanced students can tackle more challenging content to further improve their language skills.

Pricing and Program Accessibility
