Teacher Training Workshop: Unlocking the JLPT Reading Section!

With concerns growing about declining academic performance among students during the pandemic, we held a training workshop focused on JLPT preparation classes, with the goal of having instructors first review their own teaching in order to help students improve their skills.

We invited Ms. Yumiko Ezaki, representative of CHEERS, as our guest lecturer. The workshop gave us the opportunity to think about JLPT preparation classes from various perspectives — how instructors can be more creative to make classes student-centered, how to boost students' motivation, and how to run more effective lessons. After Ms. Ezaki's lecture, all instructors engaged seriously in the workshop activities.

We will apply what we learned in this training to our preparation classes and work hard so that all students can pass in December.
