With the support of Oxford University Press, our teachers are fully equipped with effective methods to make the most of these high-quality materials, tools, and manuals.
Oxford Quality certified schools are globally recognized as educational institutions of the highest quality and reputation.
Fun and Educational Events
Universal Campus offers a variety of fun English learning events throughout the year. There are two picnics a year, as well as a summer camp, Halloween Party, Christmas Party, and Speech Performance Day. These eventsa give children the chance to use Engish in different situations, make wonderful memories, and buid thier confidence.
Picnics
At Universal Campus, there are three picnics a year. We do things such as BBQ’s, going to aquariums, visiting the Space and Sience Museum, and so on. The picinics are always a lot of fun and are a great way for kids to be able to apply their English skills outside of the classroom.
Summer English Camp
We have Summer English Camp for two nights every year. For this event, teachers practice for a dance routine they will teach to the kids at camp. We cook food with the kids, do fun activities like swimming or canoeing, and have a big campfire to toast marshmallows.
Halloween Party
The Halloween Party is very special for native teachers. Kids and teachers wear interesting costumes, participate in lots of fun Halloween activities, and get lots of candy.
Christmas Party
Kids can learn about Christmas by joining in special party activities and celebrating the holiday with teachers.
Beyond Teaching
Our teachers build up not only their teaching skills, but their business experience as well. This environment allows them to make full use of their communication skills, as they have many opportunities to gain a better understanding of Japanese culture by communicating with Japanese students and their parents, as well as working as a team member with Japanese staff members.
Lobby Talk
Interacting with students and their parents in the lobby is very important to build trust and discuss the progress of students in class. It also gives native teachers the opportunity to learn how to properly communicate with Japanese customers and gain a deeper understanding of educational needs in Japan.
Cleaning
After school, native teachers and Japanese teachers clean the classrooms together. By keeping the school clean, we are ensuring that students can learn in a safe and hygenic environment.
Model Lesson
Native teachers have sample lessons to introduce UC to prospective students and their parents. It’s the first time for many students to immerse themselves in English, so teachers should support and encourage students to enjoy English.
Flyer Distribution
As part of our public relations efforts, we distribute flyers outside the school.
