Aied Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Hirotaka Sasaki; hereinafter "Aied") has commenced the deployment of the "Eiken® Perfect Preparation Course," a comprehensive preparation service for the Practical English Proficiency Test (Eiken®) aimed at cram schools. This service is a collaboration with "E-SQUARE ONLINE," an online English conversation service operated by Tsukiyama Juku (Headquarters: Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative: Takeshi Tsukiyama). The course uniquely provides integrated preparation for both the primary exam (reading, listening, and writing tests) and the secondary exam (speaking test), allowing cram schools that do not currently offer Eiken® courses to introduce them without requiring additional effort from their classroom staff.
■ Background and Challenges
Eiken® is one of the primary needs in cram schools, but many cram schools refrain from offering Eiken® courses, especially due to the difficulty of securing instructors with experience in teaching for the secondary exam (speaking test) and the challenges of allocating sufficient class time. Even for the primary exam's reading, listening, and writing tests, cram schools without specialized English teaching resources continue to face difficulties in providing systematic preparation.
■ "Eiken® Perfect Preparation Course" Overview
This course is a package that combines primary exam preparation through the online English conversation service "E-SQUARE ONLINE" and secondary exam (speaking test) preparation using the AI app "Eisupi."

■ Comment from Aied
We are honored to have realized this service provision in collaboration with Tsukiyama Juku's E-SQUARE ONLINE instructors for primary exam preparation lessons, enabling us to support cram schools in both primary and secondary Eiken® preparation. We are confident that this service, in partnership with E-SQUARE ONLINE, which has earned strong trust from many cram schools and continues to expand its adoption, will be a valuable offering for all cram schools.
Moving forward, we will work together with Tsukiyama Juku to sincerely address various challenges in Eiken® preparation, staying close to the needs of cram schools. (Hirotaka Sasaki Thomas, Representative of Aied)
■ Comment from Tsukiyama Juku
By integrating with Eisupi, which allows students to check the results of their E-SQUARE ONLINE practice during their regular studies, even before the interview exam, we support the achievement of higher learning outcomes. Especially for the secondary interview exam, in addition to real-time feedback from E-SQUARE ONLINE instructors, students can now confirm their progress and practice in detail with Eisupi. Both Eiken® primary and secondary interview preparation can be undertaken without burdening teachers. We believe this will also help alleviate staffing shortages.
