2026 April Iena Academy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ [For New 1st-Year Students] Comprehensive Course for Integrated Junior and Senior High School Students Launched—Providing English, Math, Science, and Programming Education with a View to University Entrance Exams ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Iena Academy (English name: Jena Academy, operated by Weia Education Inc.) will launch the "Integrated Junior and Senior High School Fast-Paced Course" targeting new 1st-year junior high students entering integrated junior and senior high schools. This course will enable students to start systematic learning with a focus on English, Math, Science, and Programming from an early stage, with a view towards university entrance exams, and provide an optimal learning environment tailored to each student's desired career path. Course introduction page here: https://jena-academy.com/course/njh1 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Background for Launch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Integrated junior and senior high schools have a very fast pace of study from immediately after enrollment, leading to a tendency for academic differences to emerge in a short period. Many cases arise where students fall behind in understanding English and Math while thinking 'I'm just in 1st year of junior high,' which significantly impacts their subsequent studies. Furthermore, there is the reality that solely learning according to the school's pace makes it difficult to foster sufficient academic ability to cope with university entrance exams. Based on this background, Iena Academy has developed a program that solidifies the foundations through rapid learning and connects them to further advanced studies, based on the philosophy that 'the first year of junior high school 1st grade determines the future.' By starting university entrance exam preparation from an early stage, students can significantly broaden their future options. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Reasons for Choosing Iena Academy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ① Optimal Course Design Tailored to Each Individual From students aiming for prestigious universities to those who wish to steadily improve their academic abilities in line with their school's pace, we analyze each student's goals and current status through consultations and propose the most suitable course. We provide individually optimized learning designs, not uniform instruction. ② Hybrid Learning Combining Classroom, Online, and Video Lessons We adopt a hybrid learning approach that combines face-to-face classes, online learning, video lessons, and individual support. By using video lessons for pre-study and concentrating on practice and comprehension checks in class—a 'flipped classroom' approach—we balance efficient learning with securing sufficient practice time. ③ High-Quality Learning Environment Through Small Class Sizes Students can grow while stimulating each other in an environment populated by motivated learners. Small class sizes enable meticulous instruction tailored to individual comprehension levels. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Teaching System ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Many of our instructors are graduates or current students from top-tier universities such as the University of Tokyo, Tokyo University of Science, and medical faculties. Instructors who have successfully navigated difficult entrance exams provide guidance based on thought processes and fundamental understanding. Additionally, we utilize digital tools for learning management and progress tracking, closely monitoring daily academic progress. We also provide follow-up to students and parents as needed, supporting the establishment of continuous study habits. Furthermore, our online support allows students to enroll from anywhere in the country, receiving the same quality of instruction at home as they would in a classroom. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Main Course Contents ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This course offers a variety of programs in English, Math, Science, and Programming, tailored to students' intended career paths. From rapid learning of English grammar to Eiken (STEP Eiken) test preparation, foundational completion of university entrance exam English, and further development of advanced English proficiency through debate and essay writing instruction, learning progresses step-by-step. $ By advancing beyond the junior high curriculum into high school content from an early stage and completing the basics early, we ensure ample time for practice required for university entrance exams. We also offer an ultra-fast-paced course for those aiming for prestigious universities and medical faculties. We build a foundation for smooth learning in high school and beyond through introductory chemistry and biology with a view to medical school admission, and by understanding basic physics. We foster logical thinking skills and practical IT skills through preparation for the Informatics Olympiad and generative AI development. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Target Audience ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ・New 1st-year junior high students planning to enter integrated junior and senior high schools ・Those wishing to study with a view to entering prestigious universities ・Those who want to solidify their foundations early and prepare for entrance exams with ample time ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ Information Request, Inquiries, and Trial Lessons ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ For information requests, inquiries, and trial lesson applications, please use the dedicated form or our official LINE account on the inquiry page below. https://jena-academy.com/inquiry ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ■ About Iena Academy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Iena Academy, as a "cram school that delivers optimal learning tailored to each individual," provides educational programs suited to the goals and learning status of each student, from beginners to those aiming for prestigious universities such as the University of Tokyo, top medical faculties, and overseas universities.
