Changes in English Education

More than three years have passed since English became a formal subject in elementary schools, and English education for elementary school students has become established nationwide.

The national curriculum guidelines for English learning changed significantly from 2020 for elementary schools and from 2021 for junior high schools. Currently, 5th and 6th graders have two 70-minute English classes per week, and English has become a graded subject to balance the four skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

As a subject, the curriculum now integrates four skills into five areas, creating a continuous program with junior high school-level English. The goal is "to cultivate the qualities and abilities that form the foundation for communication." This is almost the same as the previous junior high school curriculum guidelines.

In other words, the level of English learned in elementary school has risen sharply and become more difficult.

Moreover, the implementation grade for "Foreign Language Activities (English)" has been moved up, starting from 3rd and 4th grades.

Additionally, the number of English words to memorize in junior high school has increased from 1,200 to 1,600–1,800 words.

Junior high schools aim for all-English instruction.

Especially in elementary schools, not only English but also programming classes have become compulsory, significantly changing the learning environment for elementary school students.

And from the 2024 university entrance exams (conducted in January 2025), exams aligned with the new curriculum guidelines will begin.

Now is the Time for Active Method's Typing English Learning

Active Method's strength is its learning method that allows students to input a large number of English words in a short time. All conventional English "writing" is done through typing.

Students type English words on a keyboard to build vocabulary. Audio plays while they type, helping them learn spelling along with correct pronunciation.

Once accustomed to practicing English through typing, students can type 5 to 10 times faster than writing with a pencil.

[6th grader student] Now I can understand the English in movies!

I really enjoy memorizing various English words one after another. I've become able to naturally translate Japanese into English, and even when watching movies, I can roughly understand what the characters are saying.

[Parent of kindergarten, 3rd grader, and 6th grader] English skills improved enough to win at the national competition!

A friend introduced us to a place where both English and typing can be learned, so we went for a trial. My child was really hooked and said, "I definitely want to learn!" Not only had my child never used a computer, but the teacher's lessons were so fun that my child came to love English. Now all three siblings attend. My son placed 2nd nationwide and my daughter 3rd in a vocabulary competition – their English skills have improved astonishingly.
