Tao Co., Ltd. (Location: Kusatsu City, Shiga Prefecture; Representative Director: Yoshiaki Kurosawa), which develops the digital learning material "Tenjin," has launched a free specialized learning support media on note (https://note.com/tenjin_edu) for parents of children with developmental disabilities and gray zones, explaining each subject at a unit level.

To parents who worry, "Is it just my child?" – Making expert knowledge a shared social asset.

In recent years, the need for support for children with developmental disabilities has rapidly increased. According to a survey by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, the number of students receiving "special needs instruction" in separate rooms due to developmental disabilities reached approximately 200,000 in 2023. This is about 1.7 times higher than in 2018, when the current survey scope began, showing a significant increase over five years. While support in educational settings is expanding, many families struggle with the question, "How should I teach them?" We have also received feedback such as, "My child has a mild intellectual disability, and I was worried that classes at the special needs school alone wouldn't be enough." This highlights the demand for information on home learning support.

Unraveling why errors persist in decimal multiplication from the perspective of brain characteristics.

We are starting to provide free learning support information on our official note. This is not just general advice. We will unravel the reasons why errors persist in decimal multiplication from the perspective of developmental characteristics and propose actionable steps that can be taken today. We will carefully explain how to approach situations when alphabets don't stick in a child's mind. As of April 29, 2026, we have already published 25 articles, mainly focusing on math and English. Going forward, we aim to expand the scope to Japanese, science, and social studies, striving for support across all subjects. By knowing the correct teaching methods, we hope to alleviate parental anxiety and support children in accumulating successful experiences of "understanding."

Clarifying the invisible "reasons for stumbling blocks."

Our company employs professionals who are thoroughly knowledgeable in the content of each subject for elementary and junior high schools, as well as child development support specialists and developmental disability support advisors. We also have employees who are raising children with developmental disabilities themselves. We respond to consultations from parents, regardless of whether they have purchased our products or not. Going beyond profit, we have decided to share our accumulated knowledge as a common social asset. Every child has strengths. If we understand the reasons for their stumbling blocks, we can see the path forward. However, this is not easily visible to everyone. Specialized knowledge is meaningful only when it reaches those who need it. We are committed to continuing to disseminate our accumulated knowledge to help with home learning support – that is our sole motivation.
