Daiichi Gakuin High School, operated by Withus Inc. (Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; Representative: Tomio Ikoma), will host the 'Dream Class TOKYO GLOBAL GATEWAY (TGG)' on Friday, July 10, 2026.
This program will be held at the experiential English learning facility 'TOKYO GLOBAL GATEWAY (TGG)' and is open to students from all Daiichi Gakuin Group campuses nationwide. In an environment that simulates overseas travel or studying abroad, students from different campuses will learn practical English conversation together. Through English communication, they will compare their own lifestyles with foreign cultures, deepen their understanding of different cultures, and gain new insights. By repeatedly practicing real-life conversations, they aim to improve their English speaking skills and expand their future academic and career possibilities.
TOKYO GLOBAL GATEWAY
On the day, the theme will be 'Introducing Japanese Hospitality Culture to the World,' featuring an experiential program where students present Japanese culture in English. Using the furoshiki (wrapping cloth) as an example of Japan's 'wrapping culture,' students will introduce it in their own words. Additionally, they will experience English conversations in recreated everyday environments such as the Campus Zone, Travel Zone, and Hotel Zone.
This program emphasizes not just 'learning' English, but 'using' it. In an extraordinary environment filled with English speakers, students will work together with peers, receive support from native English speakers, and accumulate successful experiences such as 'I understood!' and 'I was understood!'—motivating each student to take the next step forward.
