As the result of a questionnaire, 92.8% of the students answered "agree" or "generally agree" to the article ‘The lessons were satisfying overall.’ (Held in March, 2010)
1. Cultivating communication skills
Since the opening of the school in 1986, ARC Academy has focused our Japanese
language education on cultivating communication skills. We create various activities
in the classrooms in order for students to be able to learn useful and functional
Japanese.
2. Exellent team of teachers
We have produced excellent Japanese teachers who succeed through one of our course "Training
Courses in Teaching Japanese."
Graduates will be able to communicate in Japanese naturally through taking classes
with our selected teachers.
3. Preparing for higher study
We offer more effective programs for students who want to go on to universities,
graduate schools or vocational schools. We fully support students by holding
a higher study presentation meeting, personal counseling,
a preparation class for proceeding to graduate programs and lectures specialized
for Japanese Language Proficiency Test and Examination for Japanese University
Admission for International Students. Also, students who get high grades will
be recommended to designated schools.
4. Support for job-hunting
We have government permission to refer students for employment. Japanese language
teachers and students would be supported by our Employment Support Section.
5. Scholarship
We have an excellent variety of scholarships including "the Monbukagakushou
Scholarship" and "Lee
Soo-Hyun Scholarship."
6. Self-study room, computer room
Rooms for study and computer use are open to students. Students can
use the internet and e-mail freely.
7. Multinationality
There are students from all over the world in ARC Academy. Normally, we have
over 40 nationalities. We also give them interesting opportunities, such as
parties with Japanese.
8. Outdoor classes, various events, cultural
exchange activities
We hold off campus-classes, sports event, speech competitions, and other extracurricular
activities every term. We have classes outside the classroom, such as visiting
local elementary schools, middle schools and Japanese families. You will have
a lot of fun with a lot of great experiences through varied extra
lessons and activities.
Japanese cultural experience classes besides Japanese language classes are offered. We would like you to experience Japanese culture as much as possible while you stay in Japan. Optional Japanese cultural Programs October Term (PDF)
9. Safe dormitory life
We introduce affiliated student dorms and guest houses which are safe
and reliable for students. We can also introduce homestays to students who plan
to stay for a short-term period. Different cultural experiences in a Japanese home
is something that you cannot gain in a classroom.
10. Friendly staffs
Our friendly staffs will always encourage and support your life in Japan.
There are English, Korean, and Chinese speakers for when it is too difficult
for you to ask for a help in Japanese. We offer periodical counselings but
students can feel free to come and talk with our staff about whatever they want,
whenever they want.
