Important Notices
If you wish to withdraw from enrollment after joining, the submission of a withdrawal form is required. Upon submission of the withdrawal form, a receipt of withdrawal will be sent from the school. The withdrawal process will be considered complete upon receipt of the withdrawal acknowledgment. If the withdrawal form is not submitted by the deadline, the lessons for the following semester will be automatically renewed.
Once withdrawn, if you plan to take a break for the next semester or wish to re-enroll, a re-enrollment fee of ¥5,500 will be charged. In the case of re-enrollment from the middle of the next semester immediately after withdrawal, a re-enrollment fee of ¥3,300 will be charged. Withdrawal cancellations after the deadline will incur a processing fee of ¥1,100.
After School Care
For After School care, students enrolled under the semester system will be billed on a semester basis, while those under the monthly system will be billed monthly. Typically, students under the semester system will be enrolled in After School care for the entire semester. Students under the semester system cannot take breaks or withdraw from After School care mid-semester, while those under the monthly system can take breaks or withdraw monthly. Please complete the procedures for breaks or withdrawals by the same deadline as the monthly group lesson system.
Fee: ¥880 per hour x weeks in a semester
Minimum Enrollment: 3 students
Maximum Enrollment: Up to 10 students (Excess students for makeup classes are not included in the quota.)
Content: Activities such as art, science, music, dance, and storytelling will be conducted during the After School period. The content may vary depending on the assigned teacher. The instruction will be based on the expertise of the assigned teacher (e.g., music, art, dance). If there are less than 2 students, a Japanese bilingual teacher may be assigned. If there are 3 or more students, a native teacher will typically be assigned. In cases where the schedule of the native teacher cannot be adjusted on the day due to teacher's absence, bilingual staff may be assigned.
Students can also participate in After School care on other days. After School care is a class where students who have taken regular group lessons can enroll additionally for extracurricular English learning. (For students enrolled exclusively in After School care, the fee will be ¥1,870 per hour, tax included.)
Supplementary Classes (Single Payment)
For NYC students, supplementary classes are available. You can attend for ¥550 per hour, where bilingual teachers will use Japanese to help deepen your understanding of the content you are studying this semester. You can also participate in these classes as makeup lessons. During the one-hour supplementary class, there will also be time to play games with native teachers.
Tuesday 17:30-18:30 Targeted at levels 1-3
(In case of cancellation of supplementary classes, we will inform you via newsletter.)
BOOK CLUB (Formerly Test Prep Class)
Developing the ability to comprehend and enjoy reading will be the foundation for test preparation. In addition to addressing Japanese students' weaknesses in writing during test preparation, we will enhance English language proficiency through speaking, grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, and games. As instruction will be provided by native teachers, all teaching will be conducted in English. Participation is open to elementary to high school students. Depending on individual levels, families can subscribe to Raz-Kids (an online digital book) from home, where they can improve reading comprehension and vocabulary from A-Z Reading. We use materials from Raz-Kids/Reading A-Z (https://www.learninga-z.com/site/products/raz-plus/overview), with a subscription fee of ¥1,100 per semester. Additionally, we have accounts on IXL (https://www.ixl.com/), allowing students to study curriculums used in American or international school English classes during their free time.
The Test Prep Class also offers preparation for tests other than Eiken, including TOEFL, according to your needs. If you prefer test preparation using past questions rather than reading books, please contact us, and we will accommodate your request.
Private Lessons
For those paying on a semester basis, the facility fee is ¥6,600 per semester, and the Raz-Kids account fee is ¥1,100 per semester. Private lessons cost ¥4,950 per hour, with classes scheduled weekly. Private lessons can be customized based on the student's level and preferences, and achievable goals will be set with the teacher. Lesson content will be shared via platforms like Google Classroom. Accounts on IXL and GSA are included in the fee.
Notification for Lesson Makeup
Regarding makeup lessons, notifications will continue to be sent via the form. However, since we need to manage the number of participants, makeup lessons cannot be provided for unexcused absences. Please inform us of absences via the designated form before the lesson. Makeup lessons must be completed within the same semester, and rescheduling makeup lessons is not allowed. Prior registration is required via the form for makeup lessons.
For each semester, up to six makeup lessons are allowed for missed classes. In the event of a state of emergency declaration, makeup lessons will be conducted online, with a limit of six makeup lessons. Only students continuing into the next semester can carry over makeup lessons up to three hours.
Changing classes mid-semester is free once per semester, except for classes already at full capacity. If attending the registered class becomes impossible, we recommend changing classes. Makeup participants are not included in the group lesson capacity, and classes with many makeup participants may exceed the capacity of six students. Classes where makeup is not possible will be notified by the school.
School Faculty
At NYC School, we are always looking for excellent teachers. Although we operate under the basic homeroom teacher system, teachers may be substituted mid-semester if requested by the teacher or if the school determines that the teacher is not suitable for instruction. If a teacher's health is not good and they are unable to teach on the day, we will announce it in the newsletter. In such cases, another teacher will provide temporary instruction, or if a substitute teacher is also unavailable, Japanese staff will provide instruction, or students will be offered makeup classes in other classes. In the case of After School care, there will generally be no notification of teacher changes.
Level Assessment Tests (Class Placement)
At NYC School, we aim for students of the same age to attend classes at the same level, but there may be variations in class composition, with students of different ages or slightly different levels in the same class. Levels range from introductory to 6, and there are also Test Prep Classes (Book Clubs). Assessments are conducted every semester through oral and written tests, and based on students' performance and participation in class, we recommend suitable levels. Classes are organized every semester, so we recommend registering for the recommended class at that time. If a student feels that the level is not suitable during the semester, we may reassess the class placement or recommend a different class. Rather than insisting on advancing to the next level, we strive for students to continue their interest in English in challenging classes where each student can improve. Instruction will primarily be provided by native teachers, but Japanese staff may assist with explanations as needed. Currently, instruction by Japanese staff alone is not provided. If tutoring or supplementary classes are required, instruction with Japanese support is available separately. Please consult us for details.
Parties
We hold annual Easter, Halloween, and Christmas Parties by renting rooms.
Registration for GSA (www.gsacademy.com)
NYC students can attend GSA's online ELA lessons up to five times a month free of charge during the enrolled semester. Each session is 25 minutes long and consists of individual lessons taught by native teachers. Since it is highly recommended for improving English proficiency, NYC students have the opportunity to take advantage of this service for free. If the free lesson limit is exceeded, additional lessons can be booked by adding coins. Each additional lesson costs ¥2,400 for every 100 coins. (Revision effective from May 17, 2021).
Once registration is complete, we will contact you from NYC. If you register directly from the GSA website, you will be registered as a regular GSA student, and a monthly fee will be charged. Please note that reservations made after withdrawing from NYC will incur fees. Free lessons are only available during the period of enrollment in NYC, so please be aware of this.
Textbooks from GSA will be sent using GSA's original curriculum materials. Although the materials are free, there is a shipping fee of approximately ¥500.
If you feel that the level is not suitable while attending GSA, you can directly consult with GSA from NYC for a re-evaluation. However, customization of GSA lessons is not available, so please be aware of this.
By utilizing both face-to-face lessons at NYC and online lessons at GSA, students can learn a wide range of English vocabulary while benefiting from good interaction in their studies.
Registration for Raz-Kids
Students who wish to subscribe to Raz-Kids can do so even if they are not in the BOOK CLUB. Available exclusively to NYC students, an account can be created for ¥1,100 per semester. With unlimited access to books, students can read English books at their level, listen to readings, record their voices, and take quizzes to check comprehension. Points can be accumulated, and students can continue reading like playing a game. Reading books and listening to readings are essential for improving English proficiency, making this subscription highly recommended for students who want to truly make English their own. (Spanish and French can also be added for free if desired.)
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at info@nycschool.jp before submitting the form.
Regarding class selection, we generally consult with you after your first free trial group lesson. A trial lesson for private lessons is also available for ¥2,200 for 30 minutes, with a free textbook provided after the trial. The duration of private lessons can be discussed upon request.
If you wish to experience a trial lesson and have not yet visited the school, please contact us via the inquiry form at http://nycschool.jp/.
Thank you very much.
