Gakken Classroom fosters abilities and skills essential for the coming age
The Gakken Classroom brand was created in 1980 with the ardent desire to help children gain self-confidence and experience the joy of learning. Gakken Classroom currently has over 15,000 learning centers with over 420,000 members learning at them. In the face of the changing demands for education and in response to a wave of requests from abroad, we also expanded overseas in 2014.
Seeking education which suits the coming age, people around the world call for education
which focuses not just on visible skills such as test scores, but which fosters invisible skills which cannot be measured with numbers, such as logical thinking skills, zest for living, learning motivation, learning attitude and morals. Technological development and globalization offer us new opportunities. On the other hand, the fast-paced changes come with uncertainty. In the coming age, we will need invisible skills such as logical thinking skills, problem-solving skills and concentration more than ever.
Our Philosophy
Gakken Classroom fosters the ability to succeed in the world as an adult and to have the correct, beautiful, and sincere attitude and mind of an upstanding member of global society.
In order to assure that the children experience the joy of learning and gain self-confidence, the learning pace is customized according to each child’s ability. This allows solid acquisition of academic abilities. The skills and confidence they acquire through active learning will later become valuable life skills for them.

Visible and Invisible Skills
What are the non-cognitive skills getting attention from around the world?
Cognitive skills (Visible skills) are skills that can be measured with numbers;
in a word, they are measured according to outcomes. In contrast, non-cognitive skills (Invisible skills) cannot be captured through numbers and are important not for the outcome itself but for the process of getting there. They are a set of skills which can enrich the future of children.
Included among the non-cognitive skills are concentration, perseverance,
confidence, self-esteem, leadership, self-initiative, social competence, empathy, and the list goes on. To sum them up in a word, you might call them “human qualities” or “living skills.”
It is possible to build non-cognitive skills as an adult, but it is widely believed that they are most subject to growth up to around 10 years of age. Thanks to these new insights, non-cognitive skills are gathering more and more attention from around the world.

Learning Worksheets
The “Guide Boxes” allow the children to get the points of the content because of their easy-to-understand explanations.
Learning Methods
A system for engaged learning where children read through the text, think about it, and solve each problem all on their own, at their own pace.
Learning worksheets which are matched to each individual’s learning progress and which focus not on “getting the correct answers” but on “understanding.”
Gakken Classroom's Sensei
Tokuiku
Gakken Classroom helps children become responsible members of society who are conscientious of and can empathize with others
Gakken Classroom nurtures not just academic abilities but also the morals which are the basis for independent individuals who can live cooperative and full lives. We believe that being able to do the common sense things we tend to neglect, working little by little each day towards a goal and manners and conscientiousness toward others will be useful in a variety of situations in the children’s future. Our focus is not merely on being able to get a 100 (i.e. to get the correct answers), but on the invisible skills needed to work at a task persistently and deliberately until its completion.
