“English in Action”
VGC offers a style of learning English systematically, incorporating activities in addition to classroom learning. Aiming to learn practical, living English, we have prepared a variety of programs and courses to meet the needs of many international students. Most of our teachers have a master’s degree (TESOL, DELTA, CELTA qualifications) or higher, so we are well-known for the educational level of our teachers. Our English only policy is more thorough than other schools, and we are blessed with an environment in which to speak English. Although our environment is very international, our Japanese staff are always there to warmly support our Japanese students.
Key Points of VGC

- EOP is strict (International students have to speak English even with staff).
- Study Labo (A study room where teachers are always present and you can ask questions at any time.)
