J-Prep Saito Juku

J PREP is a liberal arts afterschool program offered to students who attend top schools in Tokyo and its vicinities. J PREP was founded in 2012 by Jun Saito, a former assistant professor of political science at Yale University. Though new as a school, J PREP is rapidly expanding. Our faculty members are highly qualified, ranging from Ivy graduates to Ph.D. candidates and holders. The school’s goal is to use high quality English training as a means to widen the perspectives of our students. In the long run, we ultimately aim to better the overall quality of the Japanese educational system from the bottom up, rather than merely teaching conversational English or preparing for entrance exams in Japan. As all the faculty members have lived outside Japan, they understand the importance of English as a communication device. In addition, for the same reason, J Institute’s work environment is not confined by the traditional Japanese corporate culture. It is committed to transparency and the contentment of its employees.

Rikkyo University

Rikkyo University located in Tokyo and founded in 1874 began with St. Paul's School. It was established by the Episcopal Church missionary Bishop Channing Moore Williams as a private school that taught Christian Bible studies and English. At that time, Japan was rushing to catch up with the advanced nations of the West, and the field of education also had a strong utilitarian tendency. Knowledge and technology were often seen as tools for material prosperity and self-advancement. Rikkyo went against the trend of the age, modeling after the traditional liberal arts colleges of the West, which has successfully continued to develop to this day. The shield mark, Rikkyo University’s official symbol, was established in 1918 by the then-President of the University, Charles S. Reifsnider, and is held to embody Rikkyo University's founding principles. The Latin text written across the shield,"PRO DEO ET PATRIA," means "For God and Country." At the University, this has been interpreted to mean "to seek universal and divine truth, for our world, society, and neighbors," an ideal that guides our educational philosophy.
