INTRODUCING GLOBAL PEOPLE PROJECT
Global Learning Starts Here
OUR MISSION
Gather & Nurture Globally-Minded Young People
To live in the society of tomorrow, it is important to understand people globally.
This project aims to gather & connect young people from all over the world in order to foster an awareness of various cultures and societies, and to increase students' abilities to communicate in a global environment.
Through this project, we also aim to build a community of young learners who can network and support one another's future activities.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDY ABROAD PREPARATION
Global People Project Presents:
Online High School Study Abroad Preparation Program
Many people have given up their summer camps and activities due to the novel coronavirus, however we have good news for you.
Since June of this year, we have been holding monthly online programs to help prepare students who are planning on going abroad to study at a high school in the near future. This program includes classes in academic English, practical conversation, mathematics, science (biology & chemistry) and essay-writing. Also, because our classes are multinational, students can experience a cultural exchange much like those that you would find in an actual study abroad program.
In our multi-national classroom, students will learn about Japanese, Taiwanese and Vietnamese culture, as well as prepare for international student life from our tutors, who are currently attending western universities abroad.
