Point1：All our early childhood educators are fully certified.

Point3：We have a Japanese language preparation course for 5 years olds to ensure they transfer smoothly into elementary school.

Our experienced native English teachers are paired with certified Japanese early childhood educators to create a compressive teaching team.

Point4：Children spend the day living and learning in a home stay-like environment.

English is not simply another foreign language, but the global lingua franca. It is the language of choice, used extensively at multinational cultural, social, and sporting events. OIP’s English language early education program has been created to provide children with the means of communication they will need to become citizens in the international community.

Through everyday interaction with our foreign teaching staff and special guest teachers, we aim to create a unique international awareness in our students. At OIP we instill our students with an unbiased respect and appreciation for all humanity.

We raise children to be kind and compassionate towards all living things. The lessons they learn at OIP will help them become contributing members of their local and international communities.

Spending the day immersed in the unique environment at OIP, children live in English rather than study it. In this low pressure natural way children learn and retain more.

OIP’s teaching staff is made up of native English teachers and certified Japanese child care workers.

Throughout the year OIP hosts various international events like Easter, Halloween and Christmas while also taking great pride in traditional Japanese events like the Star Festival (Tanaba).
