Weekend and After School English Program for 2024 at Lexis Kichijoji Tokyo

Tokyo English School After School and Weekends

Lexis provides a complete K-12 English program that helps students reach their full potential in English proficiency.
The English program is paced at the same standard as western and international schools, and is based on age and ability internationally, not what students in Japan are doing. The Lexis coursework is designed to be done in tandem with Japanese public or private education. Our school focuses on returnee students, international families, and bilingual speakers. We have been guiding students as young as 2 all the way into university for nearly 30 years. Many of our original students are now sending their children to us, looking for the same results.

After School English Lessons for Bilingual Children

The reason we we have second and third generation students is trust. For nearly 30 years we have been part of the community. We don't accept untrained teachers or inexperienced staff. Additionally, students of Lexis rarely have a teacher leave on them, with an average time at Lexis of 16 years rather the "eikaiwa" average of 2, our teaching staff remains committed to Lexis, committed to our students, committed to this community, and committed to results!

English Reading Writing and Spelling

Our K-12 system allows students in Japan to read, write, spell, speak and listen to the same level of content their peers in North America are studying in their English classes. That ensures a smooth transition wherever you are, or may go. This incudes high level prep courses for entering universities outside of Japan as well as in country.

Bilingual Confidence with English

Lexis is a once a week, after school or weekend class-based lesson. While we do teach high level English at Lexis, a lot of our best efforts go into motivating, building confidence and creating language tendencies within our classrooms. We find that this delivers the best results outside of the classroom as well. The coursework is paced in a manner where it should be done throughout the week. That means students attending Lexis will be asked to spend about 10-20 minutes a day on course work, 3-5 days a week. This ensures that English skill acquisition is maintained on a daily, rather than weekly basis.

Please consider trying out a lesson at one of our free trial lessons. We offer them year round. All students are welcome to come in for a level check to help students and parents find the best suited lesson. Students will then be able to join a lesson at no charge. They will see their actual teacher, real homework, and their actual classmates. Hopefully you will find Lexis a good fit for you and your family. If not, we promise not to chase you down, make you subscribe to any list or jam your inbox full of nonsense! Thank you from Lexis.

I wanted my kids to join Lexis because of how Lexis helped me though-out my childhood. After living in the U.K. for a year, I started Lexis from 10 years old until graduating high school. It gave me confidence and helped me to simply enjoy English. It’s not easy but it is definitely worth it because I can truly say I got into university because of the effort I put into Lexis’s work.

息子が5歳（年長）から16歳（高２）までお世話になりました。宿題は大変でしたが、ロビン先生の楽しい授業に参加したい一心で息子はどんなに大変でも決して「やめたい」とは言いませんでした。それに応えるように先生も熱心にご指導下さったおかげで通い続けることができました。

Translated: "My son has been under your care from the age of 5 (kindergarten) to 16 years old (11th grade). Although the homework has been tough, my son never once said that he wanted to quit because he was eager to participate in Robin-sensei's fun lessons. Thanks to Robin-sensei's enthusiastic guidance in response to my son's eagerness, he was able to continue attending your school."

"My parents both used to attend Lexis in the past, and they enrolled me in the school as soon as a class for children of my age was opened. While the content may be challenging, I am enjoying it. I think it's a school where I can attend with peace of mind for a long time. After studying abroad in Australia, I returned to Lexis to continue my high level English studies."

During my childhood, I spent three and a half years living in the United States. When I returned home, I went to Lexis for over ten years to keep up and improve my English skills. Now, I'm studying at the University of California, Berkeley. I tried out lessons at a few different schools, and what I liked about Lexis was how they balanced reading, writing, and speaking practice. The teachers were native speakers and matched the lessons to my level, making them interesting with things like seasonal events, movies, and music. Lexis was definitely where I built the foundation for my English and learned how to express myself confidently.
