Adults
- Because very little English is generally used
in everyday Japanese society, the general standard
of spoken English is lower than in most European
and many other Asian countries, although of
course there are exceptions to this.
- Adult students are grouped by ability from
complete beginners to advanced
- The vast majority of students are generally
pre-intermediate level and below
- Lessons focused on communication (conversation,
listening and pronunciation)
- Far higher proportion of higher level students
in city centre locations.

complete beginners.
