Saturday School
Joy to the World: 4th Floor
Stress-Free English Learning at Saturday School!
Discover the joy of learning at Joy to the World’s Saturday School, where your child can build confidence and grow their English skills in a fun, relaxed environment.
Who Can Join?
Our Saturday School is open to children aged 3 to 4th Grade, and all skill levels are welcome. Classes run from 9 am to noon.
Learning English Through Fun and Play
At Saturday School, we believe that learning should be enjoyable. Our student-centered approach uses role-playing, interactive games, and creative projects to help your child naturally develop their English skills. By engaging their curiosity and creativity, we build confidence, encourage critical thinking, and make learning fun.
Outdoor Play and Parent Communication
Every Saturday, if the weather is nice, we head outside for games and free play. This gives children the chance to practice their English in a natural, fun setting with friends and teachers. We also keep parents in the loop with our class blog, where you can see photos and read about what your child is learning.
Great Location
Our school is just a 5-minute walk from Myogadani Station on the Marunouchi Line. For families who need help with transportation, we offer a bus service, though seats are limited, so please sign up early to reserve your spot.

Tuition
Saturday School: Flexible Pricing for Busy Families
We understand that weekends are special times for family activities—whether it’s a short trip, visiting relatives, or simply spending quality time together. That’s why our Saturday School offers a unique pricing policy that gives you flexibility without the pressure of missing out.
Our Pricing Policy: 2 Free Lessons Each Term
The Saturday School Per Lesson Fee is ¥7,900, but we deduct the cost of 2 free lessons from the total price each term. This way, you can join Saturday School without worrying about missing out on family plans.
For example, in the 2024-2025 1st Term, there are 16 lessons:
Full Price: 16 x ¥7,900 = ¥126,400
You Pay: ¥126,400 - ¥15,800 (2 free lessons) = ¥110,600
We believe this approach takes the pressure off families, and shows our commitment to the importance of both family time and learning for young students.
You don’t have to miss any lessons, though! If your child attends every session, the 2 free lessons are just a bonus.
Fees for New Members
For families joining Saturday School for the first time:
Application Fee: ¥10,000 (Non-Refundable)
Registration Fee: ¥35,000 (One-time)
Important Information About Tuition
Please note that all tuition fees are non-refundable once the class has started. If you need to cancel, we encourage you to review our refund schedule, which can be found on the Admissions page. Before applying, we kindly ask that all parents agree to our tuition policies. Please also be aware that prices are subject to change.
