Frequently Asked Questions​

 01 01   Is it okay for a complete beginner in English?

​​

Whether you've never studied English before or don't understand the basic words, there's nothing wrong with it. The RITZ method allows you to remember words naturally . Many people who have studied English are still reluctant to speak. Even beginners do not have a big problem in learning English from the beginning, and on the contrary, there is a possibility that they can learn English in the shortest time.

The RITZ method and curriculum are " contents that capture the essence and foundation of English ", so in fact, the contents are the same for beginners to advanced users. Therefore, anyone at any level can go to the next level.

Each lesson is one-on-one, so please listen to anything.

 

 02 02   I don't know my level or the course that suits me.

Even if you don't know where to start, you can measure your English ability once you have counseling. If you just check the level, you can actually do it in less than 5 minutes, but if you come to the trial lesson, you will be able to select a more detailed learning method and curriculum. If you are uncertain about the basic master course and the English conversation master course, or if you have any questions or concerns about English, please feel free to contact us.

 

 

  03 03   Is there a fixed learning method or curriculum that you can do yourself?

Yes. All courses use RITZ original methods and curriculum . There are many people who cannot speak English no matter how much they study, so all lessons will be conducted using the original learning method developed to realize that "you will be able to speak English". We will prepare a "practical English" practice method tailored to each person, along with both "speaking phrases" and "pronunciation acquisition" approaches. We will also prepare effective learning methods that you can do when you are alone or at home, so you will be able to learn English while having fun and experiencing it.

  04 04   Do you improve your English even once a week?

​​

Yes. Of course it is possible with RITZ! In a normal English conversation school, there is no basic "method", so the content is to repeat random free conversations in group lessons forever, but RITZ's "Capturing the essence and roots of English" If you have a "method" and a "curriculum that follows the process of learning the correct language (English)", you will definitely improve your English (speaking) even once a week!

By spending a year slowly familiarizing yourself with the "essence of English" and building "unforgettable English", you will be able to improve while " reliably dropping the lesson content" at the student's pace. Some people are familiar with English (speaking). At RITZ, " more than the amount of effort you put into speaking and pronunciation " will surely grow!

  05 05   Is it possible to change the course on the way?

​​

Yes. Basically, it is a monthly course, but it can be changed. I have improved my daily conversation so much, so if you are interested in other courses such as "I want to be able to use it at work" or "I want to get a TOEIC score", please feel free to contact us. Regarding the fee, only the adjustment of the difference will be made, and it will be more profitable than taking the business course or the exam preparation course again.

  06 06   What happens to my lesson reservations and changes?

​​

You can reserve lessons until the day before the lesson. If you are applying for the course, you can make a reservation weekly. Lessons are held from 13:30 to 21:00 on weekdays and from 12:00 to 19:00 on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, so please request a convenient time.

Please note that this is a one-on-one lesson, so in principle, if you cancel two days before the entire course, the lesson will be exhausted. You can change the course time on the day until the day before if there are no lessons in the time zone before and after.

  07 07   Can I take lessons with my friends and colleagues?

​​

Yes, of course it is possible. Semi-playbate lessons can be arranged for those who wish to have lessons with friends. For those who are reluctant to start alone, semi-private lessons not only allow you to learn in a more relaxed atmosphere, but also deepen your understanding by listening to and actually understanding your partner's talk. In addition, you can prepare and review each other together outside of the lessons, which has the advantage of improving your English faster.
* Limited to 2 people. We do not take lessons for 3 or more people at all because it can cause "factors that slow down the progress of English". The difference in English level between the two is irrelevant, but it is a condition that they are on good terms. In addition, there are various conditions, but there is also a discount on the lesson fee, so please contact us for details. Online is not possible.
 08 08   Is there any cost such as entrance fee?

​​

The admission fee will be free if you apply for each course and pay in a lump sum. The admission fee includes the curriculum fee such as teaching materials. Please note that a separate entrance fee + system fee of 20,000 yen will be required for monthly payments. You may decide after taking a trial lesson or a one-off lesson, so please feel free to inquire about the price etc.
  09 09   Is it possible to take lessons outside of Shinagawa?
Please note that all lessons are currently being held in Shinagawa, so it is not possible to move each lesson to other than Shinagawa. If you live outside of Japan or Kanto but have trouble with English, or if you need lessons in a specific place because of privacy, please contact us directly. We will provide counseling on the best lesson methods such as online lessons.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the lesson content or school, please feel free to contact us. I am looking forward to seeing you in the lesson.
  Ten   Do you offer one-off lessons?
All RITZ course lessons are "completion type & achievement type master courses" and "course setting every 24 times is the standard". By taking the "24/48 times course" etc. all at once, the price is set to half that of a normal school. We also offer one-off lessons, but as with regular schools, the unit price per lesson will be higher and will not be subject to the campaign setting .
In addition, we also offer 2 to 8 short-term lessons, but we recommend the course because we want you to be able to speak "real native English" at RITZ to the end. First of all, please experience the "law for speaking" in the trial lesson. We will guide you through short-term lessons and one-off lessons with free trial lessons.
  11   Is it possible to take lessons in the morning?
We are very sorry, but RITZ does not offer morning lessons.
Daily lessons are held from 14:00 to 21:00 on weekdays and from 12:00 to 19:00 on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.
The reason is that the representative instructor "provides and maintains the maximum lesson performance every day" as a "problem of lesson quality".
I am often asked questions, so I will explain in detail below.
The first reason is that all RITZ lessons are conducted by the representative instructor. RITZ lessons are for making "the foundation and foundation of the most important part of English" that cannot be taught by other schools and native speakers in the world into "English of a living thing that you will never forget even if you learn it". We are doing it. Unfortunately, at this stage, it is something that other natives cannot teach.
The second reason is that in order to improve each person's English and speaking in the maximum and shortest time, one lesson, which is unusual for RITZ one-on-one, is two consecutive lessons in 90 minutes. The instructor will do his best to do both "speaking" and the second "systematic lesson". Therefore, there will be lessons until 21:00 on weekdays and corrections for speaking after that, so at least 12 hours of "brain recovery time" will be required until the next lesson. "It takes more than 3 hours for the brain to reach its maximum performance even after waking up," but if you use your brain to the maximum, it will take longer to recover. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we appreciate your understanding. If you really want to, please contact us directly. Special lessons are also available.
