The "interest search function" of the renewed service makes it easier to find a teacher who matches the child's interests, and the "new calendar function" has greatly increased the number of class hours available for selection.
The important thing is to meet with a teacher who can deepen the child's interest
Since its service launch in July 2021, "SCOLABO" has been providing a place where children can gain independent learning experiences based on their own curiosity. In order to live in an era of rapid change in which it is becoming more and more necessary for children to think for themselves, we believe that it is important for children to have the knowledge and guidance they need, rather than the existing standardized and packaged education system. and passionate about what they want to do, and provide them with the necessary knowledge and signposts.
We have renewed the website to make it easier for children to meet teachers who can be role models for them.
Search function to find a teacher that matches the child's interests and next class invitation function to continue fostering interest
Simply enter the child's field of interest and the name of the teacher from the search form or icon, and the most suitable teacher will be displayed from among approximately 150 SCOLAB teachers consisting of current students from top universities such as MIT and the University of Tokyo, as well as researchers with expertise in the field.
In addition, after attending a class with the teacher, the teacher will guide the child to the "next class he/she should take" according to each child's interests and progress. The teacher will be able to continuously deepen the child's interests as if accompanying the child.
New calendar feature that allows students to choose the date and time of their choice, so they don't miss the timing of their child's curiosity
School, homework, cram school, and lessons on weekends. In between, they play with friends, play games, watch YouTube, etc. Today's elementary school students have a very busy schedule. Even with such a busy schedule, children's curiosity never ceases, and it is very difficult to find the time for them to use educational services that match their interests.
The "New Calendar Function" displays on the calendar the days and times when the teacher you wish to attend classes is available. Previously, the class schedule was fixed in advance, and students could not take a class unless their schedule conflicted with the class. With the new feature, the number of available class dates and times will increase significantly, and students will be able to make reservations simply by selecting the desired date and time from the teacher's calendar.
Many other areas have also changed as a result of the renewal. For more information, please visit
