Rebecca Yarita
Head of School/Representative Director
Ms. Rebecca Yarita joins us from the United States where she studied education at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with emphasis in language acquisition for students in grades K-12. Before arriving in Japan she worked in public and private schools in Wisconsin and also worked in adult education. While in Japan she has had the opportunity to work with the following curricula – US Common Core, UK National, and Cambridge International Examinations at various grade levels. She has been living in Japan for 15 years
She is a firm believer in evidence based practice, the method of making curricular and academic strategy decisions based on research and best practice. Due to this belief, the core areas of reading, writing and mathematics take high priority in her academic planning for the school. She also believes all students can learn and make progress with appropriate levels of support and encouragement at both school and home.
