Learning support classes for children connected to foreign countries

Since Kanagawa Ward is long from east to west, we are aiming to establish volunteer-run learning support classes for children connected to foreign countries in eight locations, including seven with community care plazas and the Hazawa district.

Learning support classes currently being held

If you would like to take the classes, please contact the Kanagawa Ward Multicultural Lounge.

We are looking for learning support volunteers

We are looking for people who can enjoy studying together with children connected to other countries who can speak Japanese but are not good at learning languages. Learning support in Japanese is basic. It’s okay if you can’t speak a foreign language.

Introduction to online information service “Kotokoto”

We would like to introduce “Kotokoto“, an online information service established by Kids Door, a certified NPO, to support families with overseas roots living in Japan.
Difficult topics related to Japanese schools and child-rearing are described in three languages: easy Japanese, English, and Chinese (simplified characters). Specifically, we provide easy-to-understand explanations of complex information that you may not know who to ask, such as the content of school events, what you need to bring, the role of parents, various benefits and loans, and Japan’s unique culture. .
