Our school

Machida International Kids school is a special place. We are a locally owned family run school with a tight knit community feel. Children attending MIK school come from all over the world so our approach caters to a diverse range of languages and cultures. Because we are a small school, we are able to give our students a lot of individual attention. We are a down-to-earth and friendly school with aspirations to keep things simple, transparent and fun for all stakeholders. We endeavour to give our children a solid early years foundation from which to launch their elementary school experience. We appreciate individual differences between children at the early years and at MIK, we endeavour to give all our students the freedom to be who they really are.​​​​

Testimonials

今年の1月からMIKに通っています。0歳の時から自宅や英会話スクールで英語教育はしていましたがMIKに通い始めてから格段に英語力が伸びています。 外国籍の生徒が多いということであまり馴染めないのではないか、他のお友だちとコミュニケーションが取れないのではないかと心配しておりましたが周りのお友だちがとても優しく、娘も楽しんで通っています。子供たち同士や先生との会話の中で英語を覚えているようなので活きた英語を覚えてきます。 また、英語だけではなくスペイン語の言葉や歌にも興味を持ち、たくさん覚えてよく話したり歌ったりしています。 そしてMs.Alexを始めMIKの皆様はすごく子どもに愛情があり、私もMIKの皆様から学ぶことがたくさんあります。 私も娘も大好きなスクールですので入園を迷われている方に本当にお勧めします。

Since the first day our son started MIK, He has loved every minute of the school day! He was so shy and MIK has helped him blossom and we couldn’t be happier about our decision to enroll him in MIK. The teachers and staff are exceptional and our son loves to go to school every day. We are also excited that he is learning two languages – Spanish, Japanese and he loves it too! We recommend MIK to any Parent looking for a great school with great teachers.

遊びながら英語を身につけられたらと思いスクールに通わせてます。 前のスクールでは週2日で通ってました。MIKスクールは週5日で不安もありましたが、“楽しかった！” とテンション高く帰って来ます。 安心して預けられます。

My daughter has attended M.I.K. for five months now, and I am very satisfied with the grwowth I have seen. She has flourished academically, and linguistically. The director/teacher, Miss Alex, is truly knowledgeable about early childhood education and second/multi-language acquisition. The good rapport she has established is apparent because my daughter is genuinely excited about going to school each morning. This school’s unique approach to multi-lingual education (Japanese, English, Spanish) initially sparked my interest and I am so glad I decided to enroll my daughter at this school. I highly recommend Machida International School.
