授業は少グループでのタスク（ペアワーク・グループワーク）を中心とする。日本語使用は最低限とし、基本的に授業内は英語でコミュニケーションを行う。幅広い分野の題材・内容についてリサーチ、プレゼンテーション、グループデイスカッション等を行う。　
The classroom language will basically be English. The teacher may use Japanese in special situations or to explain very difficult concepts, but students should be prepared to hear and speak English every time. Each class will mainly involve communicative activities such as pair work and/or group discussions, as well as a review of selected reading strategies and some key grammar points and vocabulary.

授業準備として必ず事前に指示した箇所・課題のリーデイングをし、必要な文法・語彙やの内容理解の確認または質問したい事項をまとめておくこと（約1時間）。授業内で行うペアワーク・少グループでデイスカッション等に積極的に参加できるよう、テーマについて考えをまとめておくこと（約1時間）。
Students must read the assigned reading materials (sometimes before class, sometimes after) and be prepared for communicative classroom tasks in every lesson (e.g., comprehension questions, group discussions) and to share their ideas and opinions in class. To do this, students must read the assigned reading materials well enough to understand the linguistic aspects and the content messages of English texts for group discussions.
