Message from our principal
I am very grateful and blessed to have learned Shichida Method.
I have taught Shichida Method more than 20 years in Japan. My students are from wide range of ages, from unborn babies to elementary school children. Each student has surprised me with his/her wonderful potentials.
After learning early age education at my university, I had spent my early career as a system engineer. However, with a long-time a passion for teaching young children I was curious to visit a Shichida Child Academy where I live, which was not so well-known at that time. This was my first time to experience Shichida method.
I used to think that “early age education is to force children to learn even though they are not willing to”. Fun activities, productive curriculums… Shichida Method changed my wrong recognition dramatically. I still remember children’s unbelievable abilities and their faces with full of excitement. I was very moved to feel that this is the education which I had really wanted to see. Even after 20 years from then, children still surprise me every day by how much potentials they have. Every time I see my students’ wonderful developments, I am overjoyed to have experienced Shichida Method education.
In 2001, I came to Canada for the first time with my 4-year-old son to study English. My son is the proof of the tremendous results obtained through Shichida method education and as a result, he proved he could master English as native level and kept up with Canadian kids at school. It might be fate that I opened Shichida schools in Vancouver in 2011 to share our story and to help other parents succeed with their children’s talent and ability development.
Our school curriculums are designed for learning through fun activities. We accept each student’s personality, encourage and bring out their motivations to learn. Please come visit us for a trial lesson! You may change the way you view your child in early age education and discover their hidden abilities.

This is the golden time for babies who have genius-like absorbing power!!
Every baby is born with unlimited potentials and childhood is the best time for the brain development. Right after baby is born, he/she learns the necessary abilities from his/her environment. The more fitting and challenging his/her environment is, the stronger the baby’s absorbing power and higher their intelligence will grow. This will lead the development of great abilities.
The development of a baby’s potentials will depend on how much appropriate stimulations the parents can give.
However, at Shichida we think that the cultivation of children’s heart is the most important aspect.We don’t support giving educational inputs when children themselves don’t enjoy learning even though they are at the golden age of learning.
Our hope is to expand children’s natural and unlimited potentials through fun learning with their parents and fellow students.
