GAKKEN Classroom prog aim to develop children’s fundamental knowledge i science and mathematics, nurture a self- learning attitude and ability, enable students to learn at their own pace and provide a fun and exciting edutainment environment.
Gakken Classroom, the leading provider of science and mathematics education with 70 years of experience in Japan, embarked on a major expansion plan in Malaysia by establishing its affiliated company Gakken Education Malaysia Sdn Bhd in December last year.
“Gakken Classroom has been actively cultivating the love of science and mathematics in Malaysian children between the ages of four and 12 since last year.
“Based on the Japanese syllabus, our programmes help children discover the joy of learning science and mathematics, build their selfconfidence and impart knowledge that will complement what they have learnt in school,” says Gakken Education Malaysia chief executive officer Hiroaki Miyahara.
In the Gakken Science Experiment Classroom, students are divided into small groups and use experiment kits provided by Gakken Classroom. Covering 36 themes, Gakken science experiments are conducted individually, in a group or demonstrated by a teacher.
All lessons are based on three key principles – observe, explore and reflect. The activity- based and hands- on learning allows children to see, feel and manipulate.
Gakken Math Classroom develops children’s ability to think and solve mathematical problems independently, using illustrated worksheets designed to get children interested in learning.
Teachers guide children to find answers and children proceed to the next level only after they have fully understood a lesson.
Presently, Gakken Classroom has eight centres in Malaysia – seven in the Klang Valley and one in Sibu, Sarawak, to cater to the growing educational needs of 5,000 students.
