Vector English School in Vancouver, Canada - School Features

A Unique Method for Efficient Learning in a Short Time

Classes are conducted primarily in Japanese, and all students are Japanese. By learning in Japanese, students can clearly understand the material and then use it effectively through practical exercises with native English-speaking instructors. This curriculum emphasizes “understanding first, then applying,” helping learners turn comprehension into real skills. It effectively develops English speaking ability at any level.

Instructors Who Deeply Understand Why Japanese Learners Struggle

“Even after studying abroad, I still can’t speak English.”
“I study English, but I never become fluent.”
VECTOR analyzed the reasons behind these frustrations and built its program on learning methods uniquely developed by experienced instructors. We also focus on helping students recognize and correct their own mistakes and weaknesses to strengthen their self-improvement skills.

Personalized English Coaching for Every Learner

Everyone’s English learning experience, goals, and study style are different. We propose the most suitable classes and learning methods tailored to your English level and objectives. Our instructors and staff monitor your progress and work with you to set the next goals.

High Satisfaction and Word-of-Mouth Growth

Since its founding in 2015, VECTOR has grown through word of mouth from graduates who improved their English using our original method. Highly rated by Japanese students studying abroad, we’ve helped over 3,800 learners* achieve results. Many students who initially plan to attend “just for a month” often continue for several months because they can feel their own progress — one of our school’s biggest strengths.

Our Courses

Vector English

Main Course

Grammar Input Class (up to 2 months)
This class is ideal for those who want to “start over with English” or who “know grammar but can’t speak.” Memorizing grammar rules alone doesn’t lead to speaking ability. Using Vector’s original “Spell Method,” this course activates memory and drills grammar patterns intensively, like muscle training, to make them usable in speaking. Students review and organize grammar starting from junior high school basics, ensuring that all English rules are thoroughly and accurately mastered from the ground up.

Conversation Output Class (up to 3 months)
A conversation-focused course designed to improve pronunciation, natural word order, and speaking fluency. Students practice putting correct grammar into spoken form. With Vector’s original “Pronunciation Method,” learners train until they can naturally produce English sounds—focusing on tongue position, sound placement, and breath control—so they can speak in a way that’s easily understood by native speakers. The class also helps students acquire practical daily expressions and develop the ability to express their thoughts quickly and confidently.

Practical Communication Class
This class aims not only to “speak English” but to “communicate deeply,” developing all language skills in a well-balanced way. The goal is to hold meaningful conversations on an equal footing with native speakers—communicating accurately, clearly, and spontaneously. Through various topic-based speaking tasks, students cultivate the ability to explore ideas in depth. The class also includes shadowing and writing practice using authentic materials such as news articles, helping learners master advanced English expressions. Highly recommended for those preparing for study abroad or relocation overseas.
