Shinohara Juku Launches New Online 'Premium Course' Featuring a Full Money-Back Guarantee

Shinohara Juku Co., Ltd. (Representative: Director Shinohara), an online individual tutoring school, has officially launched its 'Premium Course.' This new program includes a 'Success Guarantee,' under which the school will fully refund tuition fees if the student's academic deviation score does not increase within three months of starting the program.

Shinohara Juku has established a strong track record of admissions to Japan's top-tier institutions, including six consecutive years of successful applicants to Kyoto University and four consecutive years to Hitotsubashi University.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for online education among students living in rural areas has surged. However, there remains deep-seated concern regarding whether online instruction can truly lead to university admission. To address these anxieties and provide top-tier educational opportunities to students regardless of their location, the school decided to implement a full money-back guarantee based on absolute confidence in its instructional capabilities.

Background and Objectives: Bridging Regional Educational Gaps and Reducing Economic Risk

For students in rural areas, significant disparities still exist in access to high-quality instruction and the latest exam data required for competitive urban universities. Director Shinohara personally felt this gap more acutely after moving to Hokkaido.

While online schools have the potential to break down these barriers, psychological and economic hurdles—such as the fear that remote learning might not produce results—have remained. Based on its history of achieving 'comeback' admissions through specialized curricula, Shinohara Juku believes that any student can succeed from anywhere with the right approach. By sharing the risk with students and their families, the school provides an environment where students can focus entirely on their studies.

Three Key Features of the 'Premium Course'

1. Full Refund Guarantee if Grades Do Not Improve In the unlikely event that a student completes all assigned tasks but fails to improve their grades within three months, the school will refund the full tuition. This serves as a testament to the school's commitment to ensuring every student succeeds. (*Terms and conditions apply.)

2. Tailor-Made 'Comeback' Curriculum The school analyzes the gap between a student's current proficiency and their target university's requirements, specifying daily study content at a task level. This system ensures consistency and prevents students from falling behind or losing direction.

3. One-on-One Instruction by Professional Tutors Elite instructors who have cleared rigorous hiring standards provide intensive online coaching. This allows students in any region to receive the same high-level instruction found in major metropolitan areas such as Tokyo.

Comment from Representative Director Shinohara

"In the traditional tutoring industry, it has been the norm that tuition is not returned even if results are not achieved. However, we are entrusted with our students' lives. The newly established Premium Course is an expression of our confidence and responsibility to ensure our students pass their target universities. We want to reduce the number of students who give up on their dreams due to financial concerns or geographical disadvantages. We will walk alongside students from all over Japan as they soar toward their futures."
