[WAO High School Global Course] High School Study Abroad Seminar: Hear from Seniors About Their Study Abroad Experiences! - The Real Stories of International Students

WAO High School, a correspondence high school operated by WAO Future Academy (Location: Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture, Principal: Tsuyoshi Hirata) where students can learn philosophy, science, and economics through liberal arts inquiry, will hold an online "High School Study Abroad Seminar: Hear from Seniors About Their Study Abroad Experiences! - The Real Stories of International Students" on July 18 (Sat).

"Are you interested in studying abroad in high school in Australia, but what is life really like there?"

This is a special summer seminar to answer such questions! Students who have experienced long-term study abroad at partner schools in Australia from WAO High School's Global Course, a correspondence high school, will be on stage.

They will openly share the real, honest experiences of high school study abroad, from classes and homestay life to English learning and friendships, which can only be understood by those who have actually experienced them. They will not only share enjoyable episodes but also their struggles and how they overcame challenges, frankly conveying the solid growth that can be achieved through formal study abroad.

Furthermore, WAO High School's unique program that allows students to study abroad without repeating a grade, as well as its reliable support system, will be introduced in detail. We invite junior high school students and their parents who are considering their future paths to find hints for taking a step into the world this summer.

WAO High School's Mission

WAO High School's Vision

To make building one's own foundation through philosophy and forging a future the norm in the world.

WAO High School's Value

The philosophy of WAO Corporation, which has pursued "the thrill of learning" for approximately 50 years.

Cultivating the ability to think proactively by engaging in dialogue and learning philosophy.

Support system to realize individual futures, such as advancing to higher education, studying abroad, or starting a business.

A virtual campus connecting unique peers from all over the country.

An effective learning style that expands online and deepens in real life.

Why Study "Philosophy" at WAO High School?

In this era of diversity and change, there are no absolute answers given. Therefore, the ability to shape the future society with rich knowledge and flexible thinking is essential. "Philosophy" is a language game that refines "thinking" by seeking "universally valid" definitions of human activities. By re-examining the current society from a philosophical perspective, the world we see can appear completely different, and even familiar social issues can be viewed from a new angle. With the hope that high school students will have such an "eye-opening" experience, we conduct classes that involve repeated dialogue and thorough "thinking."
