NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com), ICT solutions and international communications business within NTT (NYSE: NTT), announced this week the launch of a cloud-based Japanese-language educational service, “Visual Learning .Japanese,” in cooperation with the Shinjuku Japanese Language Institute (SNG).

Visual Learning .Japanese (VLJ) is an innovative service based on the effective Japanese language teaching method designed by SNG Principal Takahide Ezoe. The method, which Ezoe has spent many years developing, focuses on visualizing and structuring Japanese grammar with original cards and gestures, and forms the core of NTT Com’s cloud-based e-learning study materials.

On October 29, SNG launched its “blended learning” course, combining VLJ (online) and in-class lessons (offline). NTT Com and SNG will continue to jointly promote the VLJ and blended learning course to educational institutions both in and outside of Japan.
