Fun learning Japanese
with native students
What is it?
Palaygo School is an online Japanese conversation learning platform designed for primary and junior high school students. We offer an innovative program that allows students to learn the Japanese vocabulary and expressions they learned in the classroom accurately and safely in a real environment while having fun communicating with Palaygo students in Japan.
Not only can you choose the most suitable program based on your students' Japanese levels and goals, but you can also maximize your students' learning effect by combining multiple programs.
Three programs to dramatically improve your students' Japanese conversation skills
Palaygo Mail: An email exchange program to improve your Japanese writing and reading skills
Palaygo Talk: Improve your speaking skills while enjoying online Japanese conversation
Palaygo Tour: Learn practical Japanese while experiencing foreign cultures on a short-term study-abroad tour to a local school in Japan
* Conversely, it is also possible to accept students from Japan coming to Australia for short-term study abroad as homestay guests, promoting international exchange through two-way travel.
At Palaygo School, you can learn Japanese in a fun way while interacting with native speakers of the same generation!
You can practice the Japanese you learned at school with students of the same age in Japan!
Communicate and learn at any Japanese level through a special and safe Mail system!
Emails are only sent to Palaygo students who have been pre-identified and approved students in Japan. Our unique and enclosed proprietary system, which cannot be used with regular emails, prevents spam and suspicious emails, ensuring safe communication between students.
Regardless of the Japanese level, students can have fun and easily communicate on common topics, just as if they were communicating with native friends of the same age.
Students will be able to communicate about their own culture and familiar topics and understand and respect the culture of Japan.
Our proprietary "Palette System" example sentences, which are different from translations, support correct Japanese writing. This leads to understanding of Japanese sentence structure, expressions, and pronunciation.
Students can communicate with native speakers of their generation on specific topics in a Q&A format.
For primary school students
★What makes it different from other emails?
Chat face-to-face with Palaygo students in a one-on-one live and safe video chat! Students can practice the vocabulary and expressions they learn at school with students of similar ages in Japan and learn from them!
A safe system design. Each student in the class can enjoy one-on-one, safe and secure conversations with a native Japanese student who is learning English. (Different from group conversations such as Zoom.)
Our unique "Palette System" allows students to converse smoothly with each other regardless of their Japanese ability. Interacting with students of the same age is fun and increases students' motivation to learn Japanese.
Students can have conversations and discussions with native speakers of the same generation on specific topics in a Q&A format.

I want to test my Japanese skills!
I want to actually meet and stay with the Palaygo students I interact with online on a regular basis!
I'm thinking about studying abroad for a long period of time in the future, but before that I want to experience a local school to get a feel for the real thing!

Head English Teacher
Palette is a unique tool that connects Australian students studying Japanese with Japanese students studying English, allowing them to teach each other their languages. It is packed with content that students will want to talk about and useful expressions, and is designed to make language differences less of a hurdle.

A year ago, my daughter had no interest in English at all, but now she loves it! She even dreams of going to Australia someday and meeting her friends. Watching my daughter broaden her interests by absorbing English as a part of play, rather than as a study, I think this is a truly wonderful program.

I improved my English reading and writing skills. I'm glad I was able to make friends with a child in Australia through messaging. (5th grade girl)

I can talk to students of the same age, so we have a lot to talk about, and it's fun to learn about school, food, games, and other things over there. I'm glad I found Parego. (3rd year middle school boy)
