History[edit]

He came across the younger a child was, the more capable they proved to be in assimilating substantial amounts of information and cultivating a profound passion for learning.
This observation compelled Makoto to conduct research into developmental brain distinctions and teaching techniques for a span of 25 years. The outcome of this research led to the establishment of the Shichida Method of Education.
According to Makoto Shichida, “Shichida Education is a soul education. The main aim of the Shichida Method is not just to give children knowledge but to cultivate their heart and soul.”[1]
