Aim to become a Commerce Course high school teacher! Take on the challenge and pass the exam!!
Research Themes
In the Kondo seminar, students aim to become high school Commerce Course teachers and conduct research on three major themes.
The first is about issues related to education in general. Students will research and discuss various educational issues that have been covered in newspapers and other media, and summarize their own thoughts on the subject. The second is about teaching methods for the subject of "commerce." Students will learn the basic knowledge and skills of the 20 Commerce Course through textbook research and fieldwork. The third is about the current state of public school teacher recruitment exams. Students will conduct research based on actual teacher recruitment exam questions and analyze the trends.
Activities
I am involved in a variety of activities to achieve my goal of becoming a teacher.
- Operates "Kids Business Town® Ichikawa" to teach business to children (in collaboration with Nakazawa Seminar, held every March)
- Participation in Chiba University of Commerce Educational Research Association, which is made up of CUC alumni and faculty members (every August)
- A two-year seminar camp in Okinawa for the purpose of peace education (every September)
- "Employment exam preparation study session" held once a week to help students pass the exam
Student Voices
Department of Commerce Ryuichi Toyama
Kondo Seminar is characterized by the friendly relationships among its students and the high level of individual motivation. Students can study hard to prepare for the high-quality teacher recruitment exam while competing with each other. We also actively participate in an educational event called "Kids Business Town Ichikawa." This event has been running for over 10 years and makes a significant contribution to the local community. We hope you will support Kondo Seminar!
Department of Commerce Manaka Koyama
In the Kondo seminar, students not only engage in individual activities, but also have many opportunities for collaborative learning, such as group work. As a result, I would say that the relationships with fellow seminar members are much closer than in other seminars. Also, since everyone shares the same goal of becoming a teacher, we support each other and work hard during our busy teacher training programs. We actively participate in a variety of activities, and interact with a diverse range of people, not just seminar students, but also university students, working adults, and local residents. This is truly a seminar that "connects people"!
