The Tokyo Spelling Bee- What's all the buzz about?

Whether your student is preparing for the SSAT, looking to improve their boarding school application, or simply searching for academic enrichment, they will find that participating in a spelling bee is an invaluable and unforgettable experience! 

 

Welcome to the Tokyo Spelling Bee: a fun, low-stakes competition where students can test their spelling skills among peers. Every student, from a budding bee to a seasoned competitor, will find an exciting challenge at the Tokyo Spelling Bee. 

 

A century-old and with millions of contestants every year, the spelling bee is the ultimate test of a student’s spelling ability. It is a fun and exciting competition in which students are challenged to spell a variety of words, increasing in difficulty as the competition progresses.
