weekly japanese course

About weekly course

You can enter the course every Monday. Minimum learning period is 1 week.

We make it possible to join the short term course by weekly basis. Entry is possible on every Monday. ( For the people with zero Japanese, the course starts every first Monday of the month )

Effective course cuiculum.

In the short term course, it is important to focus on the target. We focus on the expressions which are necessary to communicate in Japanese. For example, we teach honorable expressions that are fluently used in the earlier phase of the lesson althouth it is grammatically difficult.

How the lesson is taught

After a day of lesson, you will be able to do one new thing using Japanese. The class is focus on conversation, trying to let the students communicate by expressions of the day. The other thing we put emphasis on is the accuracy. In order to be able to speak Japanese accurately, we have a period called ‘training’ In this lesson, the students for instance practice a conjugated forms over and over. We also have a lesson called‘shadowing’ everyday, which to follow immediately after what the teachers are saying. This is to learn how the native Japanese pronounces and make intonations. In studying Kanji, we try to build up your vocabularies as well as teach Kanji which is used widely in daily life.
