Winter 2023 Beginning I part 3 Japanese class

This is an introductory course for those who have never received formal language instructions and are interested in learning Japanese from the basic level. The course focuses on oral communication, and everyday Japanese culture. Enrolling students should have some limited exposure to learning Japanese. Basic knowledge of hiragana, katanaka and up to 20 kanji is expected. 

This is an introductory course, the 3rd sequential class (Part 3) after completing Parts 1 and 2, for students who study Japanese in a formal setting for the first time.

We use The Japan Foundation’s Marugoto: Japanese Language and Culture Starter A1 Coursebook.

This class is designed to help you reach CEFR Level A1 proficiency-Basic User. The aim of this course is to have fun learning Japanese while looking at photographs and illustrations, and experiencing Japanese lifestyle and culture. You will become able to take part in simple exchanges in different situations through listening to a variety of recorded conversations and doing speaking activities.

This course is also suitable for those who start Japanese learning with very little experience.  The enrolling students are interested in formal training of the language learning, covering both spoken and written language skills.
