This course is suitable for students who have learned Hiragana & Katakana and have a knowledge of very basic Kanji like numbers, time, date and days of the week. Also, the class is recommended for students who already learned expressions of time, date and verbs in everyday life, etc. For the example; 「nichiyōbi no asa kuji ni kaimono ni ikimasu」(I go shopping at 9 o’clock on Sunday morning). We use the textbook “MARUGOTO Starter A1 activities” in the class and studied up to Lesson11 in the textbook.
During the course you will learn to:
- Understand and use familiar everyday expressions and basic phrases, aimed at the satisfaction of needs of a concrete type.
- Ask and answer simple questions in areas on familiar topics like daily events, asking for directions, how to use public transportation.
- practice making a short speech about yourself.
- learn very basic kanji more.
- learn knowledge about Japanese culture, e.g. seasonal events.
- Understand basic verbs more on daily events and how to use basic particle.
The course is centered around conversation practice. We also will welcome you if you would like to brush up your speaking ability after you have learnt for a year around.
Please don’t hesitate to ask a tutor before if you are not sure which class is suitable for the level of your Japanese.
