Japanese 1 is designed for beginners with little or no knowledge of the language. The course covers a variety of everyday situations such as introducing yourself and others, telling the time and shopping.

Classwork will emphasise listening, speaking, and practice of sentence structure. Self-study will consist of reviewing work done in class and practicing language skills, as advised by the tutor. Writing and reading Japanese letters (Kana) are also part of self-study, using the handouts provided and with the tutor’s support.

Week by week Course Outline is available on request. However, the contents may change depending on the students demand and proficiency.
