Study Abroad Course
Enrollment period: April, October (twice a year).
Available course lengths: 2 year, 1 and a half years and 1 year
This course was designed to help students build a strong Japanese foundation while polishing their speaking skills, which will aid them in passing the JLPT or furthering their education in universities, graduate schools or vocational schools. We aim to allow students to do more than just study the required grammar. Instead, students will have the opportunity to use the grammar and vocabulary taught in class to actively practice communcating with others, allowing them to acquire "useable Japanese" starting from the beginner level.

Students may have just enrolled in the school, but this foundational period greatly affects one's proficiency upon graduation. The course is designed to help students understand the basic structure of the Japanese language and the best ways to study.
Course materials: Minna no Nihongo I, II etc
Target level: JLPT N5, N4
Materials used: Integrated Approach to Intermediate Japanese, etc.
Target goal: Passing the JLPT N3-N2 level.
Building upon what students have learned in the elementary level, more complex forms of Japanese will be introduced. Students will learn about Japanese culture, customs, thoughts and beliefs, equipping them with the necessary knowledge to communicate smoothly with Japanese people.
Study more complex Japanese, such as television and newspaper articles. They will learn how to glean information from graphs and data, as well as summarize their own thoughts, opinions and speculations. They will be exposed to difficult situations in order to further improve their conversational skills.
