Outline:

The objective of this course is to enable students to communicate effectively and express themselves independently, including a higher level of understanding, flexible ideas and thinking, and rich oral expression, targeting Japanese expressions used in social life.

Style:

Classes will be based on practical application of expressions.
In addition, the ability to understand and express oneself will be cultivated through the study of honorifics and other language and the study of kanji (Chinese characters).

Notice:

Students should prepare their own books (excluding comics, magazines, and textbooks) as there will be a "reading time" at the beginning of each period.
