Core Japanese course

20 LESSONS / WEEK

The main part of your course will be our core Japanese course, which consists of the following:

  • Two grammar lessons every day
  • Two language skills (reading, writing, listening, speaking) lessons every day
The 10 grammar classes per week focus on the essential points of Japanese grammar, while the 10 language-skills classes teach students how to use the grammar they learnt in speaking, listening, reading and writing.

Conversation module

4 lessons / week

These lessons allow students to use their abilities in everyday situations, becoming proficient in the communicational aspect of the language.

Culture module

5-6 lessons / week

Japanese culture is such and integral and intrinsic part of really understanding the language. That's why we also offer 5-6 additional hours of intensive cultural lessons to students (due to availability they might take place on Saturdays).
