The flow of the regular course is as follows. Notice that a small adjustment is made with flexibility in syllabus and scheduling based on each studet's requirments. It aims at reaching the advanced level in one year with four skills especially with the emphasis on the spoken Japanese good enough for making speechs, sermons or presentations.
- STEP1Ground Work
- You are introduced to Basic Grammar, which is to cover Basic Grammar essential for JLPT-3, within one month. This is a really intensive program and explanation on grammar is given all in Basic English so you can grasp the big picture of the whole course quickly. Grammar is introduced in Dictation sentences with relevant daily expressions so you can use it the day you leran it.
- STEP2Coaching on colloqual Japanese
- You learn how you can get across what you have in mind using the vocabulary you have learned and create your own Japanese through debate, discussion and presentation. As in the basic course 3-minute impromptu speech is significant part of it.
- STEP3Coaching on more strategic Intermediate and Advanced spoken Japanese
- You are encouraged not only to enrich the vocabulary but also to polish the skill of debate, discussion, presentation and of deep dialogue. With the developed knowledge of 1,500 kanji you learn how to read essays of advanced Japanese and how to write creative essays with lots of euphemism and proverbs to stun people! This includes Task-Outing followed by group presentation, which is to aim at handling the real situation and people in cultural context so you can be more confident in your Japanese.
