Join us as we open up our textbooks and practice Japanese together in conversation, led by Hiromi Lathrop. Hiromi is a qualified Japanese language instructor with over 10 years teaching experience. Prior to that, Hiromi worked in Japan at several businesses. These classes are in-person, in downtown Salem.
Class TV1 is for absolute beginners (or those with a little self-study only). You have not had the opportunity to speak out loud or practice any study with others or a teacher. You don’t recognize the hiragana or katakana alphabets.
We will study Chapters 1 & 2 of the Genki 1 – 3rd edition textbook and workbook. Wednesdays 5:30-6:45pm.
Class TV4 is for improving beginners – you have probably done some study in a group setting before, or perhaps significant self-study, but aren’t comfortable freely expressing a range of basic structures in an unsupported environment. Note this class is not for ABSOLUTE beginners. You should be able to recognize hiragana and many katakana characters (albeit not perfectly) BEFORE class starts.
We will study Chapters 7 & 8 of Genki 1 textbook. Wednesdays 7-8:15pm.
Note: additional costs – JASO Membership (from $33/yr) https://jaso.org/individual-membership, Genki 1 3rd edition textbook and workbook (around $65). You must purchase membership AND textbook AND workbook in advance of first class.
