Join us and let’s study and practice Japanese together in conversation, led by Hiromi Lathrop. Hiromi is a qualified Japanese language instructor with over 11 years teaching experience. 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 7-8:15pm.
Class TV2 is for improving beginners – for those who studied last term, or who have a solid understanding, recognition and recall hiragana and katakana. You have probably done some study in a group setting before, or perhaps significant self-study, but aren’t able to express a range of basic structures without support. Note this class is not for ABSOLUTE beginners. To reiterate, you should be able to recognize hiragana and many katakana characters (albeit not perfectly) BEFORE class starts. If you’re not sure, then your should definitely choose TV1.
We will study Chapters 3 & 4 of Genki 1 textbook. Wednesdays 5:30 – 6:45pm.
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.
