Welcome to Beginner's Japanese: Testing the Waters In this class we will learn some very basic Japanese conversation (Good morning! How are you? etc.). We will also have fun learning about the three main Japanese writing systems (and practice writing a few characters). We will have a brief introduction to Japanese pronunciation, and a brief introduction to the language as a whole. This is the perfect class for "testing the waters" to see what you think of language learning and the Japanese language. It's a great first step in learning Japanese.
Learning Goals
-Learn basic Japanese small talk with adequate pronunciation.
-Learn a few basics about the Japanese language (writing systems, how it's written, very broad grammar rules, etc.)
-Learn to enjoy the Japanese language, Japanese culture, and language learning in general!
Other Details

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi!
My name is Elijah Lubben. I have loved the Japanese language since I first began studying it almost eight years ago now! I have lived in Japan for two years and want to continue studying Japanese and improving my ability for the rest of my life! I love Japan, teaching Japanese, and continuing studying the Japanese language.
I also love playing Jazz Piano, and I hope to start teaching Jazz theory in the future too. I'm excited to see you in the classroom!
