Class Experience

In this class, learners will learn useful expressions for natural communication. I will use mainly Japanese in this class.
All writings will be in Hiragana, Katakana, and basic Kanji. 

Followings are an example of lessons for the first four weeks.

Week 1 (Jan 1) Talk about your Japanese learning experience.
Week 2 (Jan 8) Tell others how to cook your favourite dish.
Week 3 (Jan 15) Write about your room.
Week 4 (Jan 22) Tell others about your town. (history, your favourite pizza shop, funny neighbours, etc.)

Each week, I will use slides to show pictures. 
Each class has a topic to cover, but there is a room for learners to request other topics of their interest. 

This class is for learners who can easily speak simple sentences.
