I do not routinely give an assessment at the end of the class. However, if a student or parent would like an assessment, they may request one by emailing me.Class Experience
Have you ever been to Japan and got stuck? Do you want to go to Japan, but just too scared because you don't know the language? Well, have no fear this series will definitely help you. This course will bring you essential Japanese that you need to comfortably travel as well as provide you some history and culture behind the words as well. I really wish I'd had this series before I was living in Japan. I was thrown into Japanese life without any help, not knowing what to say or how to respond to situations. I probably made many mistakes. But with this Japanese course, you won't be making the same mistakes that I did. You will be able to: 1. Say basic greetings (Good morning, afternoon, evening) 2. How to say goodbye (Did you know there are different ways to say goodbye based on your relationship?) 3. Know the correct way to address people 4. Know how to introduce yourself for the first time 5. Say thank you and your welcome (Did you know that there are many different ways to say thank you and your welcome based on the different situations?) Plus as an extra bonus, I will throw in some interesting facts about the words you are learning called Sam's fun facts. Something that other courses probably won't mention You will definitely not want to miss this class. You will be surprised, a little Japanese will take you a long way.
