Let's Learn Japanese 1.8: Places and Directions

Over the course of 8 lessons, students will learn Japanese names for common places that you come across in cities and towns. We will learn how to receive and give directions on how to get to these places. In grammar, we will learn new prepositions, particles, and how to make longer sentence structures.  19 new 漢字 (Kanji) characters will be introduced.

This course will primarily be presented in PowerPoint format. The beginning of each class is usually spent reviewing characters and worksheets.  Next, we learn new kanji characters, vocabulary words, and sentence patterns. When necessary, time is also spent on grammar to help students understand the structure of new sentence patterns. Learning will be supplemented with activities such as conversation practice, role-playing scenarios, listening exercises, and information-gap/ memory games.
