Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
Want to learn Japanese with a friend or in a semi-private group? 🇯🇵

Konichiwa! 👋🏼⁠ 🇯🇵

  Join me for an exciting journey to learn Japanese in a fun and interactive way. 

In this semi- private  Japanese language course for young kids, we'll embark on engaging adventures that will spark their curiosity and enthusiasm for the Japanese language and culture. We'll lay the foundation for a lifelong love of Japanese through engaging lessons and playful activities.

Our language acquisition method is based on short stories ranging from 25-50 words, which we break down using our decoding system. This approach helps your kids understand the language structure without having to memorize gammar rules. We believe that language learning can be fun and engaging, and that's why we have developed lovable characters like Salt the cat, Pepper the dog, and Sunny the Squirrel to help your kids learn.
