Japonés para principiantes nivel 1: lecciones estructuradas dos veces por semana con práctica

PLEASE READ under the schedule to find out if the section of your choice is a new class or not.

///On note-taking and having note-taking supplies of your choice///
Note-taking is optional, but if your learner wish to retain what he/she is learning, or fully participate in games which are based on class materials, I highly advise the learners to take some notes.  I'm putting this here in writing because I've had some parents who were unhappy with their learners having to take notes, or remember what I taught in class to fully enjoy the class activities.  So yes, having note-taking supplies with you before class starts is highly recommended.  

***46 hiragana are introduced in the first 7 lessons along with different topics that we cover each lesson, but the class will not cover hiragana again once it is past learning the letters.
***No topics will be repeated, therefore you can jump in any time to learn new topics each lesson.
***Each section started at different time of the year per the request of learners starting school at different months.
***Each section of the class will require at least 6 students to open. When there aren't enough students to start a class, the starting date will be postponed to the following week or cancelled.


***Each section of the class will require at least 4 students to open. When there aren't enough students to start a class, the starting date will be extended to the following week.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
How is your class structured?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
We will meet in zoom for 30 minutes twice a week. 


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
How will you teach?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
On zoom through Outschool platform.


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
What's your teaching style?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Easy-going, but perhaps because of the subject I teach, most students are really respectful, which I truly appreciate.


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
How much will learners get to interact with you and each other (mention specifics like: lecture, games, slides, video clips, discussion)?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Learning a foreign language is all about interaction!! There will be interactive class activities for informal assessments.  Pair activities/assignments are designed to develop each student's 21st century skills such as collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. If you are a home school student who is looking for a formal assignment grades, I will be happy to work with you (but I need to know what is expected).


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Any required experience or knowledge learners need?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::
This is a beginner's class, but students will learn hiragana outside of class on their own with recommended materials.

If the student has learned Japanese for a year, or even self-studied Japanese for a year, should be comfortable in this level.
