This is course 1.9 in the “Let’s Learn Japanese” series. This course assumes that students have already learned the Hiragana and Katakana writing systems along with some basic Kanji characters. It also builds upon Japanese grammar and phrases learned from previous classes. For new students that have already spent a little time learning Japanese, please contact me beforehand so I can give you a recommendation on where to start. For absolute beginners, I recommend taking my “Let’s Learn Japanese 1.1: Hiragana” course first. Please see the link below for more information:
