This is a course taught in English. If you are interested in the Japanese language but you do not speak Dutch, this will be a great opportunity for you. The lessons will be online and will cover basic grammar, basic vocabulary as well as some new kanji characters. The hiragana and katakana characters have already been covered and will be used in assignments and during the lessons.

The teacher will also pay some attention to Japanese cultural aspects like: What kind of festival is ‘Golden week” and how do Japanese people celebrate ‘kodomo-no-hi’?

In other words, a perfect start to the Japanese language for those with some basic knowledge!

During this course period, we will work on the course material Marogoto A2, chapter 13. This is a group on a pre-intermediate level. The learning speed of this group is fairly high. Marugoto is a fun method with lots of online material, color pictures, video’s etc. During this course knowledge of the hiragana and katakana characters is expected, as well as knowledge of a few kanji which are used throughout the course material. We will also put a lot of focus on speech (by using the Can-do exercises) as well as listening.

This course will be taught in English!

Although the pronunciation of Japanese is not the most difficult part of learning the language, we will listen a lot in order to get the right intonation and to get used to speed. All MP3 files are recorded by native speakers.

During this course, we will focus on the internationally recognized exam JLPT (Japanese language Proficiency Test).

This test consists of 5 levels, where we will focus on N5. This is the starter level, Which means that the course is available to people with little prior experience with the Japanese language. However, knowledge of the hiragana and katakana characters is expected as the course material is completely in Japanese writing. During the course we will also work on the kanji required for this level. You can participate in this examination 1 time every year, at the University in Leiden. Please note take the participation fee is not included in the course fee.

This course will be taught in English!

Asides from N5, the other levels of the JLPT consist of N4, N3, N2 and N1, of which the last level equals a “near native” level of understanding. Nichiran offers courses for the levels N5 (in English) and N4 (in Dutch). Private lessons are available for the levels N3, N2 and N1.
