We use the textbook“You can speak Japanese” focused to nourish communication skill in Japanese. We cultivate your abilities to communicate your thoughts for interactive conversation in Japanese that helps you connect with other people smoothly.
In Syonan Japanese Academy Hamamatsu Campus, we usually take a group learning approach that develops relaxed atmosphere for interactive communication with other students. By learning together, students will naturally learn how to respect other people’s ideas and opinions, develop the spirit of mutual support, and gain the discussion-leading skill for higher collaboration. In addition, we also have classes using Power Point slides that makes complicated grammar learning easier. In these classes, practical Japanese language skills and sociability will be cultivated.
