Japanese Language School and Classes

Intercultural Institute of Japan- Effective Short-Term Course
The short term course focuses on communication skills needed to learn to speak Japanese in a short period. The most important point to communicate in Japanese is to learn how to talk to people. You will learn how to use polite, friendly and honorific speech early in your course, which are necessary skills to start communicating immediately. Start with communication skills in the beginning and less-used phrases and vocabulary later in the course then you will not get stuck at the med-beginner level as many people do.

During special intonation and speech training periods, you will practice the phrases you learn until you can use them correctly and accurately. During kanji class, you will learn the written characters you see in everyday life and around you in Japan.
