The letters of the Japanese alphabet (called kanji) often don’t represent sounds like they do in other languages. For example, “hello” would be written as two different kanji characters in Japanese. That means typing on a computer can be challenging since you’re stuck having to choose words from lists of thousands of characters.
If it’s your first time learning Japanese, we at Japanese Explorer are here to help you on your way.
What is the Japanese Beginner Course?
Our courses are designed to have access to all levels from beginner through advanced without any discrimination based on age or previous experience in Japan. This makes us especially suitable if your goal was always becoming fluent rather than just being able to communicate about everyday topics like work/business etc.
Course Objectives:
Students will develop basic conversational skills by learning basic words, phrases, and useful sentences. Students will also learn Japanese words (at least 150 words), which they can use in everyday matters. Since it is a Japanese for beginners course, students are not required to have prior language classes in Nihongo.
Students will be able to grasp the ability to speak Japanese and have a better understanding of the Japanese way of life. Our Conversational Japanese for beginners online courses prepare students for practical conversations and knowledge about Japanese culture, customs, and traditions. The students will be fully immersed as they learn the language and are exposed to culture.
Learning a language is a skill, so it takes practice to master it. Students will be taught the Japanese language and listening and speaking skills in a two-part class. The first part of the class will involve learning common Japanese sentences (phrases) and expressions that are used in conversations. This will be divided into categories and taught in English and Japanese. Topics covered include:
- Self-introduction
- Talking about nationalities and occupations
- Knowing how to ask and buy things in shopping
- Talking about schedules and travelling
- Talking about tourist destinations
- Ordering food in a restaurant
- Talking about the daily routine

Student’s Review
Many of our students come in with high expectations, and we try our best to live up to them. With the help of our Japanese teachers, who are both native speakers and English speakers, students are taught in the best way possible.
We also provide students with Japanese for beginners learning materials for self-study after class to learn Japanese grammar (basic grammar), Japanese pronunciation, and basic vocabulary at home and really improve on them. These students will be understanding Japanese speakers in no time! This way, they will be able to start focusing on their speaking practice and answer questions in our next session.
Another thing we do is encourage our students to socialise by organising events like a learning community, learning exchange parties, or game nights which help students practise their language skills as well as making.
You can also watch the videos of some of our beginner Japanese course students speaking Japanese after they have completed their 12 sessions of Japanese lessons with us. They were able to speak Japanese all thanks to their dedication and the hard work of our teachers. If you want to know more about the learning progress of our past and current students, feel free to give us a call!
