Japanese course A1

Our Japanese course A1 for beginners provides a solid foundation upon which to build a working knowledge of Japanese. Wordculture`s experienced teachers are native speakers and will provide you with a supportive and rich learning environment, as well as insights into their own culture. Our small class size (3-6 students) and up to date teaching methodologies will give you every opportunity to ask questions, as well as the chance to speak and practice the language as much as possible.

It is possible to complete an entire level in one course. Depending on the intensity of the course, this can take between 2.5 and 6 months.

After completing one of our courses you can go on to sit the exam for the JPLT. If you feel you would like more practice, we also offer courses for exam preparation.

When you have finished a course, you will have acquired the essential grammar and vocabulary you need to deal with simple everyday interactions.

These courses are designed for adult students who are complete beginners (A1). We can offer you the flexibility of studying at our centrally located school, in the comfort of your own home, or at your workplace.
