Course Description
Do you want to learn Japanese but don't know where to get started? If so, you're in the right place. This Japanese for Beginners course will teach you the basics of the Japanese language from the ground up.
In this course, you will learn basic skills in Japanese such as:
- How to introduce yourself
- How to talk about your hobbies, occupation, hometown, and favorite food
- How to identify languages and everyday objects
- How to make a simple request
- How to say a phone number in Japanese

Learning a language requires PRACTICE, just like when learning how to play a sport or instrument. This course offers ample opporutunities to practice speaking and applying the words and phrases you learn. The interactive video lessons are simple and easy to follow, even if you're a complete beginner!
The Japanese writing system has 3 different alphabets - hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Most people start by learning hiragana, then katakana, then kanji. You can take this course without having learned any of the Japanese writing systems.
