CCC Community Education & Professional Development

This intermediate-level course is designed for students who already have foundational knowledge of Japanese language and culture. Before enrolling, students should be able to read and write hiragana and katakana, use basic sentence structures, and understand common everyday expressions. The course expands conversational ability, listening comprehension, and practical reading and writing skills while deepening understanding of both contemporary and traditional Japanese culture. Instruction emphasizes real world communication through guided conversation, short readings, and cultural discussion. Enrollment is limited to eight students to support interactive learning.
