This summer, the Japan Foundation, Toronto is thrilled to once again offer an introductory Japanese class: Marugoto Summer Sampler! This course places its focus on speaking, and over two weeks in July students will gain the knowledge and skills to start talking about themselves and their world in Japanese.
In this one-day workshop on July 7, 2017 in Burnaby, BC, we will have two sessions: one looking at updates for the new curriculum in BC, and one looking at autonomous learning.
Our 2-part class on June 22nd & 29th is designed to help learners know what to say in a variety of situations where keigo (formal Japanese) would be required.
