Japanese Conversation for English Speakers 4

Japanese Conversation for English Speakers 4

This course (section 4) is aimed at English speakers who would like to learn intermediate level Japanese conversation. If students have completed "Japanese conversation for English speakers (section 3)" or they have any prior relevant knowledge of Japanese, it would be perfect to improve their knowledge.

Students will be able to continuously learn a variety of expressions (e.g. 4 conditional forms, plain form of verbs and adjectives, relative clauses, etc.) They can also learn several expressions with the different formality (from casual to formal level) to use them properly. Additionally I put advanced topics in some lessons so that learners can challenge advanced-learner's level grammar as well.

Each lesson is related to the former lesson, which enables learners to review and learn more. I frequently compare Japanese grammar to English grammar to avoid confusion. At the end of the course, students will be able to hold intermediate level conversations in Japanese.
