Every Japanese course takes a different approach to teaching kanji (Chinese characters).
So, how do we deal with kanji in Japanese Uncovered (Intermediate)?
In a nutshell...
The aim of Japanese Uncovered is to help you master intermediate-level Japanese, so you understand natural Japanese and speak with confidence.
To do this, we focus on building your vocabulary and grammar... through the magic of the story!
(Our benchmark is the N3 level of the JLPT system.)
In Japanese Uncovered (Intermediate), we do not teach you kanji.
Instead, we focus on kanji in a separate extension course. (Coming soon)
The reason is simple...
Learning kanji is a big task! There's a LOT of kanji to learn at intermediate level. Trying to study everything at the same time is not a smart learning strategy.
It's too easy to get bogged down.
So, instead, we teach kanji separately, in our extension course. With this approach, you're not trying to figure out what a new word means AND remember it's kanji at the same time.
You simply take words you've already learned... and add the kanji on top!
So much easier!
Think of it as a two-step process:
• Step 1: Improve your overall Japanese level, with this course
• Step 2: When you're ready, focus on kanji in our extension course
This way, you'll learn faster, and enjoy the whole process more
"I'm struggling to express what a momentous impact this course has had on me. I have been blown away by how fast this course allowed me to level up my Japanese. Seeing this progression has brought me so much happiness. I can't thank you enough for all the work you've put into this course. I really believe this is the best value for money I've received on any purchase ever."
