Hello! This is a fun and simple class for those who really love Japanese and want to learn the basics of Hiragana. Japanese has three different writing systems: Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji (Chinese characters). This class is just the basic alphabet: Hiragana. We will learn how to write the characters properly, and read them. We can also practice forming words with the Hiragana characters. I lived in Japan for 3 years and can speak Japanese at an intermediate level. Let's learn Japanese together!
Hello~ I have been learning Japanese for 4 years now and lived in Japan (Fukushima and Tokyo) for three years. I can help you learn Katakana in this short lesson. Not only will you learn how to write Katakana, I will also help you create words and learn how to speak Japanese characters! Let's learn together :D
