Our annual two-week Japanese Summer Course offers intensive language training with a strong focus on communication skills. The course is available at two levels: introductory, for students without Japanese language learning experience, and intermediate, for students with a basic foundation. Small class sizes create an engaging learning environment that encourages interaction between teachers and students and peer collaboration. Both levels emphasise the practical language skills needed for meaningful engagement with Japanese speakers.
Beyond language learning, the course includes rich cultural immersion workshops exploring both traditional and contemporary aspects of Japanese culture. Past workshops have featured anime illustration, Japanese confectionery crafting, tea ceremonies, flower arrangement, J-pop music, Bon Odori folk dance, otagei fan performances, and Japanese film screenings. Students also participate in study abroad discussion forums, special lectures on Japanese history and folklore, and online cultural exchanges with Japanese students.
