Pera Pera Penuin Japanese Language Course


Download Now
An excellent short course in Japanese.

This PDF file is a collection of conversation classes for learners of the Japanese language. It is written by Hitomi Hirayama, a Japanese teacher with more than 15 years of experience, and the founder of Shibuya Ward-based Japanese Lunch, a Japanese language school serving businesspeople in Tokyo. Her column is carried once every eight weeks in Tuesday’s Language Connection of The Daily Yomiuri, and may be downloaded at no cost from http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/columns/0002/ after each installment appears in the newspaper. The author welcomes comments on her column at http://www.japaneselunch.com or gambatte@japaneselunch.com.

This course is particularly good in that it deals clearly with points in Japanese that are often confusing to learners.
