Conversation Club for Adult Japanese Language Learners 会話クラス

Recommended for those who wish to talk with peers using the Japanese expressions they have learned so far.

  • The facilitators are native Japanese speakers. You can ask questions about Japan.
  • The facilitators are responsible for creating the atmosphere for everyone to speak in Japanese. They may bring up some topics to talk when the conversation does not go smoothly.   
  • The facilitators may limit the time that each participant can talk.  
  • The participants are responsible for respecting peers’ opinions. They are free to talk about anything except for the business talks that may benefit particular participants.
