Intermediate Japanese – Improve Your Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Communication Skills
At the intermediate level, the goal is no longer simply to understand individual sentences. You will learn to understand the main ideas, read longer passages, follow Japanese spoken at a natural speed, and express yourself clearly and logically. The courses in this section help you build a solid foundation for progressing from JLPT N3 to N2 and using Japanese effectively in your studies and at work.
