Japanese for Teens: Summer Challenge

July & August, 2024

Teens are invited to start their Japanese language learning journey this summer with these online courses designed just for them! Students will practice the fundamentals of Japanese language and learn about Japanese culture with a group of like-minded peers. Using a variety of fun and engaging activities and examples from popular Japanese media like anime and manga, they’ll develop practical listening, speaking, reading, writing and cultural skills to kick-start their Japanese language abilities!
