Course Overview
Go beyond the MISJ WELCOME PROGRAM in the most efficient, effective, and enjoyable way
This is the course for students who have finished learning the MISJ WELCOME PROGRAM and want to learn more about the Japanese language and Japanese culture. It consists of 11 lessons. From Lesson 1 to Lesson 4, students learn more about Japanese NOUN sentences. The topics students learn in this section are the same as those in the MISJ WELCOME PROGRAM, such as greetings and shopping, but they are enhanced. The new topic is calendar vocabulary, such as the day of the week and dates. From Lesson 5 to Lesson 10-2, in addition to the continuous training of the PARTICLE changes, students will learn more about grammar concerning VERB sentences, such as how to use new VERBs, how to use ADVERBs which show frequency of choice and action. They can also learn how and why the word order changes during conversations.
The new topics of conversation are; inviting someone to do something together, making plans, offering a favor, talking about opening/closing/beginning/ending time, talking about how long it takes, talking about schedule, and talking about existence. Students can also learn various kinds of 「ますFORM」-based expressions and VERBs such as “do ～ too much” or “re-do ～.”
Good luck with your study, and I hope you enjoy the atmosphere of taking a semi-private lesson in the classroom.

Iwasaki-sensei is an excellent teacher for anyone starting to learn Japanese from scratch. She takes a clear, step-by-step approach to teaching, making sure that every student fully understands each concept before moving on to the next lesson. Her patience and dedication create a supportive learning environment, which is especially important for beginners. I believe she is one of the best teachers for those just beginning their journey in learning Japanese.

I have been doing the MISJ program through Udemy since 2021, and since then, I have gone back to university to pursue Japanese as my major. This program has served as a refresher to what I have already learned, as well as being supplementary material to my studies. I look forward to starting 'MISJ NOVICE PROGRAM LEVEL 2' during the semester break to help me with my studies as I prepare to commence my second year in 2024. ありがとう。いわさき先生。
