Course Description

Nihongo Class N4 (120 hours)

Overview

N4 is the upper-basic level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT). This class introduces more complex sentence structures, additional vocabularies and N4-level Kanji characters for learners who have already conquered the basics and now seek a deeper understanding of the Japanese language. In this 120-hour course, the emphasis is on cultivating linguistic confidence, enabling learners to recognize and comprehend a wider spectrum of words and engage meaningfully in diverse Japanese conversations.

Course Content

Building on the foundations laid in N5, the course consists of our N4 Vocabulary and N4 Grammar materials, an N4 Kanji Workbook tailored for comprehensive learning, and a series of Mock Exams that challenge participants to apply their knowledge in real-world contexts.
