Japanese is an East Asian language spoken by about 125 million people, mainly in Japan itself. It is a member of the Japonic language family.
The early history of Japanese is something of a mystery. The language’s relation to other language groups such as Korean is debated.
Modern Japanese is written in a mixture of three main systems: kanji (characters of Chinese origin), hiragana, and katakana.

Really enjoying the class. Yuri is passionate and makes the course very interesting. Not only do we learn the language but Yuri shares the culture of Japan. Really enjoying every class.
Hi, Juri is great at presenting grammar in a memorable way and bringing to life some memorable ways of remembering Japanese symbols or cultural practices - all of which enhances the experience. I would like to see a little bit of simple 'testing' so that we might take that away…Hi, Juri is great at presenting grammar in a memorable way and bringing to life some memorable ways of remembering Japanese symbols or cultural practices - all of which enhances the experience. I would like to see a little bit of simple 'testing' so that we might take that away and practice ourselves as a useful reminder periodically. Also I'd like a little help with learning some Japanese symbols in the sidelines. Juri however is a very competent and engaging teach with whom I feel confident and I look forward to her sessions - she is always able to handle all questions admirably. She is a pleasure to work with! The venue struggles for fresh air and temperature regulation (often flies) but most importantly the quality of the fluorescent lights is very poor - I am able to pick up a slight flickering in the frequency (which I know is invisible to some) so they are very offputting and take away from the experience. A common room for tea would be good too!Read more
