Nihongo Renshuu

Come join us at our new location for the "semester", the Old Metairie Branch Library! At this meeting we will focus on learning Japanese hiragana. Knowing the basic alphabet of the Japanese language will help broaden your Japanese learning. We'll reinforce this learning with a game of hiragana poker.

Nihongo Renshuu, or Japanese practice, is a casual learning experience for people wanting to learn Japanese. It’s easy to grab material to study but not so easy when it comes to practicing what you’ve studied. This program is for all Japanese learning levels, from beginner to expert. The reason for the large gap is how this program is formatted. Nihongo Renshuu will help your Japanese by putting it into use in ways such as talking with others and playing games. The most important part about learning a language is having enough interaction with it. This is not a formal Japanese class, but will have class-like aspects to the meetings such as a teaching segment. This program is meant to help with your Japanese studies, not be the main source of study.
