HIRAGANA A1
TUTOR SUPPORT COURSE
(MANILA) FOR BEGINNERS
HIRAGANA ひらがな
COURSE CAN-DO
This is a teacher support course to learn how to read and write hiragana.
Besides learning how to type characters on a computer keyboard, materials on
how to write are also available for those who want to learn handwriting.
In this course, students first learn to read single hiragana characters, then
words and phrases, and learn to type hiragana characters on a computer
keyboard using the interactive teaching materials.
Classes at the Japan Foundation Manila (JFM) once every two weeks on
Saturday mornings will provide students a setting to verify what they have
learned. Reading practice in class will focus on hiragana words and sentences
from Lessons 1 to 10 of the MARUGOTO Japanese Language & Culture Starter
A1 coursebook.
Two types of teacher support will be offered in this course:
1. Three (3) Classroom Lessons
2. A Reading Test during the third classroom lesson
This course has a Group noticeboard. You can study by communicating with
your classmates and teacher through the noticeboard.
