[ahmahippo]

For myself, I don't know why but whenever I pronounce the word with small つ, I tend to pronounce it to be in the chinese 4th sound.... Haha.... Unsure if I have pronounce wrongly.....

oh... coz i see it funny... i see the hiragana dont have t alone... so i dont know it is つ

Maybe next week.

Hi,

I have been self-studying for JLPT4 for the past few months, and have completed Minna no nihongo 1-1 and 1-2. I'm thinking of taking the next step by enrolling in japanese classes at Ikoma. After reading through this thread and browsing Ikoma's website, I suppose I should enrol myself for Intermediate 1.

My question is, for current and ex-Ikoma students, if there are no new classes for Int1, can I fit into the on-going classes? And how does that work out?

Will be going down to Ikoma at the end of this week to check it out also. I would appreciate hearing some advice about Ikoma's Intermediate classes.

either u can wait, or take a placement test and the staff will see whether u are ok 2 join the ongoing class bah...

JCS to me is a bit strict as change lesson muz write in. Maybe my language learning ability weak. My sensei to me seem to teach fast and handwriting i cannot figure out.

Anyone wanna join me???

Aoba Language Centre is at where?

 

[kjaskk]

Anyone know any good Japanese Language teacher from maybe JCS or Ikoma. I wanted to engage a Japanese Language teacher for private tuition. I may need to pay a more for private 1-to-1 tuition but the lessons will be tailored to my learning pace and addressed all my learning difficulties. Maybe I can progress faster then.

Any views to share? Thank you
