Why take this course?
This is the last of four levels of the MISJ NOVICE PROGRAM, the most suitable course for those who have finished MISJ NOVICE PROGRAM LEVEL 3.
The main purpose of this course is to let students learn the new concept “APS” based on 「DICTIONARY FORM」, 「てFORM」and 「ないFORM」. Therefore, all the previous courses are the preparation for this course.
Even if you are new to MISJ, if you are familiar with those forms, this is the right course.
You also learn how to choose and use three types of spoken expressions: FORMAL, POLITE, and COLLOQUIAL. It is essential knowledge you have to master if you want to work for Japanese companies or work with Japanese people in the future.
You can download the review materials such as review sheets, lists of patterns & extra vocabulary, one reading material, and the audio material corresponding to the reading material at the end of each lesson.
Suppose you are not confident in particle usage, making Japanese sentences, and handling them in conversations. In that case, I recommend starting your brush-up study with the MISJ WELCOME PROGRAM SECTION 2.
Suppose you are not confident in making and using 「てFORM」 based expressions, I recommend starting your brush-up study with the MISJ NOVICE PROGRAM LEVEL 2.
