One-to-one General/Business

Japanese Course in Limerick

If you want to be taught Japanese for academic reasons, business needs or gain a working knowledge of the language for general purposes, our tailormade lessons are guaranteed to be the ideal solution.

General Japanese courses will provide you with enough grammar and vocabulary to allow you to converse with native speakers, and form a strong basis for further learning. A Business course will focus on business protocol in Japanese, and later on reading and writing will become more important.

The possibilities are not limited to these two categories, however. Those taking a Business course will generally also learn Japanese telephone and email skills, as well as learning the basics for surviving short visits to the country. Equally, a General course will cover the fundamentals, but further focus in any particular area can easily be arranged with your teacher.

We arrange Business courses for many clients; primarily those working in international trade, overseas governments and universities, and employees of multinational firms who require a second language. General courses are not simply for those who need to reach a certain level of Japanese for an exam - they are perfect for those wishing to pack up and move abroad, those marrying a Japanese national, as well as those travelling to the country for any other reason.

Info about Limerick

With around 100,000 residents in the city and its suburbs, Limerick is the third largest city in the Republic of Ireland, situated right in the middle of Cork and Galway. As with many of the more sizeable cities in Ireland, there has been an explosion of immigration into the country in the past decade, spurring on Limerick's tourism trade, as well as its reputation for its vibrant shopping and clubbing industries.

In recent years Limerick has become a haven for Polish and African immigrants, and their influences have become part and parcel of the city itself. The Polish community is the second largest in Ireland, second only to Dublin, making it a great place to pick up a Slavic tongue - or indeed any other language from the continent, with the almost continuous stream of European immigrants coming into the city, all the year round.

Info about Japanese

Japanese is a tough language for a westerner to pick up, but this is mainly due to the fact that it has several basic differences from most European languages. Once a learner of Japanese has got their head around these distinctions, the language is actually surprisingly logical in the way it works.

Spoken by around 130 million people around the world, Japanese employs 3 different 'alphabets' simultaneously. A single sentence could contain characters from all three writing systems, which can be very confusing for learners as one writing system, Kanji, is entirely non-syllabic - that is to say, you either know the character, its meaning, and how to read it; or you don't. With over 2,000 Kanji characters in daily use (most of which have several readings depending on how they are used), reading and writing Japanese fluently can be something you could study your whole life and never master.

However, even with such difficulties as this and the honorific system (using different words and grammar depending on who you are speaking to), Japanese is an intensely interesting language to learn, and the basics can be picked up with little problem. There are many aspects of the culture in Japan that can only really be gleaned with a working knowledge of the Japanese language.
