While studying in Australia, consider not only learning English, but Japanese as well. Students such as yourselves have already indicated a competence for learning foreign languages, so Japanese should not be any more difficult. Students from countries such as China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Korea, where the Chinese script is already used, will especially find the study of Japanese straight forward. The course has been developing in step with the numbers of students who are either beginning their study of Japanese for the first time, or who are continuing their study of Japanese.
Students have four contact hours per week.
Japanese is offered in the internal mode. To be able to speak a foreign language opens many career doors as well as provides a sense of personal achievement. It is a skill which demands a lot of hard work and dedication, but the rewards for success are enormous. Japan remains the largest trading partner with the countries of East and South East Asia, therefore an ability to use Japanese is undeniably an advantage. In these units, which are designed for complete beginners, there is an emphasis on the development of oral and aural language skills.
