Teaching methods
Listening to the audio materials with teacher’s further explanation. The focus is put on the ability to identify not only the key information, but also the sociopragmatic functions of specific expressions (e.g. aizuchi etc.) within the spoken discourse. Speed of the speech and the rate of use of colloquial and phatic expressions become gradually higher toward natural spoken Japanese.
Assessment methods
Listening test. Active participation in the classes is also part of the evaluation.
