JLPT Preparation Course
The JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) Preparation Course is designed for students who are preparing for the JLPT N1 or N2 exam. This course is especially developed for students from countries where kanji, Chinese characters, is not used. In this course,
- Emphasis is put on reading comprehension, as it is a major component of the JLPT exam.
- Students are given tests at the beginning and the end of the course to measure the progress made throughout the course.
- Each student will have an individual counseling with the teacher and receives advice on how to further improve and successfully pass the JLPT exam.
The JLPT exam has been revised in 2010. The New JLPT's intent is to measure communicative competence in accomplishment of tasks in real situations. KAI has analyzed all of these new changes and updated the curriculum to reflect the revision. The levels N1 and N2 corresponds to the former Level 1 (1 kyuu) and Level 2 (2 kyuu) respectively.
