@japanese_kanta: Learning Japanese to work in Japan? You may not need a Japanese teacher at all. GOAL = THE EXAM ↓ → pass the JLPT → close the grammar gaps → hold a beginner conversation ✓ a Japanese teacher is exactly the right person GOAL = THE JOB ↓ → speak up in a meeting → get through an interview → explain a result to your boss ✗ the language is only half of it shigoto no nihongo (しごとの にほんご) = Japanese + the job. What to say, how direct to be, what sounds normal in that room. Nobody writes that half down for you. KODAWARI SENSEI — Sensei who worked the job first. Look at their old job, not just the certificate. $1 first lesson, link in bio. Save this before you pick a teacher. #japaneseatwork #workjapanese #jobinjapan #japaneselearning #jlpt
