Throughout the course there was presentations that we did as a group and individually to improve our Japanese communication skills. If you click here you can see my presentation powerpoint. Also, if you click here you can see my final presentation as well. In this course one of the most significant and important thing that I have learned is keigo which is formal Japanese language to use to speaking to an higher authority. In the future when I am working maybe in Japan being able to us Keigo is really important and crucial. During that time reading Kanji and keigo was a challenge for me and it was really difficult to comprehend, so I learned that being able to read Kanji and Keigo needs practice. Such as for reading Kanji, reading books and reading newspapers and magazines will help improve my reading skills. For Keigo, practicing using with professors is really important. This course gave me an understanding of speaking Japanese from speaking, listening, reading, and writing in a new level for me then before. Before I learned reading Kanji and reading, and listening at a Japanese school that attended every Saturday and this gave me the college level style of play and gave me full knowledge of how Japanese is actually is.
