Fundamental & Futsu-ka

Ranging from levels 1~12, fundamental and Futsu-ka courses aim to enable students to read, write and speak Japanese fluently. There are two streams of courses available depending on the language spoken at home:
- Fundamental: Japanese for students who are learning it as a second language
- Futsu-ka: Japanese for students whose native or first language is Japanese
