Japanese, one of the world’s most unique and complex languages, is deeply rooted in the rich culture and history of Japan. Its global importance is undeniably vast as it is the gateway to understanding the intricate art, technology, and business dynamics of Japan. Learning Japanese doesn’t just add another line to your resume—it opens up a new way to perceive the world, challenging, and enriching your cognitive abilities.
I love that you provide the FSI courses!. I first was exposed to one in 1965 when I was learning Amharic.
The FSI course, combined with classes with native speakers, really got me up to speed and I had a reasonable ability after only two months!
These courses are really thorough! Best of all, the audio portion started right in by immersing me in a real-life conversation spoken by a native speaker at normal speed.
This year I wanted to brush up on my Amharic and I'm glad I chose FSI Language Courses!
