Japanese: Get Ready for the Olympics: Learn about Japan and Japanese*NEW*

The Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, which had been postponed for one year, are finally approaching this summer. The enthusiasm and excitement of this global sports festival is accompanied by challenges posed by the ongoing pandemic. We will guide you safely with a virtual tour. Although the Olympic Torch Relay and the flame’s journey across the 47 prefectures of Japan couldn’t be carried out as originally planned, we will visit some of the places. Especially as for Tokyo, which will be the main venue of the Olympics/Paralympics, we would like to share useful information (for your next in-person trip!), such as history, geography, and tourist attractions etc. Also, let’s practice Japanese essential phrases as if you were on a trip to Japan! Instructor: Tomoko Takagi
