Business Japanese for Foreigners: Case Studies (Intermediate)

This course is designed for those seeking employment in Japan or Japanese companies to deepen their understanding of common Japanese business practices and develop smooth communication both inside and outside the company.

Each lesson focuses on a situation new employees are likely to encounter, such as making a request, reporting, or making a proposal. It is divided into two sections: reading comprehension and conversation.

In the reading comprehension section, students read a passage explaining business practices and then use case studies to summarize how they would respond in specific situations. In the conversation section, students learn expressions and conversational strategies and engage in role-playing to improve their practical communication skills.

*Supplementary materials include a "Vocabulary List (in alphabetical order)," "Expression List," and "Classroom Hints," which can be downloaded for free from our website. *Audio recordings of the "Reading Comprehension" and "Conversation" sections will be available on our website.
