Japanese lessons in Bayonne on the Basque coast

The Japanese language and culture fascinate and captivate. Embark on an unforgettable language journey.

Would you dream of being able to understand what Hokusai wrote on the foam of his wave? To decipher these chiseled characters that adorn the pediment of the temple of the Japanese language and its culture? If you are into writing systems, Japanese speakers use three.

To discover or rediscover them, the Maison des Langues invites you to embark on a trip to Mount Fuji. The canoes welcome a solitary traveler, a pair or groups, each level has its pier and several routes are possible.

Whether it is a discovery or a deepening, an initiation or a passion, the Maison des Langues is committed to meeting your expectations.

Depending on the working time you have, we offer independent work, to extend or prepare for the course. Our educational resources are both digitally and physically available for consultation in our resource center. Similarly, training can take place face-to-face, remotely or both (hybrid).

Conversation in Japanese

Our courses, leisure or individual, are preferentially focused on oral practice, although punctuated with written and grammatical points, according to expectations. But toput into practice the points covered andimmerse yourself for an hour in the Japanese language and culture, conversation workshops are essential. Paced and moderated by the teacher, these workshops allow the learner to express themselves freely and at length in a caring environment.

It is however recommended, for the good performance of the workshop, to have acquired level B1 to start the conversation workshops. General objectives:

  • Develop and improve oral fluency
  • Develop oral comprehension
  • Raising awareness of foreign cultures and contemporary societal issues

Group formula: €30/month, €300 per year (September to June)

I started learning languages ​​with the Maison des Langues in September, I am very happy with the results, and the team is very nice. The lessons are very lively, in small groups, it's very friendly. They alternate grammar, discussion, culture... It's dynamic and great to see that we are all progressing.

Registered since October 2019, I am very satisfied with the quality of the courses, the teachers and the atmosphere at Jakinola/la Maison des Langues. I also appreciate the associated services such as happy hours and complementary conversation classes and, of course, the various activities, and aperitifs!, which are an opportunity to discover languages ​​other than those we are learning, and chat with participants from other groups in a friendly atmosphere.

Our pedagogic approach

Drawing on the diverse experiences of the members of our teaching team, at La Maison des Langues, we combine several approaches to get the best out of them and provide a tailor-made solution for each person. Thus, we are talking about a personalized hybrid learning environment.

  • Individual diagnosis (strengths, weaknesses, objectives etc depending on the time available…)
  • Face-to-face, distance or hybrid courses: focused on oral production with a qualified and experienced trainer (reverse class system, reception activities are encouraged outside of attendance time).
  • Distance LearningDevice, in support of face-to-face courses
  • Resource Center: access to paper and digital media during the association's opening hours, with the presence of a qualified person who can guide the trainee in his research/work independently.
  • Individual coaching in addition to semi-group lessons: throughout the training, the trainee benefits from professional advice to enable him to make the most of his free time.

We answer your questions

Our tailor-made courses are suitable for all ages (children, teenagers, students, adults and retirees) and all levels.
