But what better way to immerse yourself more fully in the delightful depths of all-things Japan than by joining our Japanese lessons and learning the language. We promise it won’t be as difficult as you might think.
Who knows, perhaps by the time you get around to visiting you’ll be able to recite a Haiku poem or order that sake with ease.
Japanese Hatchling
If you were going to attempt a non-European language it would Japanese, wouldn’t it? We know you. That’s why we’ve created these accessible introductory Japanese lessons that will cover everything from numbers and introductions to pronunciation and character sets.
Over the course of 10 weeks our experienced tutor will lead you on a laid-back journey of linguistic discovery, allowing you to not only survive but thrive should you ever visit the zen gardens, sushi bars or temples of Tokyo.
Japanese Chick
Japanese Chick are Japanese lessons that look to build upon the basic Japanese you already know, but also suited to those with some prior experience of Japanese learning, either through our Hatchling classes or through your own learning.
In our laid-back classes our wonderful tutor, Reiko, will take you on an immersive learning journey whilst sharing a laugh around a cup of tea or coffee.
Japanese Post-Chick
These are post-beginners Japanese lessons for those who attended our Japanese Chick class or those looking to build upon the Japanese they already know or improve what they have learnt in the past.
Our fun and immersive Japanese classes, which takes place over 10 weeks, will take your vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation to that next level!
Firstly, language learning is unique in its ability to stimulate the mind and keep the brain young and healthy.
Research shows that those who can speak a second language tend to develop dementia 4 to 5 years later than those of us who can only speak one. Being bilingual also makes you far more likely to recover from a stroke.
These astounding facts mean that speaking a second language has greater benefits than any treatments or pharmaceutical interventions currently developed for brain ageing.
Secondly, language learning is a fun way to bring people together to build confidence, experience something new, learn about a different culture, create new connections, and have a laugh. For all the health benefits of language learning, we still want participants to feel relaxed and have a good time.
That’s why we like to say language learning is good for the brain and good for the banter. When we get the learning environment right that’s when the benefits start to be seen: improved concentration, enhanced communication, heightened multi-tasking ability, and bolstered over-all well-being!
Finally, we have recently attained Approved Centre Status by SQA (Scottish Qualification’s Authority) meaning that we can now offer National Level 2 qualifications to our care home/day centre learners as part of their Lingo course.
This wonderful development serves to reinforce the Lingo ethos that it’s never too late to learn, and that learning should be a life-long endeavour that can live on beyond school!
