Children’s beginning Japanese language class (ages 6-10, registration required)

About this event

*NOTE: Please come early to get food/beverages for children in the class, as to avoid distractions during class. Thank you!*

Join Junko Arnold for a wonderful 6-week series designed to introduce young people to the Japanese Language. Learning another language helps children make new neural connections, increases empathy, and enhances cultural understanding. This low cost series is designed to reduce barriers to learning Japanese and also supports the teahouse nonprofit.

For young people age 6-10 years of age (parent welcome to attend with child). If you are unsure about whether your child might be able to attend outside of that age range, please email instructor.

Please contact Junko if you have any questions about this class. Reserve your space soon as there is limited seating.

Cost: 40.00 for entire 6 week series starting November 3rd (No class the week of Thanksgiving 11/22/26).
