    Join When You Can! This method gives our students Join When You Can!

This method gives our students what we believe is most useful – practice, practice, practice! 

This approach is also helpful for those who cannot attend every class, as there is more flexibility through online support, pre-made electronic flashcards, and youtube lessons.

Jump in!

Many students want to join a particular class that may be part-way through a semester — that is fine! Time is precious, and there is no need to wait until the class restarts.

Join when you can, study for that week’s lesson, and review past lessons on your own.

Again, our curriculum is set-up so you can learn all of the material on your own and use the school for practice, clarification, and reinforcement.

As one student put it:

“As a beginner, I was intimidated to jump in when my class was on the third chapter of our textbook — that was the equivalent of ¼ of the class already completed.

No one wants to start off feeling extra dumb; however, while I was at a disadvantage in terms of vocabulary at first, I made up that ground quickly using the school app and learning from the other students. 

Also, each chapter was based on a certain topic that was not necessarily dependent on previous chapters to understand. 

In the beginning, the course is very linear.
Not only did I catch up, I was able to then study ahead and finish the coursework even before the semester ended.

The challenge of feeling like an ‘underdog’ kept me engaged and excited!“

We encourage you to get started right away and embrace the challenges that come with action!

    Come and join our Language Exchange! Language Exc Come and join our Language Exchange!

Language Exchange is where the give-and-take of 
learning happens! 

Students break into smaller groups and may practice a specific dialogue for that week (perhaps talking about hobbies, restaurants, jobs, etc.) with vocabulary provided. 
We also often play a game or work together to plan a 
dream trip, all in our target language. 

This time is mutually beneficial to the Japanese 
students learning English, as we work together. 

In Language Exchange, don't wait for perfection to 
participate -- start with what you can, even if it turns 
into charades, and let your native speaking peers 
guide you to accuracy. 
Ask questions, share cultural insights, and provide 
feedback to each other while building your Japanese 
speaking confidence. 

This exchange is a fantastic way to bridge the gap 
between classroom learning and communicating 
in the real world!

An important tip: 
slow down, pick out what you know, and start from 
there!
One of our favorite phrases at Blue House Okinawa is, 
“mou ichido itte kudasai” (one more time, please!).

While you will want to have more in-depth 
conversations and will be tempted to switch to English frequently, stick with the basics of what you’re learning until they come naturally. 

Then you’ll build on that as you learn more complex 
grammar and phrases. Be patient and build a solid 
foundation!

    How We Learn Japanese at Blue House Okinawa One o How We Learn Japanese at Blue House Okinawa

One of the most common challenges reported to us is how much difficulty students have in interacting in 
their target language.

At Blue House Okinawa, our goal is to build students’ 
confidence by providing multi-faceted language 
learning. 
We provide practical listening and speaking practice 
with both peer learners and native speakers, 
pronunciation and cultural awareness as well as 
grammar, reading and writing. 

With these tools, students can put their learning to use in their daily interactions!

    How We Learn Japanese at Blue House Okinawa Why d How We Learn Japanese at Blue House Okinawa

Why don't Japanese people include me in their circles?

As we’ve welcomed new students in, we recognised 
that there was a cultural misunderstanding between 
Japanese learners and English learners that hampered effective communication. 

As many native English speakers come from cultures that greatly contrast that of Japan’s, Blue House Okinawa provides ample opportunity to learn about the values, history, and influences in Japanese society. 

We believe learning about specific behaviors, 
unspoken rules, and the history of the local culture is 
as important to effective, respectful interactions as 
learning the words and phrases themselves.

What’s Blue House Okinawa About? 

Blue House Okinawa is a small, unique community for learners of English and Japanese to support each other, share culture, and reach their language goals. 
We are not a traditional school based on grades or rote memorization.

At Blue House Okinawa, we:

1. Embrace mistakes and difficulty as a process for 
growth
2. Include each other 
3. Believe in teamwork 
4. Let go of perfection and work towards progress
5. View struggling, persistence, and overcoming as an excellent recipe for resiliency. 
6. Celebrate! 

Blue House Okinawa, is what you make of it; your 
return is based on your investment. 

Have fun! 
Cheer yourself on at each milestone! 

Whether it’s reading your first word in hiragana, having your first conversation with a Japanese-only speaker, or even the first time you can order your meal in Japanese, these are excellent markers to celebrate how far you have come in your journey!

    Okinawa Language School Learning Opportunities Th Okinawa Language School Learning Opportunities

There are several distinct aspects to learning to 
communicate that require specific training. 
For example, mastering grammar is a separate skill 
from developing listening skills. 

Our goal is to get your tongue, ears, and mind working simultaneously and cohesively. At Blue House Okinawa, we provide useful opportunities to develop each, including the following:

Listening:
A challenging experience is when you learn to speak 
full sentences in Japanese but your ears haven’t had 
the practice to keep up with the response. 
You can quickly find yourself in over your head if you 
practice output but not attune your ears to 
understanding what comes back at you.

Active Classroom & Language Exchange - Essentially, what’s listed in the “Speaking” section above generally overlaps to strengthen your listening skills. 
During language exchanges, make sure to give your 
conversation guide to a native Japanese speaker and request that they interview you instead of limiting yourself to being the one to ask questions.

Listening Tests - Your teacher may provide intermittent listening tests where you interpret the question and either respond in writing or orally.
