Konbanwa! Thank you for joining the first trial lesson today, especially when you must be tired. I really appreciate it. You traveled from Montreal, Canada to Los Angeles for Anime Expo — that’s wonderful.
In today’s first lesson, we practiced basic Japanese greetings such as “Hajimemashite” and “Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.” These phrases are like a catchphrase in Japanese culture, and they are very important. We use them both at the beginning and at the end of interactions.
There will be more trial lessons coming up, so I hope you will stay with me until the end. Thank you again. Have a great week!
Today, we reviewed how to tell time in Japanese. There are many special readings and expressions to remember, but there is no need to memorize everything at once. You can take your time and learn them little by little. You were already able to say most of the times very well and accurately.
Today, we reviewed how to tell time and learned the days of the week. You did a great job using から (kara) and まで (made) to talk about your work schedule. You were able to say sentences such as: わたしは 8じはんから 5じまで はたらきます。 Watashi wa hachiji-han kara goji made hatarakimasu. I work from 8:30 to 5:00.
and
わたしは げつようびから きんようびまで はたらきます。 Watashi wa getsuyōbi kara kin’yōbi made hatarakimasu. I work from Monday to Friday.
You said both sentences very well.
After that, we practiced some Japanese verbs. You were able to make many different Japanese sentences using the verbs we studied. From now on, let’s continue practicing how to create your own sentences using verbs.
まいあさ なんじに おきますか。 Maiasa nanji ni okimasu ka? What time do you wake up every morning?
しちじに おきます。 Shichiji ni okimasu. I wake up at 7:00 every morning.

こんばん なんじに ねますか。 Konban nanji ni nemasu ka? What time will you go to bed tonight?
じゅうじに ねます。 Jūji ni nemasu. I will go to bed at 10:00 tonight.
You said that you like Costco better than Walmart. I like both stores too, but I think I prefer Walmart. I also really like Target.
Thank you again for coming to class today. See you in our next lesson!
