I absolutely loved learning Japanese!! However, I suspect this subject would be quite difficult for anyone starting with zero prior Japanese study. It moves very fast but I highly recommend it if you have done some prior work in Japanese; even just learning Hiragana and Katakana in the break before starting.
The one star goes to the three week teaching when we were on campus. It was pleasant that my tutors were so nice patient and friendly. After it went online, two two-hour seminars became two 30-min peer practice sessions and self-learning. I understand there was not many hard concepts in Japanese 1, but it is absolutely disappointing that how Little teaching I received. However, the exam was extremely easy.

Highly recommend to students looking to learn basic Japanese and a relatively low workload but easy high marks.
