The goal of the USJETAA Japanese Reading Group is to help advanced beginner and intermediate level students improve their reading skills. Each month, we explore a short reading and discuss its literary and cultural significance. Participants should attempt to do the reading on their own and come to the meeting with any questions. We will spend the meeting each month reading the assignment sentence by sentence to understand how the Japanese is working.

Registration is free, but we always appreciate donations to support these types of programs. Zoom link will be sent upon completing registration.

Post questions, discuss the reading, etc. in our
USJETAA Japanese Reading Group Facebook Group.

In April we'll read the short essay titled 「自分が忘れていても、桜はやはり咲くのだ」 ("The Sakura Still Blossom, Even If I Forget Them") by Kagoshima writer Nashiki Kaho. Click here for the reading.
