Japanese Study in Both China and Japan

Abstract

With the deepening of the process of globalization, the study of a second foreign language is also increasing in various countries. China and Japan are geographically close to each other and have had many cultural exchanges historically. Therefore, the number of Chinese people learning Japanese is increasing rapidly, and research on Japanese learning is also constantly carried out. This paper focuses on the differences between Japanese language learning in both China and Japan. Based on the existing literature research, this paper puts forward some new and constructive suggestions on the Japanese learning methods of Chinese people through the comparison of Japanese learning between China and Japan. Through the research, China and Japan have obtained completely different status quos and reasons from the four perspectives of learning motivation, classroom activities, teaching feedback and learning outcomes. China pays more attention to test-oriented strategic teaching than Japan. Instead, Japan prefers to help foreigners master the language to adapt to daily life. The Japanese teachers are affectionate and encourage communication, while the Chinese students respect their teachers and do not communicate much. The learning outcomes of the two countries are also different because of the motivation and cultural background but achieve their own goals. Japanese teaching can increase teaching interaction through the perspective of sharing culture, and at the same time, according to the different learning purposes of students, the teaching scope can be expanded accordingly to achieve the learning results expected by students.
