Dear JLPTPRO, My name is Aslı Sena Karanfil, and I am a post-doctoral researcher at Osaka University. I aim to achieve the N2 level by the summer of 2025. However, my current Japanese proficiency is at a beginner level. I can read Hiragana and Katakana and understand basic expressions, as I have been living in Japan since December 2021 as a PhD student. Could you kindly recommend a suitable program or pathway for my situation? Best regards, Aslı Sena Karanfil
