At Unity Japanese Language Center Pvt. Ltd., we facilitate the Japanese Language NAT-TEST – a comprehensive assessment designed to gauge the proficiency of non-native Japanese speakers. Tailored across five difficulty tiers, this evaluation encompasses three critical aspects: Grammar/Vocabulary, Listening, and Reading Comprehension. The examination structure and question patterns mirror those featured in the Japanese Language Ability Test (JLPT).
Our Japanese Language NAT-TEST spans five progressive levels, each with distinct complexities. Beginning with the accessible Level 5, the tiers ascend to the most challenging, Level 1. The intricacy of each level aligns with its corresponding Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) grade, ranging from N5 to N1.
Levels 1 and 2 encompass a Language Knowledge segment, encompassing reading, grammar, and vocabulary. This is accompanied by a Reading Comprehension section and a comprehensive Listening segment. For Levels 3, 4, and 5, the evaluation comprises a Language Knowledge portion incorporating kanji and vocabulary, followed by a second Language Knowledge section that delves into grammar and reading comprehension. The examination concludes with a comprehensive Listening segment. Test-takers can anticipate dedicating several hours to complete this rigorous assessment on the designated examination day.
