Abstract
Many students of Japanese language, who are not Kanji literate, do not get enough instruction in the writing of Kanji, resulting in the formation of bad habits in the shape and form of their written characters. At Ehime University a manual prepared by language instructors for Japanese volunteers with no experience in language teaching to help these students improve their character writing is being tested. In this study, we will introduce the use of this manual and discuss the issues related to such specific instruction.
