We were in the same class just for Japanese 11, so it's true I don't know exactly what was taught in Japanese 9 and 10. But I definitely remember in Japanese 11 having to study how to turn verbs from "-masu" into dictionary form. And there was that song that went with it!! D: Or wait, the song was for turning "-masu" form into "-te" form, which in a way is slightly better and in a way is even weirder ... ???
I admit I was pretty lucky with the ways things worked out for me. I studied on my own starting like halfway through ninth grade, then I got into Japanese 11E which was cancelled a week in (but it's only because of this that I started taking Spanish xD funny how things work out), then the next year I got into Japanese 11 and loved it despite the quirks of its teachings, then there was no Japanese 12 but I studied on my own and wrote the provincial anyway (which is its own hilarious story) ... and then yeah, entered into Japa150 at UVic. xD; BUT I LOVED THAT CLASS so I wasn't too bothered that I was still in first year.
MAN I was honestly sad when I discovered you weren't taking Japanese anymore. D: Well, to be honest I started enjoying the classes less the higher the level, but-- but-- still!! :P
