#HUMAN JAPANESE SERIES#
The length of the lessons are can be customized and if a series isn’t challenging enough you’re free to jump around and change what you’re currently studying. Each series will walk you through 10 steps, all building on what was previously introduced. iKnow has a course to teach you and from there you can start the core lesson series. If you want to start studying Japanese but don’t know the hiragana or katakana characters yet, it’s not an issue. Regardless of how you learn best, iKnow exposes you to audio, text and images simultaneously as you study. In this post - the first in a three-part series about learning Japanese on the go - I’ve included six applications that each have their own creative take on studying Japanese so you can focus less on the search and more on your path to fluency. Much of this progress is owed to the apps that allowed me to study grammar and reading, while also expanding my vocabulary with real world examples. There’s always room to grow in both vocabulary and confidence when learning a new language, and because of this I started testing various Japanese language apps to see what best suited my learning style.įive years - and many apps - later, I moved to Japan and realized I could read much more than my last visit three years prior. How can we tell which applications are better than others when they all seem so similar? When I studied Japanese in university I didn’t need to look outside of the classroom for guidance, but after graduating with a degree in Japanese in an English speaking country, I found myself struggling to retain everything I worked so hard to learn. Looking for the right application to learn Japanese can be a daunting experience.
