Learn Japanese

Did you know, according to a famous study - learning the top 1,000 most frequently used words will enable you to understand up to 87.8% of all oral speech? Quite incredible right? The problem is most students focus on learning the wrong vocabulary. The idea of reading dictionaries to increase vocabulary is the old way of learning. It’s boring, not arranged into topics, plus there’s pages and pages of words you’ll hardly ever use.

With Paul Noble’s simple, relaxed approach, you will learn in a way that suits you—without having to memorise long lists of words you won’t use, scribbling notes as you listen or feeling frustrated. Instead, Paul will introduce you to the basics of Japanese and guide you through over 15 hours of everyday scenarios—from simple situations like asking for directions and eating out to talking about yourself and how to master the different tenses—that are practical, fun and applicable. Just listen, interact and learn wherever you are.

Most Japanese students try to learn Japanese through memorization, especially when it comes to learning new vocabulary or the all-important conversational connectors (and, or, however, therefore, for example, etc.).
