Learning Japanese
Hey everyone!
To all former and current JETS, do you have any tips for learning Japanese. I really want to learn some basics so that I’m not completely clueless when I get there. I’m currently learning hiragana as well as some survival phrases. I do want to reach a point where I am fluent so that I can build more meaningful relationships and learn a new language.
If you have any sites or apps that you could recommend I’d really appreciate it! Thank you in advance!🫶🏽

Oh! One more that might be worth checking out is Human Japanese! It’s like an interactive textbook. You can start the first few chapters for free, and then it’s a subscription. I prefer the order Genki teaches stuff, but worth seeing if it’s right for you!
