Situational Japanese

Most Japanese learning materials chase after dramatic stories or discussing complex issues. Very few teach you how to actually use Japanese language in everyday life.
This course focuses on the situations you’ll inevitably face in Japan — from booking a table to visiting a doctor — and teach you the skills and knowledge to handle them with confidence.

20 themes covering a wide range of everyday situations. Check out the full curriculum below!

All dialogues have audio recorded by natives speakers. (Actually it’s almost 8 hours because each dialogue has 2 audio versions!)

Adjust the text the way you like it: toggle furigana, kanji, pitch accent, translation, annotations.

Teacher in the class understands you, but people on the street don’t? We have the perfect material to practice your pronunciation!

Each lesson has articles covering the cultural and practical aspects. How do Japanese eat sushi? What do codes of apartments for rent mean? You’ll find the answers here.

All audios have two versions: natural (close to how people speak in real life) and enunciated (standard pronunciation and accent). Perfect for practicing listening and speaking!
