My Japanese Curriculum

よみなさん! (Hi everyone!) -

*phew*...it is really tough stuff learning a new language. It requires a whole new thought process entirely. It's fun though and I love the feeling that comes with progressing. Curious about my study plan? Well here it is! This is what I do まいにち (everyday)...

1) Read my 100+ handwritten flashcard vocab words (all in Kana) from Japanese to English, and then all over again from English to Japanese, several times a day.

2) Read through past chapters in Human Japanese, then continue on with the next chapter or two

3) Any new vocab I am introduced to I immediately write out a flashcard for and add to my ever-growing pile to go through over and over again.

4) Listen to two lessons of Pimsleur

5) Practice writing in Kana

6) Watch Anime =)

So there you have it - that is how I study on a daily basis. In addition, I continuously go through Japanese words in my head, speak them to my dog and bunnies, and to anyone who will listen. Gotta keep em fresh in my mind! =)

わたしはにほんごがだいすきです！
(I love Japanese!)

またね！
