For a native English speaker, Japanese is hard, harder than learning Spanish, for example. Focus - Remove all distractions and concentrate on what you are learning.Be inquisitive, try things out, and make corrections as needed. Adults just have to be child-like in learning. "Adults can't learn foreign languages" is simply not true. Mistake-making is memory-making if you correct and review your mistakes. Humility - Embrace mistakes and learn from them.

Don't forget to review! I highly recommend using the Anki flashcard software (see below) for daily review.
Consistency - Study every day, even if for only a few minutes. Use your motivations (your personal reasons for learning Japanese) to guide you to your goal (visualizing your future self). Imagine yourself reading a Japanese newspaper on a shinkansen bullet train. #JAPANESE FOR BEGINNERS REVIEWS TV#
Imagine yourself being interviewed on Japanese TV or ordering a Big Mac at McDonald's. Now take a moment to visualize yourself speaking fluent Japanese in Japan to real native speakers.This will help you get through the dark plateaus when progress seems painfully slow. Make a list of these reasons and remember them often. It could be a desire to read a novel or a newspaper in Japanese.
It may be an anime you saw that made you think learning Japanese would be cool.
Remember your personal reasons for wanting to learn Japanese. Motivation - Look for new ways to want to learn Japanese and enjoy it. I will definitely be coming back to this book for review, and think it would be a good resource for those who are learning Japanese formally as well as in a self-study capacity.To learn any language, you need these things: That really helped me in terms of having both verbal and written practice/emphasis through my studying, though I wish the CD component could’ve had more interaction and content with respect to each lesson in the book. The CD that comes in the back is mostly for emphasizing pronunciation through the different kanji that are showcased through the book. Admittedly, though, this is still a text best supplemented with a comprehensive text in Beginning Japanese, because it doesn’t really go into explaining katakana and hiragana despite showcasing it prominently throughout the book. I found the space dedicated to practice the stroke order very helpful, alongside commonly used vocabulary words and lessons designed to have you practice visualizing and responding in writing to different tasks and scenarios. After that point, you dive straight into the practice (44 Lessons worth), everything from numbers to common vocabulary to phrases and real world exchanges and examples. The first part of the book introduces you to concepts of the history of the language, stroke order rules, and helpful tips in learning kanji. It’s a very strong resource with a plethora of practice and examples, and an educational supplement that doesn’t cost too much. This was one resource that was recommended to me to pick up for study and I found it at my uni’s bookstore. My passion for learning Japanese dates back to when I was in high school but it’s only been in more recent years that I’ve actually had the time to really dedicate to learning it.). Meaning I’ve been engrossing myself in both the written and verbal facets of the language for a number of weeks (well…more like months. That said, my reason for picking up this book explains part of my absence from social media in the book world: between reading, working on my WIPs, studying for a certification exam in my field of study AND being busy with life events and work, I’ve been self-studying Japanese. All right, I’m going to preface this review with a notation: if you don’t know katakana or hiragana characters before reading this book, it would be wise to get another resource that deals with it directly either before or for studying alongside this book, because it may be confusing for those who are very new to the Japanese language.
