Learning Japanese: Maki's blog

This is Maki's blog. She writes little stories in English. For me, the most interesting part are the pages where she explains Kanji. She follows a children’s Kanji-teaching book, and explains the contents in English.
One by one she describes the background and the current use of the Kanji.



Almost daily she ads a new text in her blog at Language-Exchange.com. This is a platform where students can upload a text and other participants can correct or give feedback.

Learning Japanese: AJATT

The topic of the All Japanese All The Time website is learning Japanese through immersion. This technique of exposing yourself to the language of your choice as much as possible is seen as one of the best ways to learn a language. It’s how kids do it as well, without going to school: just listening to the language, being exposed to it 24/7. Of course, not all of us can be so extreme, but in essence it’s good advice.



The number of articles is large, and Khatzumoto has his own writing style.
But I’m sure you will fine some useful tips.
