Learn Japanese Now: 5-Week Crash Course — Real Life Language
Learn Japanese Now:
5-Week Crash Course
Learn Japanese now with this 5-week crash course.
The secret to moving from being a Novice level (A) language learner to someone who can create their own sentences is having enough words and phrases to do this.
Take this list of survival words and phrases. Commit to learning a few each week. Eventually, all of those words and phrases add up.
I like Vocabulary Columns. It is an intense way to master a set of words and phrases quickly. However you might approach this, sit down and concentrate on mastering these survival tasks in Japanese.

You can also create your own playlist, or get the book with linked audio:
