Great for new vocab, questionable for oral practice
This podcast is a great resourece for learning new and practical vocabulary. Furthermore, there is ample written material on their website including Kanji and Kana that prompted me to quickly purchase a membership to get all of their podcasts. As I use the program more, however, I do have a complaint: not enough room for practice. It seems that (at least in the beginning levels) I must listen to a 10 minute lesson to hear 9 minutes of English and 1 minute of new vocabulary in Japanese. I would really like a track that prompts the listener to interact and respond to phrases in mock conversations (the Pimsleur program does this, which I really like). This oral practice would really help me solidify the new Japanese that I learn. For me, I'm mostly using this in the car and on my iPod so without the interactive element in the audio lessons, I'm unsure if I will continue with the program. All other elements and resources of this podcast and their website, however, are exceptional.Read full review »

Aber die sprachlichen Spielereien zwischen Peter und Natsuko waren immer so amüsant, dass man vergessen hatte, eine Fremdsprache zu...Read full review »
