First of all, the five-tone diagram is the most basic thing in Japanese, just like Chinese Pinyin. I think there is nothing to say, so I have to recite it.
Experience in learning Japanese:
If you have a poor foundation, I suggest you sign up for a beginner's class. As for the training institutions, they are all similar, and they are all taught according to textbooks. At present, international training institutions generally adopt the new standard date and Japanese for all as teaching materials. I have read both books. It should be said that the content is relatively new, focusing on spoken English. But you can't take this textbook, because their grammar is not systematic and meticulous. After laying a good foundation, you can teach the textbooks yourself in the future, so you don't have to go to training classes.
I passed the Level 2 exam by myself, using Japanese newly compiled by foreign teachers, and taught myself three volumes of Level 2. This textbook is a bit old, but the grammar is more detailed, so I like it better. However, this textbook is suitable for people with strong self-learning ability, or if someone around you teaches you, it is still ok.
Precautions for grading:
In the future, you should test your Japanese level, instead of learning to read textbooks, you should also buy a book that focuses on grammar. I use the Second Grammar Problem-solving Tendency Countermeasures by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press, which is an old book, affordable and not outdated, and it is also at the level of 1.
Generally speaking, vocabulary books are below level 2, just look at the textbooks. Grade 2 or above, I use the Japanese Proficiency Test N 1 Vocabulary Essentials published by East China University of Science and Technology Press, and there are also two grades.
There are special exam exercise books for reading comprehension, listening and so on, so I won't say much.
Purchase teaching materials:
It is most convenient to buy books online, and Amazon, the largest online bookstore in the world, is recommended.
Reference book:
As for the dictionary, it is a must. It is recommended to buy an electronic dictionary, which is convenient to carry around and has fast query speed. Japanese majors generally buy Casio. ?
Online learning:
Look up information or learn Japanese online, and go to Hujiang Japanese website. Many people use this website to learn Japanese.
Final suggestion:
There is no skill in learning a language. Don't always think about stealing opportunities. It is more important to really master a language than to get a certificate.
Well, that's what I'm talking about. I hope it helps you.
