Essential Japanese for Travel Class 2 Part 1-5 (Age 13-18)

Have you ever been to Japan and gotten stuck? Do you want to go to Japan, but are too scared because you don't know the language? Well, have no fear, this series will definitely help you. This course will bring you essential Japanese that you need to comfortably travel as well as provide you with some history and culture behind the words.

I really wish I'd had this series before I went to live in Japan. I was thrown into Japanese life without any help, not knowing what to say or how to respond to situations. I probably made many mistakes. But with this Japanese course, you won't be making the same mistakes that I did.
