Just listen to one chapter per day, complete the exercises, and watch as conversational connectors fall into place and improve your fluency without a hitch!

Most Japanese students try to learn Japanese through memorization, especially when it comes to learning new vocabulary or the all-important conversational connectors (and, or, however, therefore, for example, etc). This doesn't work, and is extremely stressful for you as a learner. Why? Because there is so much vocabulary to learn and it's impossible to hold it all in your head while you're speaking. It's also not a natural approach.... Native speakers don't learn new words with memory tricks, after all!

In this story, you will read all about Lanko, a high school student spoiled by a life of ease. Once her parents die in a tragic car accident, she is forced to take control of their ryokan (a traditional Japanese inn) in order to make a living and carry on their life work. But the life of an adult isn't easy, and Lanko has to grow up and learn to change her ways if she wants to survive....
