Special Thanks

The Wasabi Japanese radio podcasts were created through a special association with Shimabara FM (a Japanese radio station). Thanks to them, we could develop one of the most practical materials for Japanese lessons in terms of conversation. It is likely that the example sentences in Japanese textbooks are slightly different from sentences which native speakers use in everyday life. By utilizing Shimabara FM’s programs, we can provide learning materials based on actual Japanese expressions. Thank you very much.
