Sarah Moon Japanese | Learning Japanese: Anime vs Textbooks @SarahMoonJapanese | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
I teach a lot of Japanese on this channel through entertainment (anime, games, songs, etc.) But is that the best way to learn? It's a way to learn, but it should not be your only way of learning.

Please don't learn 100% of your Japanese from me! I'm a highly-experienced J-E translator and teacher of dance and theater, but a beginning level teacher when it comes to Japanese. It's also best to learn from a variety of sources (preferably native Japanese) and to hear the concepts explained by multiple people (again, preferably native Japanese). Here are some other great resources:
