Your sensei-in-a-box.
Human Japanese is based on the idea that the best way to learn and truly comprehend Japanese is to have it explained
to you by someone who speaks your language. Core concepts are broken down in a friendly, down-to-earth tone, with frequent comparisons to similar aspects of English.
