This is complete Japanese textbook and learning package for intermediate level students. In the intermediate level of this highly-acclaimed new series, learners will continue to study Japanese through an engaging story line which slowly unfolds over the arc of the text, keeping things interesting and adding the motivation needed to master new material. This story based approach is a great way to learn Japanese. The emphasis in Intermediate Japanese is on real-life situations drawn from contemporary Japanese culture and authentic written, visual and oral materials embedded in the lessons. Available in both hardcover and paperback, Intermediate Japanese includes an accompanying audio disc, and free web-based multimedia resources with additional exercises. A separate Workbook is available with corresponding one-of-a-kind practice activities. Key features of this program: The focus is very visual. The book's narrative is told with manga-style story pages, and the CD ROM uses colorful video. Authentic written, visual, and oral materials are embedded very naturally throughout the book. Independent learners and classroom students alike will find this an accessible and upbeat way to master contemporary Japanese. Kanji characters are emphasized here more than in other textbooks and are taught as an integral part of learning Japanese spoken vocabulary, rather than separately. By the end of this book, learners will have mastered 149 additional kanji, for a cumulative total of 300 kanji. The CD ROM includes Native Japanese language speakers. Pronunciation guides for all new words. Accompanying dialogues. The Beginning Japanese Website includes: Online games and activities. Additional information and updates. Downloadable Hiragana Practice Book, Katakana Practice Book, kana practice sheets. Downloadable kanji and kana flash cards. Beginning Japanese is the second volume in a 3-level series. Deepen your learning with the Intermediate Japanese Workbook, a volume of drills and exercises that reinforce the lessons in the textbook.

Biographie de l'auteur

Lisa Berkson has been teaching Japanese language at the high school level for eight years. Her introduction to Japan came as a Rotary Club exchange student in high school. She returned to Japan after earning her B.A. from Georgetown University, and spent two years in Kyoto, studying Japanese and teaching English. Subsequently, she entered the M.A. program in Asian Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. For the next several years she worked in related fields, including as a proofreader for the Japanese version of Time magazine, as a tour guide, and as a freelance technical translator, before returning to graduate school to earn her teaching certificate. She led the Japanese language program at Warren Central High School, in Indianapolis, IN, for seven years, and during that time worked actively with the Association of Indiana Teachers of Japanese. AITJ honored her by nominating her for Japanese language teacher of the year in 2007. She currently teaches Japanese and Chinese language classes at Dobson High School in Mesa, Arizona, and is president-elect of the Arizona Association of Teachers of Japanese.
