Thank you for your kind comment! 💕 It's sad to hear you say you'll never achieve your dream though.. Why do you say that? Life is quite long so you still have time to do all the things you want to in life! Surely you will be able to achieve your dream and study in Japan one day!! Good luck!!! 🥰💕
@@MaddiesDays You're the kindest! Thank you so much for your lovely response ~ Your comment is so full of positive energy that I felt bad about my comment. Three years ago, I wanted to study in Japan after graduating from high school, but I didn't get the grades needed for a scholarship. So, I decided to continue my studies here in my country and give up on that dream. I also have responsibilities that mean I need to start working right after I graduate, so studying abroad feels almost impossible now. But I'm really happy to see that you studied there, and I'm incredibly proud of you ^^
@@shizu246 I feel it is feasible for you to go to Japan to study (especially if you are an American and if you do not have a family to take care of and such). Yen is at its lowest value in the last 35 years so if you were to save up for a while you could likely save enough and live there for a while. The most complicated thing going into it would be a visa to stay. Also, you would have to look up requirements for studying at a university but if you want to strictly take Japanese classes I don't think they would be too hard to surpass. I believe in you!!!!
@@shizu246 I see! I also wanted to study in Japan right after high school but because of some circumstances I had to re-take some high school classes in order to graduate. By the time I graduated high school, Covid started going around and japan closed their borders from 2020~2022. So I had to come to Japan around 3-4 years after i originally planned to😣 So I understand your disappointment! Keep trying and working towards your goal and one day you will definitely be able to come!! When I was in Japanese language school there were many student in their 30s and even 40s so it’s never too late! Good luck 💖🌸
@shizu246 I understood your sentiment, as I have been there. But you can achieve it! You’re HERE, watching Maddie’s video. You chose to watch all the way through and not click away. So you’re already taking the baby steps. Every day you wake up with your dream is another day closer to it. And it might not happen overnight, but one day you’ll wake up and opportunity will be knocking on your door. We believe in you and we want you to believe in yourself 😊
It would be great if you make a "how to take notes" video ! (especially for grammar *-*) grammar points are the thing i've been struggling with lately ~
I feel as if I never complete certain things that I want to accomplish because of feeling discouraged when I mess up but this video is making me feel fully capable of learning Japanese now!!! Tysm
I feel the same way with a lot of things! Always trying to make things 100% perfect.. But recently I heard in a video that you don’t need to aim for 100% perfectness, even 70% is okay! I believe you can do it 💕 Good luck with learning Japanese 💫⭐️
If you can, it would be interesting to see a video of how you were able to study in Japan and the whole process of it. Thank you for this video. I recently got back into studying Japanese and I wanted to know how I could study better. This video helped a lot 🙏🏽
Thanks for the idea! I already made a video kinda like this on my channel called "My experience studying at a Japanese language school". In that video I talk abt how I applied for language school/what we studied. I can make another one for how I got into Japanese college~
i have no plans to learn japanese but for some reason i love watching videos like this, i do it for other languages as well i just find them entertaining for some reason lol
YOU ARE AN ANGEL THE BEST PERSON EVER TYSM ILY ILY ILY ILY ILY I WAS STRUGGLING TO FIND SOME GOOD VIDEO AND FINALLY IM SO GLAD I CLICKED ON YOUR VIDEO.
love your videos! they motivate me to keep on my journey of being back at sutying japanese after a 6 month pause I am currently at an N4 level but I want and need a N3 soon it would be nice to see more videos for tips for keep improving because i feel kinda stuck and i have procrastination problems i am currently trying to improve on
I finished my degree program a few months ago and decided to wait until I was ready to start learning the Japanese language. I will use some of your strategies and reach out to you when things get tough. Slow and easy 😊
@@MaddiesDays Thank you so much for the support! Yes, trying to learn hiragana at the moment because I hope to study in Japan by next year! I will hopefully take all your advice as well! Keep up the awesome and helpful videos 🙂
I would love a how to take notes video for grammar, but also for Kanji. also if you could, is there any advice on how to differentiate hiragana from katakana? i've memorized all of hiragana and some of katakana but i always confuse symbols between the two.
I just started to learn Japanese with Hiragana, As you mention in the video can please make another video on How to make Grammar Notes of Japanese lang.
I have a question, what brought you to study in japan? Are you studying internationally right after high school (like for college) or what? I’m just curious because obviously I’m considering learning japanese and I want to know under what type of circumstances I would get to use the language! ^^
I always wanted to study in Japan for a long time and planned to come here right after high school but I couldn't because of covid. So I moved to Japan in 2022! Now I'm studying at a Japanese design college 🤗💕
@@MaddiesDays ooh thats awesome!! As I still don’t know what I want to do once I’m out of high school, I appreciate your input! Who knows, maybe I’ll even find my calling in japan. What do you like about japan? (If you feel like answering)
@@neitharsis I like that I can live a really nice daily life, walkable city, and it’s safe so I feel comfortable doing things by myself! Also there’s still many things I haven’t tried in Japan so I have many goals to work towards while I’m here 💖
Maybe I lost it through the video, but I saw you recommend a lot of apps and pages for speaking or katakana, etc, is there an app you can recommend to start learing how to read and write hiragana?
On further investigation I think I just realized that "Kana" is the name for the combination of both hiragana and katakana, so the memrize app should work for that, sorry lol
Flashcards will be your best friend. Either physical flashcards, or digital ones! You can use Memrise like I mentioned in the video or make your own by hand! ✨
Hi! i've finished genki 1 so jlpt n5 but i'm a bit weak with grammar after taking mock tests... Do you have any tips to remember grammar? I'm really struggling with learning it, remembering it and using it..
@@mjhmaree Personally I have never used it but it’s the most popular one that beginners usually use! I used the Tobira book and I definitely recommend Tobira 💫
@@mjhmaree They serve 2 different purposes! Tango is only for learning new words. Tobira covers different topics like grammar, vocab, reading etc. But if you don't know hiragana and some basic kanji yet it Tobira may be difficult for you. So in that case I would recommend you start learning some vocab with Tango N5

If u don’t mind, please explain more about how to use anki for learning kanji in ur next video..tysmm!
I will talk about Anki more in depth in a different video~
Thanks for your comment 💓
I bought the first heisig book recently and it confuses me so much that I don't get to learn the japanese pronunciation with it.
I would love a how to take notes video for grammar, but also for Kanji.
also if you could, is there any advice on how to differentiate hiragana from katakana? i've memorized all of hiragana and some of katakana but i always confuse symbols between the two.
Katakana is spiky, hiragana has soft strokes
I'm working on a grammar video!
Also, as the commenter above me mentioned, katakana looks more rigid and stick-like. Hiragana is smoother and fluid! 💫
@@MaddiesDays cool, thanks !
Im jest Japanese learning 2 weeks ago. Im learned hiragana and katakana. Next lesson learning tell me🤔
Which should i learn first? Words? Sentence structure or grammar
Im really confused with these 3 like i dont know how i should start it
Hi! I would recommend you to make notes making video! Since the video is very helpful for beginners like me!
Thanks for the suggestion! Noted! 🤩
I just started to learn Japanese with Hiragana,
As you mention in the video can please make another video on How to make Grammar Notes of Japanese lang.
Ok! I added it to my video ideas list~ 💓
The video was so useful thank you so much, the note taking video would be really useful, And I just wanted to point out that you're so beautiful
Okie dokie! I will work on making a note taking video 💓 💫

日本語勉強頑張ってください
Sensei ... Use tablet for learn kanji is good?
Maybe I lost it through the video, but I saw you recommend a lot of apps and pages for speaking or katakana, etc, is there an app you can recommend to start learing how to read and write hiragana?
On further investigation I think I just realized that "Kana" is the name for the combination of both hiragana and katakana, so the memrize app should work for that, sorry lol
How can I learn how to take notes in Japanese?
I'm planning on make a dedicated video on this topic~
@@MaddiesDays ahhh! Thank you so much.
めちゃくちゃかわいい声
I struggle with memorizing hiragana and katakana, any advice?
Flashcards will be your best friend. Either physical flashcards, or digital ones! You can use Memrise like I mentioned in the video or make your own by hand! ✨
very informative video, It is great for beginners!! I hope your channel blows up soon so people get this as a resource! Thank you🤍
@@jelliejj thank you 💖💖 I hope so too LOL 🤣
Hi! i've finished genki 1 so jlpt n5 but i'm a bit weak with grammar after taking mock tests... Do you have any tips to remember grammar? I'm really struggling with learning it, remembering it and using it..
I will make a dedicated video for grammar!
@@MaddiesDays ooooh thank you so much I’ll make sure to check it out when it’s out
Very helpful ❤❤❤
Yay! I’m happy it could help you 🤗
@@MaddiesDays 💝💝
Your videos are really good 😊
precisava disso
obrigado💖
Kanji scares me 😭
Would you recommend using the genki book?.
@@mjhmaree Personally I have never used it but it’s the most popular one that beginners usually use! I used the Tobira book and I definitely recommend Tobira 💫
If you try out the genki book you should make a review about that if you want too and thank you for the recommendation tho
Would you recommend tobira more than tango Japanese book
And would tobira be understandable for a person who barely knows Japanese?.
@@mjhmaree They serve 2 different purposes! Tango is only for learning new words. Tobira covers different topics like grammar, vocab, reading etc. But if you don't know hiragana and some basic kanji yet it Tobira may be difficult for you. So in that case I would recommend you start learning some vocab with Tango N5
I need pdf books if u know?
I don't know of any PDF books, but usually Amazon has kindle or digital versions of books on their site!
