Re-watching Goblin and reading the korean subs along with the printed script to re-read and mark new words as well as those I already know 😁

Here are a bunch of resources (I put them in a very shoddy manner, I’m sorry) that I plan on using, have used and whatnot. I’ll probably add more to this in the future, but in the meantime, have fun with it! I’ll list summaries regarding the sites listed. *90% of the sites include links to the apps, and if not let me know or your best bet is that I mentioned it or linked the app on my March 7th masterpost of resources used so far as of 2018*

Japanese :

http://drmoku.com/ https://www.marugoto-online.jp/info/ https://minato-jf.jp/Home/ http://www.erin.ne.jp/en/ http://anime-manga.jp/index_english.html http://www.tofugu.com/

So I have experience with a few of the links. If you watch NHK like the channel or news, some of the links above are being broadcasted on the channel. I’ve never used them directly on my desktop, but I have experience with Dr. Moku. A mnemonic based methodology, one can learn Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. I think it’s free for the most part, and if not, one can visit Tofugu as well. Way more Japanese resources can be found at this Japanese hub. They also happen to have a basic free unit on how to get started on self-studying.

Korean:

http://www.sejonghakdang.org/ http://talktomeinkorean.com/ I didn’t list a lot of links here. I didn’t list a lot of links since that would be a lot of apps. Sejong is free and is kind of like a self-study language school and ttmik is a classic beginner’s strategy? was that even english Typically most people know of it, I have one of their books and they have free lessons too, but I just never really caught on to it. (This also goes for the other two languages [Asian])

Chinese:

http://chineasy.org/

I don’t have a lot of links for Chinese either. Out of the three Asian languages mentioned thus far, I’m far more advanced in Korean due to its easy writing system (and kpop) and then Japanese as I’ve visited before and just happen to watch more of their dramas. Chineasy helps people learn intonation, stroke order and whatnot, but I too am still on the journey to find a really good reliable source. 

Western Languages:

https://learn.lingvist.com/ Now I don’t have a lot of resources as many people already know of a lot of language learning services like busuu, mango, lang8, some of those below and just many many more. Lingvist is different in its interface, showcasing minimalism but also a sort of more active-learning style that definitely has things sticking in peoples’ brains.  Mixed/Other:

https://www.duolingo.com/ https://www.memrise.com/ https://www.lingodeer.com/ HIKARI NAKASHIMA

I don’t think I need to really talk about memrise or duolingo, but I want to remind people that these sources aren’t completely reliable. (Especially memrise, a French teacher of mine had told me that people could alter it? And I think that’s true, so be wary. The same goes for finding sources on Tumblr.) And as for LingoDeer, it’s pretty much Duolingo, but way MORE thorough with grammatical explanations and whatnot. So I capitalized this Japanese guy’s name since he has apps on the Play and App Store with Japanese, Korean, Chinese and even French I think. He has free versions of all his apps, so take a shot at that too. They’re pretty absurd, but because they are, it’s actually really fun. 

Study With me: 100 days of Productivity

I bought a Kanken bag in the size big at the very end of December (December 27th I believe) and I’ve decided to do a review since I didn’t really see many online when I was looking! I’ll also be providing images with this hella long review! I hope this is helpful ^^
