Learn Japanese 88: John Sensei Goes Off on how Japanese is taught

This episode is a little bit different. The episode was recorded one time, with no editing and not in the studio. In this episode, John-Sensei goes off on how Japanese is taught at the university and in textbooks. We decided to put it up unedited because we feel like it speaks to the state of how Japanese is being taught.

We at Manga Sensei feel the same way. We are sick and tired of how Japanese is being taught and are 100% dedicated to bringing Japanese out of the stone age in regards to teaching. Which was the whole reason we started Manga Sensei in the first place; to fight back against the man and teach Japanese in a way that anyone can learn it. By not only allowing them to make mistakes, but encouraging them to do so.

WARNING: John Sensei gets very passionate in this episode.
