13 Secrets for Speaking Fluent Japanese

Rating:
Summary: Good for elementary learners
Review: This boook may be helpful to those who have had one or two years of college level japanese or are at an equivalent speaking level. If you are in the beginning of your studies and think that this book will help acquire fluency at a quicker pace then be warned. Most of the concepts were well beyond my own pitiful knowledge of the language which rests at about one semester equivalency. I think that the book may be helpful down the road, but at the incipient stages of learning only the first chapter or two can be used. This is definitely for more advanced speakers who can communicate fairly well and need that extra 'insiders' knowledge to boost them towards a native speakers level.
