Azumi’s Easy Japanese Small Talk

Azumi’s Easy Japanese Small Talk

By Azumi

This is a podcast for those who are learning Japanese. I’ll talk about an article of News Web Easy per episode for about 20 mins. 🔶The first 5-min for small talk and reading aloud an article for "beginner learners" 🔶The next 15-min for an explanation of the article for "N4-level le" 🔶After 20-min for providing deep background or information for "intermediate learners" Here is my listener's thought why they think we should listen to this podcast even if we cannot understand it well.⇨https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7aQlrhZNOA&list=PLNirmnzqjsoi9P_IibHLB4mNsSYJkjR20&index=13
