• On this page, you’ll find easy-to-understand videos for every single sentence pattern you learn in each section of GENKI, a best-selling elementary Japanese textbook series for international students (click here for the GENKI website).
• Watching videos will help you better understand sentence patterns that are difficult to grasp just by reading the descriptions in the textbook.
• Since a video is produced for each sentence pattern, you can easily choose the one you want to view and watch it as many times as you like.
• You can also have fun and learn without getting bored since many of the videos are very humorous.
• Teachers who use GENKI can use the videos for the introduction, practice, and review of lessons as well.
