The aim of the textbook is to solidify the grammar, vocabulary, and kanji foundation that you have studied up until intermediate level, and to them develop the four language skills of reading, listening, writing, and speaking further. To help do this, Tobira provides a full multimedia kit on their website that you can use in conjunction with this textbook.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the 15 chapters of the book, there are some excellent English explanations of grammar points, and some furigana over uncommon words is also provided, but one thing that makes this book so popular is that there are no translations for the excerpts, dialogues, or example sentences. The book pushes you to read, write, and understand Japanese at a proficient level right from page 1, removing the crutch many students have often relied on in their studies up until this point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIt is highly recommended to sign up on the Tobira website to download their supplemental learning materials to get the maximum effect out of this textbook; there are first-rate grammar and kanji worksheets and other study materials for every chapter absolutely free.
