Ikiteiru Nihongo is a total package for teaching Japanese language to high school students. It is carefully designed and sequenced to encourage proficiency in all four language acquisition skills. It has several key features:

  • Ikiteiru Nihongo's student-centered, systematic approach creates a rich learning environment.
  • Communication with native speakers is possible from the first year of study.
  • Activities are realistic, fun and designed to accommodate different learning styles.
  • Critical thinking skills and creativity are fostered both throughout the text and in the sequence of activities.
  • Students get a real insight into the Japanese culture from the "culture notes" placed throughout the text.

The complete three-volume series of teacher's manuals and student workbooks costs roughly $950.00 U.S. with unlimited duplication allowed within the purchasing institution.
