    Hi,

    I am Priya. I am preparing for JLPT N1 . Your quizzes are very helpful . Any suggestions on preparation for 読解 other than just studying from 新完全マスタ。Kindly suggest any good novels/ online journals.

    宜しくお願いします。

    1. こんにちは Priya,

      Thanks for your comment! A good way to practice 読解 is by reading news articles in Japanese. You can download a mobile phone app and read news on the go!

      Cheers 🙂

        ラニタさん、

        お疲れ様です。Thanks for the suggestion. I have installed an app that helps read 記事 from many newspapers like 毎日新聞,日経 etc.
        This helps.
        I am able to get a fair grasp on 文法/聴解 , but 文字・語彙and 読解(the speed especially) are especially a challenge for me. Believe I can get better by working on the quizzes from Sakuramani.
