    Hi!
    I’m Connor, I reside in England and am currently studying for my A-Levels.
    My main motive for attempting to learn Japanese is that GCSE German failed so utterly for me! This was mainly down to a lack of interest in German and language learning as a whole (Why should I? I don’t plan to go to Germany for any period of time .etc were common excuses for procrastination.). Somehow, leaving year 11 with a D grade and very little understanding of the German language encouraged me to take up Japanese. Partially to prove to myself that I can indeed learn another language, or at least, see how far I can get with a language that I am interested in.
    Of course, it’s not just a technical exercise for me to prove a point like the above paragraph would have you think. I do find something about Japanese culture interesting and want to visit Japan at some point in the future, if only for a brief period, and possibly teach there if everything goes to plan.
    Oh and being able to play Japan only releases would be cool too.
    So yeah, Hello!

    Hello! I know how you feel when you say you didn’t come away from your German class with anything. I took a French class in high school and pretty much forgot everything as soon as it was finished. The best thing about TextFugu is that it seems to just imprint the information in your brain, which school-teachers of all sorts don’t even remotely know how to do.
