    Greetings,
    I help Japanese exchange students with conversational english and was wondering if there were any services similar to textfugu/tofugu/wanikani for Japanese who want to learn or improve their english.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

    The only English learning resources I know of are Englishpod101 and Antimoon. Neither are like TextFugu though, but may as well mention them :)

    I just remembered, Koichi has a Japanese Tofugu counterpart – it’s called “Koichiben”. It’s written in Japanese and is about American culture. No idea how often he updates it, but it used to be very infrequent from what I remember. There used to be a whole bunch of articles, but I can’t see anything past the first page :( Aha, as far as I can tell, he’s “restarted” it, but he says he’ll repost the old articles in time. He’s not a native speaker, but I’m sure your students will find it interesting :)

    Does anyone know of any Textfugu equivalents for studying…

    Mandarin?
    Cantonese?

    German?
    Romantic Languages?

    I’m unlikely to study all of these at the same time, just curious if anyone has seen similar projects.

    I don’t think there are really any TextFugu equivalents for any language – this book/author/teaching style is fairly unique, I think. There *might* have been something similar for Korean, but I honestly can’t remember, it was mentioned on this forum so long ago.
