About this listen
For high-beginner to low-intermediate learners
Master real spoken Japanese in the next 30 days with this innovative, story-based immersion course, and learn to sound like a native when you speak. Just listen to one chapter per day, complete the exercises, and watch as you start saying exactly what you wanted to say!
“I love Olly’s work—and you will too!” (Barbara Oakley, PhD, author of New York Times best seller A Mind for Numbers)
Have you ever tried to speak Japanese with a native only to realize it’s not as easy as it seems in the classroom? Native Japanese speakers don’t talk like your textbook, and neither should you. This story, told entirely in conversation form, will teach you authentic Japanese expressions, accents, abbreviations, idioms, and everything you’ll need to improve your spoken Japanese and start sounding like a native.
With 30-Day Mastery: Spoken Japanese Made Simple, you'll learn through example and context, just like native speakers do! The magic of learning through story is that your main focus is actually not on memorizing anything...you concentrate on understanding and enjoying the story! As you're listening to the story, you will find that your brain develops a natural, instinctive understanding of spoken Japanese. It doesn't happen right away—in fact it may take a couple of weeks for you to feel the real effects. But by the end of this book, you'll have a native-like command of spoken Japanese that will amaze you and your friends!
Not yet convinced? Here are all the features you will find in this book:
- Short chapters of 300 words each—just listen to one chapter a day for 30 days!
- A text designed specifically for students at high-beginner, low-intermediate level
- A detailed language overview so you can review and quickly understand the difficult parts of the story
- Short daily exercises to practice your new knowledge as you go
- Bilingual word lists to quickly look up new vocabulary

Story
Language learning is seen as something incredibly difficult, and most speakers of English are brought up with the idea that we English speakers just aren't good at learning languages. But what if this isn't the true story? What if you could easily learn a new language and have fun doing it? In this book, I pull back the curtain to reveal the mindset and methodology of a polyglot. This book will dispel the myths, lay the foundations of the correct mindset for success, and inspire you to commit to learning that language you've always wanted to master.

Memories are the cornerstones of our identity, shaping who we are, how we act, and how we feel. In his work as a happiness researcher, Meik Wiking has learned that people are happier if they hold a positive, nostalgic view of the past. But how do we make and keep the memories that bring us lasting joy? The Art of Making Memories examines how mental images are made, stored, and recalled in our brains, as well as the "art of letting go" - why we tend to forget certain moments to make room for deeper, more meaningful ones.

Story
Every day, three times a day, the students march in two straight lines, singing praises to Kim Jong-il and North Korea: Without you, there is no motherland. Without you, there is no us. It is a chilling scene, but gradually Suki Kim, too, learns the tune and, without noticing, begins to hum it. It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, the students sent to construction fields - except for the 270 students at the all-male Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST).

Education can be enriching and transformative. It can also be downright excruciating—even demoralizing. When it comes to learning, why are some of us lovers and some of us haters? Welcome to the world of educational psychology, which uses science to explore what causes people to engage and learn, and what we can do to make learning opportunities more enjoyable and impactful. Spoiler alert: Teachers can only do so much. Students, too, must take control of their learning. Unfortunately, many of us never, ahem, learned the skills to do just that.
