This is a podcast for those who are learning Japanese. I’ll talk about an article of News Web Easy per episode for about 20 mins. 🔶The first 5-min for small talk and reading aloud an article for "beginner learners"🔶The next 15-min for an explanation of the article for "N4-level le"🔶After 20-min for providing deep background or information for "intermediate learners"Here is my listener's thought why they think we should listen to this podcast even if we cannot understand it well.⇨https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7aQlrhZNOA&list=PLNirmnzqjsoi9P_IibHLB4mNsSYJkjR20&index=13
