【A new episode will be released every other Thursday at 8 AM (UTC+1)📡】Hi, I’m Yuzu! Welcome to my podcast, where Japanese learners worldwide can enjoy stories read by me, with subtitles. I create stories for levels A1 to B1, helping you improve listening skills while enjoying engaging content. Each episode is designed not just by vocabulary difficulty but also by grammar focus.
