The easiest way to learn any language bar non is by making a friend who is fluent in the language you want to learn and knows very little of your language (or will agree to speak mostly in their native tongue). I know of this from experience. I was fluent is Italian and had moderate French knowledge when I moved to Japan 5 years ago due to my husband being in the military. I knew not ONE word of Japanese. I bought books, Cd's, DVDs, PC programs etc and  learned close to nothing as Japanese is an EXTREMELY difficult language to learn. Then, once I made a Japanese friend who spoke close to NO English, I started picking up so fast it was unbelievable. I am now FLUENT in Japanese and it took all of 6 months. I could get myself around in about 1 month. Many people had recommended this to me and now tried and true I recommend it to you. There are a couple of ways to find friends for such as well. Finding language exchange partners on-line is easy or visiting local colleges culture clubs which most members are second language English generation. Good Luck on your endeavor!!

To work legally in Japan you need a Bachelor's degree in any subject.  Employers like people with English or Linguistics degrees, but that's not a legal requirement.  The biggest program is the JET program, which recruits English-speaking graduates to work as language assistants in public schools.  This is run by the Japanese government.  The two biggest private schools are GEOS and AEON.  These are private, for-profit schools with many different locations.  Personally, I wouldn't work in one.  However, lots of people have good experiences with those companies.  No matter where you decide to go and which company you decide to work for, READ AND UNDERSTAND YOUR CONTRACT.

go to your county library and ask if there is a Japanese consulate in your area and they can find someone willing to tutor you.

What language do you speak now? I learned to speak Japanese with Pimsleur.

Some magnet schools (including elementary schools) in Chicago teach Japanese, as do some prep schools.  My (private prep) high school in Virginia didn't teach Japanese, but our brother school did.  So some of the better high schools in all parts of the country do teach it, though a lot do not.  I think Chinese is the new hot language for prep schools to teach, and this has taken away from Japanese.\n\nIf you love learning Japanese, you should consider doing the JET Programme after college (http://www.jetprogramme.org).  It's a good way to improve you language skills, make some money, and live somewhere a little different.

♡Well, Tokyo is very big and you don't say where in Tokyo you'll be so, I'll just give you a few choices and depending on where you are, you can look into them if you're interested. Most City Hall offices offer FREE (or very CHEAP) Japanese language classes for foreigners. They're pretty good classes and the people are very kind and helpful. Good luck and I hope this helps!♡\n**For example, here's some info on classes offered in Itabashi:\nhttp://www.city.itabashi.tokyo.jp/icief/iciefboard/english/mar_17_e.pdf#search='tokyo%20City%20hall'\n**Or Meguro:\nhttp://home.h08.itscom.net/crayons/Japanese%20Class.htm\nhttp://home.h08.itscom.net/crayons/Map.htm\n**Or you can choose schools from these English lists:\nhttp://www.aikgroup.co.jp/j-school/english/alphabet/menu/t.htm\nhttp://www.murasakishikibu.co.jp/jls/

This could be done through practical learning in the language environment.  A classroom/language village could be so used.

I don't imagine you will find many (or any) free E-books for beginning Japanese.  I would recommend going to your local library where you can check out Japanese language books for free and hopefully there will be a large enough selection to find something you like.  I wouldn't recommend Japanese children stories; the majority are not as easy to read as you might think.  Some children's stories use "kiddy" words you may not find in your dictionary and grammar or slang that might be difficult to decipher.\n\nThere are increasingly more websites on the internet to help learn Japanese, but getting a book from your library might be a better route to take.  If you are looking to buy some books I would recommend the Genki textbooks ( http://www.genki-online.com/ ); you can find some samples there as well.\n\nGood luck!

Hello,\nI´m German and I think your text is great!!!\nBut here are some little upgrades:\nMein Lieblingsfach ist Deutsch, da es in einer kleinen, interessanten Klasse unterrichtet wird, in der eine entspannende Atmosphäre vorherrscht. \nAuf der anderen Seite finde finde ich Erdkunde eher langweilig.\nDieses Jahr ist mein letztes Jahr an dieser Schule und es ist sehr anstrengend.\nWir haben sehr viele Prüfungen und ich denke, dass ich manche nicht bestanden habe. \nJede Unterrichtsstunde dauert fünfzig Minuten. \nI hope, I could help you =)

I would chose a combination - some stories in English and some in your mother tongue.  Children who grow up in a multilingual environment will have a great advantage when they're older - being able to speak at least two languages gives them a head start over others not only for education purposes but also when looking for a job.  Preschool age is a great age to start learning languages and you will be surprised how much your child will advance in the coming years if you carry on communicating in both languages.

Hmmm... What do you mean by fast? Is 4 years fast? This is how much it got me to actually say I can use my Japanese... I think all the languages you would like to learn take at least 2 or 3 years. For Japanese, there are plenty of good sites on the internet. You could use them. I dont know any courses, though. Don't worry for your spelling. It's perfectly understandable. Good luck with the others!

I believe all should be done.  We are in a bilingual community, and I work with children, one of which is in Kindergarten right now.  They are taught to read in english in kindergarten, and to write so that they get the basics in their own language.  They are taught how to interact with each other, respect each other, share, and so on, and are still given lots of time to play.  Children are such sponges at this age for information, that I think it's great when they can be taught as much as they can.  In grade one they can take on French only classes for the rest of their school years {except for one English class a day}.  During this time they do all their classes in French, which is our second language, and learn all their subjects in French.  No English is allowed to be taught in the classrooms after the first few months of grade one.  By the time they graduate, even slow learners are bilingual.  Most are able to speak the language quite frequently by grad 6 or 8, but are completely bilingual by graduation.  I hope this helps.

Hi Gangadhar,\n\nAs far as I know Kannada is taught in all ICSE schools in Bangalore as the second language. You could make a representation to the ICSE board to permit your daughters to persue either Hindi or Tamil as the second language. Similar provisions have been made to accomodate students from other states/countries.
