One thing every strong Japanese speaker has in common is regular speaking practice. So let’s make that opportunity for us and make it simple, supportive and consistent. Introducing: Paired Speaking Practice! 🔹 How it works Each week I’ll post: - A conversation topic - A short practice dialogue - Audio to model natural pronunciation 🔹 What you do 1. Reply to the weekly post to let me know you’re in 2. I’ll create random pairings for the week 3. Contact your practice partner and organise a 5–10 minute speaking session 4. When you’re done, report back in the thread ✅ That’s it. 🔹 Why this matters If you commit to this weekly: - Your confidence will grow - Your listening and response speed will improve - By the end of the year, those 5–10 minute chats can naturally become 30 to 40 minute conversations (or more!!) No pressure to be perfect. The goal is showing up and speaking. 👉 Comment below if you’d like to join the Paired Speaking Practice! I’ll get the first topic ready once we have our initial group.
