Features: "Listening, speaking, reading, writing, and translation" are the five fundamental components of foreign language learning. To master a foreign language, one should grasp these five aspects. However, for foreign language learners outside the language environment, "listening and speaking" become the most formidable obstacles on the path forward, especially for non-majors, self-learners, and advanced learners. The New Japanese Basic Course 1 & 2 effectively addresses this issue. The fact that this textbook has become the best-selling Japanese course globally (according to Asahi Shimbun) and holds a 60% market share in Japan is no coincidence. It is the result of nearly four decades of continuous exploration, refinement, and revision by the Overseas Technical Training Association (AOTS), spanning three painstakingly developed versions, culminating in the current New Japanese Basic Course 1 & 2.
