Features: The writing philosophy of this book is to allow for conversation practice after clarifying learning points, or to summarize key points after practice. The book follows the latter approach in its writing process. Conversation classes are not intensive reading classes, nor are they supplementary classes for business reading. Therefore, grammar explanations, sentence pattern drills, and other elements are not within the scope of this book's compilation. The book consists of 32 lessons, divided into three parts. Starting from the Japanese phonetics stage, it covers the entire beginner level of basic Japanese. The difficulty level of language knowledge is arranged according to the grammar acquisition sequence in the Standard Japanese for Beginners (Volumes 1 and 2). The book advocates learning to swim by swimming, with in-class feedback being a crucial part of this process. Both the main practice points and language knowledge in the language points should be appropriately introduced in class based on students' completion, rather than being pre-introduced. The book does not demand perfection in students' language expressions during practice; it only requires achieving the goal of communication. Additionally, considering the target audience is beginner-level learners, the book is written entirely in Chinese, except for the reference answers and practice points.
