I was a teacher of that method for 3 years and trained others in it. Robin Callan pioneered the method.

It would broadly work as follows. You'd hold a pencil in your hand and say, 'kore wa enpitsu desu ka, kore wa enpitsu desu ka?' and the student would answer, 'Hai, kore (or 'sore', depending on the distance from the teacher) wa enpitsu desu'. Each question is asked twice with a swift and rythmic tempo. Then, you immediately prompt the student to produce the answer. It's highly visual and rythmic in the first 4 stages. You work your way through many useful/everyday items.

I am not the biggest advocate of the method but the lower stages can be effective if the teacher is committed to the process.

I think you took my post to literally, as I do not mean to state that I learned Japanese fluently soley through the use of these programs. I studied abroad a year at Meiji Gakuin, and also at Middlebury College and UCLA.

Geez, it's depressing. Once upon a time I could use those characters on my keitai but I've forgotten much. Still, some things I'm just not supposed to know

You've already proved to me that you're a big liar. You don't know 1/80 of the Japanese you pretend to know.

I really think this is getting out of hand. x_x;;


Honestly, I think it would be rather difficult to learn any language easily and quickly as one would want to. I'm learning Japanese, and it gets frustrating when I am not understanding as fast as everyone else. But, I believe that if one wants to learn something the right way, there are no easy nor quick methods to doing so.

Its a long road to learning a language fluently...

Trust me. My English grammar sucks, and I've been in English classes for 15 years!!! (12 years in high school, plus an additional three in college).

Your English grammar looks fine to me and I'm an award-winning English teacher. Keep up the good work
