Description

A cute, ad-free, and enjoyable learning experience is waiting for you in the Renshuu community! The free version is unlimited: there’s no timer before you are forced to pay!

- A path for every learning style and every goal -
Whether you are getting started with the alphabets or have been studying for years, jump in exactly where you belong! Don’t waste time going through what you already know.

Renshuu maintains learning paths for most textbooks, the JLPT, Kanji Kentei, and for those who just want to learn. You can also carve out your own path! Our community has over 10,000 user-made lessons for even more focused learning.

- Cute, relaxing, and fun -
Our mascot Kao-chan is here to let you enjoy learning Japanese, whether it’s through collectible coins every time you quiz, a character that evolves as you learn, manga pages that you unlock, or hundreds of hand-made illustrations.

Additionally, we have both single and multiplayer games to help you keep your learning and reviewing fresh!

- Personal service -
We are just a two-person company - and we don’t use chat bots. That means that every question you have gets an answer directly from us.

- Rich, in-depth materials -
> Vocabulary: over 15,000 native-recorded audio files, 17,000 hand-picked images, and 160,000 example sentences make understanding vocabulary a breeze. Our growing library of accent/pitch data can even help you with accent reduction.
> Kanji: 12,000+ kanji, with no limits on what you can study! Over 2,000 colorful mnemonics help you to understand and retain the meanings.
> Grammar: Over 800 different expressions, each complete with native-written model sentences, construction diagrams, audio, and over 7,500 hand-made quiz questions.
> Sentences: Thousands of sentences complete with audio, divided by theme and difficulty levels.

- A superior quiz system designed around Japanese -
Our SRS-for-Japanese system doesn’t treat Japanese materials like flashcards to be memorized, and breaks every item down into individual components so you can understand, and not just memorize. Mastery schedules keep you studying only what you need to, pushing weaker materials to the front for you to focus on.

Dozens of different question styles keep things fresh, while a flexible input system (multiple choice, typing, or writing) lets you answer the way that you want to.

- Customizable down to the last character -
Renshuu doesn’t believe that there is a single way of studying that everyone should adhere to. Our expansive settings and customizations let you adjust the learning environment to what works best for you.

Goldmine of Japanese learning resources

It is not a secret that Japanese takes many years to master, and the key for success is motivation, if the learning process is not fun, you l’ll grind to halt pretty soon, but renshuu gives you that fully customisable and adaptable to your current level learning environment , be it for kanji memorisation, vocabulary, sentence pattern, grammar, and even pitch accent for all words, which are pre-arranged in the order as they appear in particular textbooks of choice. The resources are very rich and varied and the whole environment makes studying so much more enjoyable because you can tune it to your particular needs, the program keeps track of your progress and let you gradually reach proficiency at JPLT levels N5, N4, and all the way to N1. The gamification of language learning is not new, but the way it is implemented in renshuu deserves six stars! To keep your motivation in learning Japanese one requires that magic touch, that special place where you can just go and enjoy the process, the community to share your progress with and get support and encouragement. Renshuu is the best discovery I have made on my way of mastering Japanese language! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
