Move from familiar N4 material toward the broader situations of N3 with a plan you can repeat.

The idea

Start with an N4 check and note gaps. Set a manageable weekly schedule: recall vocabulary on several days, read a short text, listen for its main point, and try a sample question. Record why an answer was wrong, then give the weakest skill extra time next week. N3 bridges basic Japanese and more everyday situations; adjust the amount to your available time.

Examples

  • 昨日きのう覚おぼえた言葉ことばを今日きょう復習ふくしゅうします。I review the words I learned yesterday today.
  • 短みじかい記事きじを読よんで、知しらない言葉ことばを調しらべます。I read a short article and look up words I do not know.
  • 一度いちど聞きいて、大事だいじな内容ないようを確たしかめます。I listen once and check the main point.
  • 問題もんだいを間違まちがえた理由りゆうを書かきます。I write down why I got the question wrong.
  • 来週らいしゅうはもっと聞きく練習れんしゅうをします。Next week I will practise listening more.
  • 試験しけんの前まえに、例題れいだいを解ときます。Before the test, I solve a sample question.

Read-aloud uses a synthetic Japanese voice available on your device. Voice quality and availability vary; it does not assess your pronunciation.

Watch out

A high score on isolated vocabulary does not guarantee that you can follow a passage or recording. Mix skills and revisit mistakes instead of simply adding new words.

Use it today

Draft one week with specific days and materials. At the end, record one difficulty and change one session for the following week.
