DESCRIPTION

Ubisoft's series of language-building games takes a trip to the Land of the Rising Sun in My Japanese Coach. Lesson plans take gamers from Tokyo to the countryside as they use the DS' record and playback function to learn to pronounce unique Japanese sounds by comparing their voice to native speakers. Gamers can also develop their Japanese writing skills using the stylus and touch screen, and a dozen mini-games are designed to provide an enjoyable way to reinforce the new information. My Japanese Coach also features a built in reference tool that lets player look up more than 12,000 Japanese words and several hundred common phrases. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide
