Hello. My name is Ryan and I am in Nazikian Sensei's Japanese class. This is my first time learning Japanese, and it's been about two weeks since class started. I'm really excited to learn Japanese. I decided to learn Japanese because I love traveling, and I thought it would be really nice to be able to speak Japanese when I visit Japan. I really hope that I'll someday be able to speak and read Japanese fluently. The hardest part of learning Japanese so far was learning hirakana, but I now memorized most hirakana words. Hopefully memorizing katakana and kanji won't be as hard...
