**①Improvement of Writing and Speaking**
こんにちは。I am Japanese. To study English, I am teaching Japanese in English. In this series, I will share my practice way for N5 Beginner and Intermediate level learners who want to write sentences as review.
This series also contains Speaking exercise for Beginner level. Usually, beginners could have difficulty to judge which topic is more important. From viewpoint of Japanese, I will pick up more important and skip less important grammar topics. So, you can save time. This could be shortcut.
If you try to write your answer in accordance with below “②Instruction of Exercise” and post them in “48 hours” from posting this thread, I try to comment and check your sentences. Although I cannot respond to all (Especially, off topic) because I have limitation of time, I try to comment. Also welcome SNS and Reddit account follow.
​
**②Instruction of Exercise**
If you are N5 Beginner level, start from “**Procedure 1”**. If you are intermediate level learner, see **“Procedure 2”**. (If you want to choose other grammar topic, **see ④**)
​
**“Procedure１ for Beginner Level”**
(Step1): Check “Vocabulary” meaning in the list from the below link.
(Step2): Check and understand “Grammar” from the below link.
(Step3)：You can check “Speaking Practice Video” in the below link and get used to how to use appropriately this time grammar topic to make sentence. You can also check “Practice Sheet”. You can use it for your speaking practice.

​
(Step4): Writing Exercise:
(W1) Read “☆Basic Example Dialogue” between Person A&B below. The Dialogue contains Grammar Topic “います”.
(W2) Try to make your dialogue between Person A&B like “☆Basic Example Dialogue”. In your dialogue, please try to use this time grammar topic “います” appropriately. Millions of mistakes are necessary for improvement, so you do not have to hesitate.
N5 level learner, if you have difficulty to write Dialogue style sentence, it is OK to write single sentences with grammar topic and also OK to use only Hiragana. (It is easy-to-read to make space between word and word).
(W3) Post and share your dialogues in 48 hours from posting this thread.
​
**“Procedure 2 for Intermediate Level”**
(W4) Like below “☆Advanced Example Dialogue”, try to use this time Grammar topic **“**います**”** **at least once** and make your original Dialogue. In other words, if you just use the topic at least once, you do not have to use the topic anymore and you can make your dialogue freely. It is also OK to add more Person A&B part to make longer Dialogue.
(W5) Post your Dialogue in 48 hours from posting this thread.
​
**③Example Dialogues**
I cited below \[\*1\] sentences and translations from Page 68 in Minna No Nihongo Second Edition Elementary Japanese 1 Translation & Grammar Notes – English. To make dialogue structure, based on \[\*1\] sentence, I wrote \[\*2\] Response sentence as Person B’s line. I added “\[ \] My grammar interpretation”.
​
**“☆Basic Example Dialogue”**
A: うけつけに だれが いますか。 \[\*1\]
uketsukeni darega imasuka
Who’s at the reception desk? \[\*1\]
\[Last time, we learned “Placeに＋Nounが＋あります” to indicate description “There is Noun in Place.” To indicate “There is Person/Animal in Place or Person/Animal is in Place”, we use “Placeに＋Person/Animalが＋います”.\]
B1: きむらさんが います。 \[\*1\]
kimurasan ga imasu
Mr. Kimura is. \[\*1\]
\[Full sentence is “うけつけに きむらさんが います。”. うけつけPlace + に + きむらさんPerson + が + います。 We can omit うけつけに.\]
B2: うけつけに だれも いません。 \[\*2\]
uketsukeni daremo imasen
No one there/ There is nobody.
\[If there is no one, we can say だれも いません。\]
​
**“☆Advanced Example”**
A: この時間帯（じかんたい）は工場（こうじょう）に誰（だれ）がいますか。
B: 多分（たぶん）、山下さんがいると思います。残業（ざんぎょう）していると思いますよ。
A: そうですか。ちょっと山下さんに用事（ようじ）があるので、30分だけ、Bさんが山下さんと交代（こうたい）して下さい。
B: 分かりました。じゃあ、山下さんを呼（よ）んできますね。
So, like this, if you add \[ \] explanation and English translation, it will be helpful to understand and check your sentences more accurately.
​
**④Choose a topic form the List and Write your sentences.**
If you want to write sentences with other grammar topics for N5 Level learning or review.
(W6) Check the below Grammar List and choose a topic.
(W7) Write your single style sentences with the grammar topic. Or like above “Advanced Example”, try to write Person A and B Dialogue with your chosen grammar topic.
(You can see “lesson number” and “name of grammar topic” on the list. So, please write your chosen lesson number e.g., L14-2 and name of the topic with your sentences. it will be helpful to understand and check your sentences more accurately.)
(W8) Post your Dialogue in 48 hours from posting this thread.
