About this listen

No books. No long lists of vocabulary. No chance of failure.

Welcome to Learn with Paul Noble – a tried and tested language learning method that has been used by over 1 million people to speak fluently and confidently.

With Paul Noble’s simple, relaxed approach you will learn in a way that suits you – without having to memorise long lists of words you won’t use; scribbling notes as you listen; or feeling frustrated. Instead, Paul will introduce you to the basics of Japanese and guide you through over 15 hours of everyday scenarios – from simple situations like asking for directions and eating out to talking about yourself and how to master the different tenses – that are practical, fun, and applicable. Just listen, interact, and learn wherever you are.

Whatever your experience with languages, whether you’re an absolute beginner or someone with basic knowledge who wants to improve their ability, this is the course to get you speaking Japanese quickly and confidently.

A native Japanese expert will help you to perfect your pronunciation as you progress through the course. You will learn a huge range of vocabulary in no time at all, and be able to quickly make your new knowledge work for you in a variety of everyday scenarios. A downloadable booklet is also included to use as a reference and revision tool.

Paul Noble left school unable to speak a language – having found that the traditional learning methods left him feeling ‘confused, incapable and unable to really say anything’. Determined that there must be a better way to learn, Paul spent years devising his own unique method of learning languages which cuts out all the grammar, all the memorisation, and all the stress. He began using his method to teach in his Language Institute and, thousands of students later, he prides himself on never having had a student fail.

This download contains the entire course – Parts 1, 2, and 3. To continue your language learning journey once you’ve completed this course, download Next Steps in Japanese with Paul Noble for Intermediate Learners – Complete Course.

The accompanying booklet is also available at: collinsdictionary.com/resources.

The Paul Noble language books work like magic. It’s very interactive and makes it feel like you are being tutored face to face. I can’t say I’ll remember everything that Paul Noble has taught me in this book, but I will certainly remember most of it and I may come back to it and listen again if I want to brush up my basic Japanese. Moving on to the next book now - ‘Next Steps in Japanese with Paul Noble’!

Highly recommend his books if you’re looking to learn a new language.

I loved this audiobook. The way it is set out meant I learnt quickly and found it easy to remember the Japanese words and sentences that were introduced. As I was saying the words aloud, it got me more comfortable with speaking Japanese. It also got me excited about learning more!

I learnt so much!

I love this. It gave me a good starting point for learning the words and structures without having to sit down and learn it. I have been listening and following as I go back and forth from work. The ability to try and say the words and have it confirmed afterwards was really good. It also made me so much more confident in saying sentences “fluently” which was such a big deal. My confidence to learn has been boosted so much that I will keep on going and work on the minutiae of the letters and words. Time to buy the Advanced audiobook. :)

Great starting point for learning!!!

Really liked this course. I have been using Duolingo to learn Japanese for a few months and this book really helped me understand grammar better. I think it helped that I already had a basic Japanese vocabulary . This course greatly extended my understanding of sentence composition in an easy to understand way and explained a lot that Duolingo does not. I will be listening to the next book to delve further.

Excellent course

This course was great! It took me about a week and I really feel like it was an incredible introduction. Although you don’t learn a lot of vocabulary, you do learn how to do a lot with the stuff you’re taught! You learn how to conjugate verbs into the past, present (and technically the future although you’ll see what i mean by this in the course), as well as a few other verb forms which will be very useful. Honestly though, while the vocabulary was definitely travel oriented, i didn’t mind at all. There is also a review section at the end which i’m looking forward to doing every now and again to make sure this information is locked in before I listen to the second course!

Perfect way to get yourself started!

This course makes some bold claims at start, the same claims we have all heard and tend to not be true. I’m am pleased to report that this course delivers. We all learn differently and at a different pace. So this may not be as successful for everyone, but as someone who would not describe themselves as a fast learner, I was surprised to find how easily I retained what I leaned during.

Brilliant
