It is very difficult to get Japanese Language study material in India. It is very expensive and time consuming to buy it from Japan, especially pictures, picture cards cassette tapes, videos and CD ROMs etc. Study materials are not the only means for students to study Japanese. So internet is a strong ally. There are many sites which permit free downloads. These sites have reading passages, conversational passages, kanji practice and even online dictionaries. They also provide grammatical explanations, teaching plans and other materials for preparing study material and other tools for teachers.
