Learners who passed with NihonGyan
I failed N4 twice with textbooks. Practising the papers with Nepali explanations finally showed me why my answers were wrong. Passed in December.
The listening audio with transcripts is exactly like the exam room. I played each mondai until I could answer without reading. My listening score doubled.
Free real papers, no login, works on my old phone. I do ten vocab cards every morning on the bus. The streak keeps me honest.
