My intermediate lessons
NEW!
We have released a new and improved set of Intermediate Lessons! The new lessons cover the same kanji, but with more games and exercises, and a greatly improved user interface. The lessons also cover associated grammar points. Would you like to switch to the new lessons now?
You can also check out the new lessons without switching. Your study recommendations will continue to point to the current lessons, but any work you do on the new lessons will count towards your Japanese Mastery Level.

In this graded series of lessons we will take you step-by-step through to about 1000 kanji. This lesson series is designed for students who have already mastered the basics - hiragana, katakana, and basic grammar. (If you are just beginning your studies, start with our Beginner Lessons.)
We call this the '53 stages of the Kanshudo', after the famous series of ukiyo-e by
Hiroshige.
As with the ukiyo-e series, there are actually 55 stages!
Each stage contains 18 kanji, and the full series of lessons
contains all kanji required for levels N5 to N2 of the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test),
the standard indicator of Japanese ability used by universities and employers.
Lessons 1-5 recap the first 100
kanji introduced in the Beginner Lessons, but with more complex vocabulary and grammar.
