Do beginner/intermediate learners want story-based Japanese materials?
Hello, this is my first post here.
I write level-based everyday Japanese stories for Japanese learners.
I’m thinking about creating learning materials where learners around the N5–N3 level can enjoy natural Japanese stories while also practicing listening.
The stories are written by a native Japanese speaker (not AI-generated), and the narration is also done by a native speaker. I also include both Japanese and English subtitles to help learners follow along more comfortably.
I’d like to make the stories into a series so that, as learners continue reading, they can naturally pick up vocabulary, common daily phrases, and Japanese onomatopoeia.
Do you think there is a demand for this kind of material?
Also, what kinds of learning materials helped you the most when you were a beginner?
