Hi! My name is Loretta, a girl from the U.S. who moved to Japan! I'm here on the MEXT scholarship program as a graduate student, studying to get a Masters in Business Administration. Here are some answers to common questions:
1. Do I Speak Japanese? Yep! I was taught formally in High School and have been speaking now for over 15 years.
2. What are you studying? I'm a recent grad of Yokohama National University's "Masters of Business Administration" Program
3. How old are you?: Year of the dragon. :D The math is up to you.
4. How did you get into Japanese school?: tinyurl.com/yb8yylch
5. What camera equipment do you use?: I film my videos with a Canon 60D using a 30mm Sigma Art Lens and I edit with Sony Vegas Pro 10 (with some help from photoshop). Additional cameras include GoPro Hero 7 Black and DJI Majic Air 
Хобби
So I took Loretta's advice for the reading section and my score for the reading section improved by 10 points on a practice test after only a week of practice. Just saying it worked for me.
Sorry I blew up your spot for the video 😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
Also, is anyone else listening to the listening practice stuff and saying “1から4の中から最も良いものを一つ選んでください” along with it? 😂 I swear, I’m gonna start hearing that in my dreams.
"天気がいいから散歩しましょう。"I bet you've heard that a lot. 😂
I read your comment to Boomer and he snortled😂
That and "男の人は女の人が話しています。女の人は何をしますか。" LOL
KemushiChan ロレッタ 😂
Good luck to Boomer! 😊
Thanks for the nightmare material.
Loretta: GO TO SLEEP! No more all-nighters

How did you do?

Hey there! Small world. :3

I'll join
One thing I would say is failing is not the end of the world. The first timr I took jlpt was n4, I skipped level 5 and I didn't even study for n4. I failed by 9 points which to me wasn't bad for not studying and not knowing the format since it was my first time taking it. But even before I got the test results which is a while, I had the feeling that I didn't do so great. I went out and bought the jlpt n3 grammar book right after and studied the whole book within a month during my winter break. To make a long story short, taking the test regardless of passing or not served as a source of motivation for me to study hard, and it let me know where I stood with my Japanese
Been dying to hear loretta japanese
Someone take away my coffee 😂
@@kemushichan ありがとうございます! わたしの JLPTまで ８ 日 あります。I really needed this piece of advice. I'm from 花日本語学校 and I am an N5 level student. I'm sharing this to my class's messenger group. Love From Bangladesh. 🇧🇩💕😘💕 You're Beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍
This is the motivational speech I didn’t know I needed. You’re a hero 🙂
Taking N3 in 8 days. 🤪🤪🤪
Youuu cann DO IT!!!
Did you pass the N3 test? I want to know really bad!
@@advancedstudy0 I did pass! By exactly 1 point rofl
@@FlamingGuppy Awesome! It doesn't matter if it's by one point, what matters is the hard work you put on to get that one extra point.
This is the best JLPT advice out there. Thank you.
I never clicked so fast. I was just studying for the N2 😂
Great tips btw! Thank you for the vid ^^
I'm glad you liked it!! Now everyone GET BACK TO STUDYING
Literally same
1. Study
2. Study
3. Study
Phew. I think I've got all three
I'm taking the N4 this year and got 85% on a practice even though there's a lot I don't know. A tip I have for the reading sections is to read for the questions before reading the text so you know what you're looking for. This really helped me during my last practice test, I used to read the questions after the text since that's how it's structured but when I did that I forgot most of the information by the time I got to the end.
YES, WE NEED THIS! ありがとうございます！
Thank you Loretta !
頑張ります！
totally agree with every point that you mentioned here, thanks Loretta
I'm excited to do the JLPT! It'll be my first time and starting at N4 level end of this year. Thank you for this motivation girl! ❤️
ありがとうございます。皆なされ頑張りましょう！Si se puede!!!
As always, thank you so much for the helpful information! 皆さん、頑張ってくださいね！
YOUR TIPS ARE SO CLEAR! THANK YOU❤️
I passed my N1 :D Thank you for your advices ^^
This is the video that I've been looking for.😍 Thank you🙂
Thank you so much.. This video flares the confidence in side me. Thank you once again for taking time for us....
So timely!!!! Thank you for sharing~
Currently studying for the N3 and I did a practice test last weekend (and I set a timer!). I found that there is really a ton of time to finish all the problems. The listening test format is indeed something you need to get used to, but there is plenty of time to answer questions. For reading it definitely is smart to read the questions before reading the text, but for quick readers there is no real need to skip over half the sentences, just don't get stuck on that one word you don't know.
This is just my experience from doing one practice test of course and I probably doesn't apply to other levels than the N3. Good luck studying everyone, I hope we all pass!
thank you for this encouraging video loretta-chan🤧😘💖
I will apply this for next year. Thank you so much!!
I swear Loretta is the only RUclipsr who gives serious, thoughtful advice about the process of learning Japanese. All the other channels are like "You don't have to use any books, just talk to natives. Oh and use italki, btw here is my code"! Don't get me wrong, I love italki, but you can see that Loretta has so much more experience when it comes to active and consious studying compering to other people on the platform. Thank you for being so awesome and for believing in us
Omg thanks for that video I needed it so much since I'm taking n3 this Sunday!
Thank you so much for doing this video!!!
Thank you so much for the tips, especially on the "dreaded" reading portion! Will be taking the N1 test in the next 2 weeks!
I am fan of her, the way she explains osm . She told those word which is really important.thanks
Doumo, Kemushi-chan! The tips are very warm and thoughtful. It was like you were about to come out of the screen and hug us all. 😊 It's going to be my 2nd take for N2 on Dec. 1st, and i kind of sucked at reading so I'm with you on the polishing of our skim reading skill. 😅 Anyway thank you so much! Have a good one today!
Thank you very mutch! I lost my hope but you give me back!❤️
I'll be taking the N3! I wish everyone good luck on taking whatever level your taking!
I love it! Very straight forward 😊
Thanks so much for this video!! Will be using in November when I'm scrambling to prepare for the n2
love the advice, sleep is always important!!!
While studying Japanese, since the beginning, I almost never review at home but was still able to get decent marks on our practice tests. And I studied for about a month and a half. My Japanese teacher's advice was to actully just "memorize, forget, memorize, forget" vocabs and kanji but always practice reading fast. Along with practicing to write hiragana and katakana everyday in less than a minute so we'll be able to remember even the characters that we previously rarely encounter or use. He also repeatedly told us not to think too much when reading nor writing. If you forget then look it up. And keep forgetting until it sticks to you. Also, reading while listening to a certain passage or sentence helps a lot too. We've also built a habit of focusing on the questions first. Then what is it about or who are the characters involved in the question or is about. Then, pick up things/vocabs we recognize that would fit to the situation or question best instead of understanding everything. That goes with listening as well. And all these were very useful to me and for my peers. So hope it is for you too. If you wanted to try this method. Lol. Anyways, best of luck to you people who'll be taking N5-N1!
Thanks for these pieces of advice Loretta-san. Hoping to nail N2 this December.
I watched your video before my JLPT N1 exam in December and I passed. Thank you for the advice RE: the listening section!
thank you so much!!! it was really helpful
I'm someone who self studied the whole way and I'm taking N2 next week.... and freaking out because balancing high school on top of JLPT is really damn hard ;;
thank you so much for your advice though, Loretta! I really needed it! Your japanese is amazing and you're definitely a true inspiration for me ^^
Im so impressed!!! Sounds like you have a lot more will power than me 😂❤️.
I hope your course load isnt too much and it all goes smoothly! Go Leila!!!
Idk what is it about you but just watching you talk calmed me down, thankyou and I am going to try these tips rn
I really felt like you were talking to me at the end of this video, the ending was so sweet I felt so motivated haha. Thank you~
I'll be taking the N5 for the first time and I'm still way behind where I should be. Whether I pass or fail I'm excited for the motivation it'll give me to keep going forward in learning Japanese!
Thank you, your advice actually prepared me for JLPT N5 last December! 😊
I'm so happy that for the first time I do understand what you were saying!!!
Thanks for the study tips. Some I think are useful even for N4 and N5. Now time to practice reading and listening.
Thanks for the video!! These tips are usefull) Especially "stop study new things" x) *went to do listening practice*
Thanks for the reading tip! I barely passed a practice test at my local Japanese class, and I remember the reading section being much more difficult than doing them at home.
taking n5 soon as a self-taught student!! listening is freaking me out a bit but good luck everyone!
Same!
Same
literally same here
Jade T same.
Good luck today!!!
I gotta refresh my Japanese ability when I get out to Tokyo next month! Not many opportunities to speak Japanese in North Carolina lol!
I liked how you mentioned in an early video about taking the JLPT consecutively. I realized after signing up for the N5 that there was still a lot of little things that I thought I already knew. I can't wait to take my first JLPT. :D
I don’t even know gah I’m so stressed that I can’t feel stress rn
I still have hundreds of vocab to learn but I’ll definitely take all these tips and use them!! Especially that reading one...
Thanks for the vid!!
Derps0uls don’t worry. If you fail you can just take it again after you’ve improved more :) good luck to you
Thank you so much for your advice!! This December will be my second time taking N3 level. Hopefully, I will pass this time.
I failed my N2 in 2018 by 8 points on the reading section, i will definitely listen to your advices for the next time! (I will try it again in 2021)
👏 yo you definitely got it. Im totally inspired now foreal. Fluency is the dream miss. 👏👏👏
Thank you so so much for the tips.
l love you, Ladyy ! Thank youuu so muchh :3
My friend is taking N1 so I'm gonna share this video to her :)
Thank you!!
These are such good tips - especially the listening plus sign!!
I only realized now that a tic tac toe is the wrong shape, haha, but yes PLUS SIGN
New sub🥰 you’re so great. Planning to take N3
Thanks a lot. You're a hero!
I would like to thank you. The night before I took the JNAT N3 I came across your video and it really help me on the reading part.
I really cried when I got the results. Thank you so much. ❤ どもありがとうございます。
Thank you thank you thank you. I will take the N4 exam and I wanna cry. But this was comforting. Gambarimashou, minasan.
Wholeheartedly agree on your study tips. This is useful even for JLPT N5 level. I took the N5 which was the easiest and most basic and studied normally instead of studying exam style. I barely finished the grammar/reading section portion of the exam on time and didn't as well as I thought in the listening because I was doing everything so slowly that the cd went ahead a few times while I was deciding my answer, urgh. So it's very important to use the last 2 weeks to train up speed and accuracy. Good luck everyone on your exams!
The passage tip is really useful.
🔥🔥Am definitely going to implement ‘Blitzkreig Benkyou’, and see if I can get that to be come a catch phrase in the UK. Thanks for another awesome video. Especially the tips on speed reading.
Great tips, Loretta!!! Unfortunately, I was so busy studying in the lead up that I didnt check youtube and see your vid in time OTL笑 I maybe passed the N3, but the reading section really did do me in. If I have to take it again, or if I pass and go up to N2, am defo gonna follow your reading strategy. No time for slow and steady with 読解, my dudes
I took N3 last summer, failed the reading section but passed overall. Planning to take N2 this summer but the idea of doing JLPT again is scaring me a little.
Anyway, good luck to all of you taking it in December. You'll smash it!
I’m taking the N5 I’m excited to start this journey to becoming fluent
very helpful, thank you very much 😊
I’m still watching the ads but I already know that I needed this video
I love you! You're just in time with this advice! Im stressing over N3 right now T_T
Youuu cann doooo itttttt
Noni Park 私も。
Super helpful, thank you! Glad to see you in my sub feed again :) Love your videos!
Im so glad I still made it into the subfeed! The algorithm is giving me the silent treatment after not uploading for so long
This was actually really helpful, all these other RUclipsrs gave me some serious anxiety, but you felt like hope, haha 😂, Thanks for this, subscribed 👍🏻❤️
It's so relaxing to study japanese just because, without thinking about the JLPT!
Thank you for reminding me of the watch!!!!
Here again. Passed N4 and tomorrow I'm taking the N3! Wish me luck
Watching this before my Jlpt exam tomorrow🥺🥺🥺 thank you for the tips
I’m taking the N3, and it’ll be the first time I’ve ever taken it! I wish for the best for everybody taking it this December
Thank you for the video! I’m taking N3 next week and it’s my first time ever to attend JLPT. I’m both nervous and excited, but also have some mental preparations in case I fail on the first try. XD Just have to try again later if it doesn’t work out now.
Got the JLPT N3 today and I'm really grateful for the advice... especially the Reading Comprehension one! Remember doing the same thing for the SAT exam 😂
thankyou for the tips mam.
Wow i always viewed your tips and advice to jlpt takers.Thank you.
I'm taking the n3 in Paris now. So stressed huhuhu. Good luck everyone
oh, i forgot that i posted this comment. I passed the n3, I'm in japan since April and I will take the N2 in Osaka this December !!!
勉強がんばってね。
These are so great
Thank you!!!!
I love your advice, really helped and cheered me up! I'm going to sit for N1 next week, so please wish me luck!
GOOD LUCKKK
YOU GOT THIS ( ﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉｼ
Great. This is the first time I’ve seen your video.
Welcome to this little boomwormy corner of RUclips!
Thank you very much!❤
I'll be taking N5!! Wish me luck! 😅 ありがとう for the tips! 😊
I forgot everything I learned. N3 passer but none remained.
Thank you for this! The first time I took the JLPT a couple years ago, I failed it by a few points because of this. Like even though I studied and everything, in the real test everything moved along so much faster, and it was easy to run out of time on things.
I’m retaking the N3 this year, and I’ve been trying to take practice tests and listen to listening tests, and just trying to do it all a bit faster. Still super nervous as the date approaches, but feeling a bit more confident as the days go on.
Thank you, as always, for another great video with great tips! 😊
Good luck on the N3!!!!
KemushiChan ロレッタ Thank youuuu! ❤️
Thank you for this! I'm panicking over the jlpt that's coming up in two weeks!
Thank you for these tips! I will apply that blitzkreig method on the Reading section. I've been struggling a lot on how to get a good score especially the Reading section (N2) which is very difficult for me with a limited time during my mock practices. I hope it works well on me this exam next week. 😭
I don't know if you already know that but you are awesome. :)
thank you so much
Ok.. I trust your Advices. I Belive your advices. Wish me Luck.
Heading On Sunday for the N3.
