book report video

Here's an idea. Read a book in your target language and then give a report on it. That's what I did! I uploaded my report to Youtube.  I read a Japanese book in about 1 week.

I'm planning to take the Japanese Language Proficiency Test level one. I have only 2 more weeks left to apply for the test. I think reading is the most important thing for me to be able to pass the test. So I want to improve my reading ability. Therefor, you may see more book reports from me!

I encourage you too, to read and create a book report like I did. You can link your video to mine as a response on Youtube. Responses will be accepted automatically.  I'm doing the book reports as a way to keep track of how many books I've read and which ones.  My books will be in Japanese but the reports will be in English.

  1. Cool idea. Your book report was really funny. I might try to do one too if I can get over stage fright.

  2. Hey, thanks for the comment Thomas (bablehut.com)! But my book report was funny? I didn't even make any jokes. I was afraid my report was a little boring, but it's my first book report so I guess I can get better at it naturally. I hope you can do a book report too. I would enjoy it.

  3. This is a really great idea. I think I will try this. It would be useful for others studying for the test as well. Good idea.

  4. Great idea!
    I will try to encourage users who are learning Chinese in my website to do book report.
    Thanks.

  5. I've bought a number of Thai books with their English equivalent, but I'm too shy to do a live book report. So I'll have to come up with something else...

  6. I just finished my first "grown up" book in Japanese. Felt really good to finish it! If I have time, I'm going to try to do a book report.
