Читать книгу Speak Japanese Today - Taeko Kamiya - Страница 5

Acknowledgments

I am deeply indebted to the late Professor Roy Smith of Kobe University, Father Edward J. Kowrach and the Sisters of Holy Names for their help and guidance given to me many years ago. Their high standards and ideals not only have long been an inspiration to me, it also gave me the courage to undertake this project.

I am also grateful to the students of Japanese, present and past, at the Defense Language Institute. It has been their enthusiasm that has provided me with the stimulus to pursue better teaching methods over the years.

Last but not least, I wish to express my appreciation to Tuttle Publishing Company for making this publication possible.
