Folks, what day of the week will be more convenient for you to start? Please, answer all days that you would prefer. This will also give us an idea of how many people will participate.

I’ll be finishing Genki II this Sunday, and then my teacher is doing a couple of weeks of JLPT practice, but I think after that there’s a plan to start the Tobira book. I’ve already got it, I’ve half gone through the first chapter using last year’s study thread, but it’d be good for a new group to start up :slight_smile:

Do you think next week is a good time to start?

Would it be OK for us to change the dates in the lead post and using the same threads as last year?

Oh I totally missed this! I initially joined last year’s group but fell very early. I started studying again on my own recently and I almost just finished lesson 4, so this is timely. I really want to finish this textbook this time so I’m joining!

Are you guys intending to keep the same schedule/pace and main book + workbook?

Edit: next week is good for me as well as I’ve already studied the first few lessons (though I will still be joining the discussions).

Welcome aboard the 2021 Tobira study group :hugs: It’s my understanding that we will follow the same pace as the original thread (2 weeks per chapter) and that we will work through both the main book and workbook (although if you only have the main book or only want to work through that one that’s of course fine as well). @sergiop please correct me if I’m wrong or missed something.

I’m in. I’ve been wanting to do Tobira but textbooks are boring to do alone. Let’s do this team!

@Mods the Tobira study group threads close after 1 year. Would it be possible to change them so they close after 2 or 3 years instead? If not then the threads will be closed before we get to them with the new study group (or we have to bump them up to keep them open).

Because we can’t extend the date of closure (1 year after the last comment), we recommend bumping it before then, or else just asking us to reopen a post if it has closed by then.

Ok, we’ll do that then. Thank you!

It looks great! Thanks for the help but it seems I cannot edit the head post. I assumed that the pencil icon would allow me to do it but it only shows the previous edits. I will see if there is a way of being able to change this.

There is a way :slight_smile: It goes like this:

@Mods Could you please turn this thread‘s OP into a wiki so that sergiop can edit it? Thanks!
