I’m looking to learn #Japanese, and I tried Duolingo like a year ago and it didn’t really click for me so if anyone has recommendations for a good app/site/resource for learning conversational Japanese I’d love to hear about them!

(I’ve seen around the internet that the best place is to learn from a native speaker in person, but unfortunately I’m not able to do in person stuff right now. Maybe someday I’ll be able to take the course at my local community college).
