Abstract
At the International Student Center of the University of Tsukuba, we have developed a new series of grammar texts, "Practical Japanese Grammar, vol. 1 and 2," focusing on solidifying intermediate level grammar. These texts are designed to review and organize introductory level grammar while building up intermediate level grammar. Additionally, in effort to move beyond the simple attainment of grammatical knowledge, situations and model sentences are also provided to help students develop an understanding of usage situations. The results of a post-instructional survey revealed high ratings, which is suggestive that the texts provide a good match to student needs.
