IntermediatePaidInvolvedTextbookPrint
Good fit if
- Learners who finished Genki
- Classes assigned Quartet
- People who want readings plus grammar in one series
Look elsewhere if
- Beginner books are unfinished
- Your class already uses Tobira
- You wanted an app course
Quartet is an intermediate Japanese series. Many programs use it after Genki.
Who it fits
It fits classes and self-studiers who finished a beginner book and will do chapter work.
Limits
Tobira occupies the same slot. Pick the book your tutor already knows. Jumping early wastes money.
