Please Help My Poor Soul

I REALLY want to learn Japanese, but I don't know where to start. And I tend to learn things best when I have some type of mentor/"teacher" to look up to. Sadly, though, I haven't been able to find anyone- at least anyone who is willing to go the full distance with me. If anyone knows where to start or is even just willing to help me out in general please... hit me up. (=・ω・=)
If no one can do that then could you maybe just point me into the right direction so that I may teach myself?
Thanks! (=・ω・=)

Then try to write few simple kanji and it so called radicals. Dont forget kanji in japanese have onyomi (chinese reading) and kunyomi (japanese reading). At this rate you can try to watch you...... 1 reply

I currently live in japan and study japanese at a language school and we had those books in the beginning. I'm studying so i can take the JLPT N3 next year without it be...... 1 reply
