Are you still having trouble listening to them? How about other lessons? Clienadさん, Do you mean free membership access? Yes, only the first 3 blogs are available to all members (including those with free memberships), and the rest are available to Basic/Premium members only. I see that there a few blogs after the first 3 that are set to Free and not Basic, but that is accidental and will have to be fixed. Bianca Gさん,

You claim that Upper Intermediate is "almost all English". I would say that about 15% of the content is presented in English and the grammar and vocab is challenging. You seem to confuse quality for level of difficultly. Most Japanese language learners stop before or after JLPT level 2 so you have to expect that most language tools will cater for them. yeah yeah yeah san
