I do appreciate listening to (and watching) NHK world. The learning content is free and they have some amazing documentaries but I do have a couple of suggestions as a former student. On the topic of learning material.. I don't believe it's helpful to teach formal Japanese before covering the basics of verb conjugation to beginners of the language. After having finally mastered hiragana, katakana and some basic kanji, the average beginner is thrust back into the dark age of confusion when they discover that sentences in spoken Japanese are more likely to end in aru/iru/da/no/ne etc than arimasu/desu/imasu and so forth. Sure, there is definite value to understanding polite formal Japanese after one progresses beyond the basics of verb conjugation, but if one were actually asking for directions in Osaka and spoke in broken Japanese, they could easily be forgiven for speaking in colloquial Japanese rather than bothering to decorate their sentences (after all, it's more important to concentrate on conveying meaning than to bother with flattery). In a formal work environment, obviously this would not be the case, however most Japanese employers won't even consider hiring an employee with any less than a JPLT 2 level of understanding of the Japanese language. At this level, one has not only already mastered the basics, but they have mastered polite speech as well and so it isn't a problem. On the plus side, Japaneazy gives tourists an array of useful phrases that they can take to Japan, should they ever find themselves trying to locate a public toilet, bus stop or hospital. The online NHK skits are quite good too, but there is a tendency to become a little too reliant on romaji when it is so readily available.
