    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I skill up on Japanese in East Grand Rapids, MI and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using mobile applications, you have a few main opportunities for learning Japanese interactively in East Grand Rapids, MI. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, check centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your other option can be local specialized language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in East Grand Rapids, MI. If flexibility is key, you can compare local East Grand Rapids, MI and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive to learn Japanese and what does a lesson with a tutor of Japanese cost?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Japanese course cost by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 1/2 of a hundred instruction hours each semester. Language academies and independent Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Japanese tutors can be found online, with prices on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, ratings and popularity. Real student rating average for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Japanese language skill level to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared demonstrate proof of your current level. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and tests, so research the details in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese so hard and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback 5 hours a week you will be able to understand everyday phrases, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After mastering basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Japanese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.

    🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Japanese?

    Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Japanese will take at least 600 hours of study. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your existing level of Japanese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, try typing using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If this is a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Japanese instructor?

    In language centers, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, of course! The largest selection of pre-screened Japanese tutors with full profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?

    Colleges as a rule run classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
