    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How to learn Japanese in Long Island City, NY and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have a few key possibilities for learning Japanese interactively in Long Island City, NY. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your other spource can be local for-profit language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can look for a private Japanese tutor in Long Island City, NY. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Long Island City, NY and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive to learn Japanese and what are the ballpark lesson costs for Japanese tutors?

    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 price of fifty or so instruction hours each semester. Language centers and private Japanese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Japanese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, positive reviews and popularity. Customer review 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. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and graded tasks, 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 teaching children or teens, etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese so hard and are there ways to learn it the easy way?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. Realistically, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand most words, speak on some level, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Japanese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced students.

    🤷 How long does it take to learn Japanese?

    Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Japanese will require at least 600 hours of dedication. The amount of time can differ quite a bit depending on your available level of Japanese or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, write by hand and online using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 Can I choose my own Japanese instructor?

    In learning centers, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of approved Japanese tutors with full profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges schedule classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
