    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my Japanese in Ashburton and what are the possibilities in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have several main options for learning Japanese interactively in Ashburton. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, research centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your second possibility can be local commercial language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can look for a private Japanese tutor in Ashburton. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Ashburton and online Japanese tutors.

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

    For university and college courses you can estimate Japanese course cost as 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for about 50 course hours each semester. Language schools and independent Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the less pricey Japanese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor hometown, ratings and student demand. Real student rating average for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of Japanese do I need 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 read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese so difficult and are there ways to learn it more effectively?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. In reality, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand most expressions, be understood when you talk, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and enjoyable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Japanese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.

    🤷 How long does it take to learn Japanese?

    Some people just have a 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 significantly depending on your current level of Japanese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Japanese coach?

    In language learning academies, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, certainly! The largest selection of pre-screened Japanese tutors with full profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

    Colleges typically structure classes two times weekly over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically offer shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
