    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How to learn Japanese in Gardena, CA and what are the possibilities in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with special programs, you have a few principal opportunities for learning Japanese interactively in Gardena, CA. 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 less pricey.) Your 2nd option can be local for-profit language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in Gardena, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Gardena, CA and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive to learn Japanese and how much should Japanese tutors ask?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Japanese course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the price of about 50 lesson hours each semester. Language schools and independent Japanese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the less pricey Japanese tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, availability and popularity. Average student satisfaction 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. All classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and testing, so research all such requirements in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

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

    Formal 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 sentences, be understood when you talk, shop and place orders in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After attaining 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 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 practice. The length of time can differ quite a bit depending on your available 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 TV, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right Japanese coach?

    In learning centers, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, certainly! The largest selection of tested Japanese tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

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

    Colleges usually schedule classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools have 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.
