      Beginners are welcome! Let's have fun speaking Japanese! Let's learn Japanese the easy way! See you in the course!

      During the course I will speak Japanese, but if you do not understand I will explain it to you in English. For those who want to learn, write, read, listen and do everything together to focus on the conversation.

      Why choose Koichi S.
      "I have had the pleasure to take quite a few lessons with Koichi and would love to comment on this rather positive experience. Koichi´s lessons are always very productive and worth-while. Thanks to his flexibility we were able to create a customized lesson-pattern which takes account of my needs. We e.g. dedicated our lesson-project to the different perceptions of humour in Japan and the western world. Thanks to him I now feel a lot more secure in speaking Japanese. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend Koichi to anyone who is interested in 1st class Japanese tuition. "

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Japanese in Oamaru and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have 4 principal possibilities for learning Japanese interactively in Oamaru. 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 a little more affordable.) Your second spource can be local specialized language academies that are better priced 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 look for a private Japanese tutor in Oamaru. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Oamaru 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 by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of 45-48 course hours each semester. Language academies and individual Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable Japanese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, ratings and specialization. Customer review average for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

    📚 How much Japanese do I need to know to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared demonstrate proof of your current level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and tests, 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 extras they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese not easy and are there ways to learn it in a better way?

    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 5 hours a week you will be able to understand everyday phrases, be understood when you talk, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and fun 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 level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking 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 demand at least 600 hours of dedication. The required duration of time can differ by a lot depending on your already acquired level of Japanese or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, try typing using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in Japanese out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own Japanese coach?

    In language learning academies, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, of course! The largest selection of approved Japanese tutors with detailed profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

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

    Colleges typically offer classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically offer 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.
