      Support in Spanish (general public) and English (some) English! !! We can't wait to get to know you! !!

      The main method I use in my Japanese class is conversation. In first grade, you will often be asked what your goals are and how you would like to benefit from the class. I would also like to know what this level is (N5-N1). If desired, students can teach Japanese from textbooks.

      Why choose Akira S.
      "This is the nicest and most understanding teacher you'll have! I take his class in spanish and he has a fantastic understanding of the spanish language so it makes it a whole lot easier for him to explain grammatical structures in japanese."

      Let's learn Japanese with qualified teacher! Beginners are welcome! I understand English and a little French, too:D I hope to see you on Preply.
      Thank you

      I prefer to teach students from beginner to intermediate using "GENKI" as I think it's really helpful textbook.
      If you would like to use other materials, that would be no problem!

      Learning foreign language is not always fun, but once you get to know the language, you can understand its culture, too.

      Why choose Hitomi T.
      "Since Hitomi started teaching me (a week ago) I feel I made quite some progress and could start to fill in mi gaps in knowledge. With that, I felt more able to communicate. The lessons are fun and always go by sooo fast...! Hitomi understands very well what I have already learned and where I need more practice or information and makes sure I get that. At the same time she is making sure I don't get overwhelmed but challenges me so I will advance and learn useful things for me right now. Thank you, Hitomi-San! "

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Japanese in Palmdale, CA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using apps, you have 4 key choices for learning Japanese interactively in Palmdale, CA. 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 a little more affordable.) Your second possibility can be local for-profit 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. 4th and last, you can choose a private Japanese tutor in Palmdale, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Palmdale, CA 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 as 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the price of fifty or so course hours each semester. Language centers and private Japanese tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly Japanese tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, experience and popularity. Average student satisfaction 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 pass a few pre-requisites. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and exams, so research those in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

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

    Formal 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 everyday sentences, express yourself, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready 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 get better at speaking Japanese?

    Some people seem to 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 active use. The length of time can differ by a lot depending on your current level of Japanese or knowledge of 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 by hand and online using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible 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.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Japanese coach?

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

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

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