      I teach natural Japanese. Children can also take my class. I want to like teaching Japanese to the students.

      Many students want to speak Japanese skilling not reading Japanese skilling. So I teach actual Japanese sentences and natural Japanese sentences.

      I try to make the classes as interesting as possible.

      Why choose Kentaro S.
      "So far I have had 5 lessons, which has started with the alphabet, numbers and time. Kentaro S is very organised and teaches in a methodical way - which suits me. We also practice speaking Japanese at every lesson - going through pronunication. Kentaro S is very patient and helps me with each syllable to then say the whole word. "

    Haru is a really good teacher. An hour passes in an instant because the motto is "Enjoying anyway" and the class is fun. They teach you Japanese properly using various methods, whether it's writing or words used in real life. If possible, I recommend taking Mr. Haru's class.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Japanese in Raleigh, NC and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have several key choices for learning Japanese interactively in Raleigh, NC. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your other spource can be local commercial language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in Raleigh, NC. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Raleigh, NC and online Japanese tutors.

    🎟 Is it cheap to learn Japanese and what does a lesson with a tutor of Japanese cost?

    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 overall charge for about 50 class hours each semester. Language centers and individual Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private 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. Average student satisfaction 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 prove your profeciency level. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and exams, so research those in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other add-ons they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese so challenging 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. 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 expressions, speak on some level, socialize in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and affordable 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 students.

    🤷 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 necessitate at least 600 hours of dedication. The length of time can differ a lot depending on your existing level of Japanese or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, try to communicate with 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 tutor?

    In language centers, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of verified Japanese tutors with video profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges structure classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can choose your own lesson frequency and time, on weekdays and/or weekends.
