      Let's learn Japanese with qualified teacher! Beginners are welcome! I understand English and a little French, too:D Learning foreign language is not always fun, but once you get to know the language, you can understand its culture, too.

      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!

      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! "

    I appreciate Rizuni's teaching style. His style of teaching allows the student to do the majority of the speaking, which is ideal for me as I want to improve my speaking skills. Further, he diligently corrects my mistakes, which I find very helpful to improve my grammar.

    Ryo is a very knowledgeable teacher and respectful and we speak of various topics such as art and culture and Japanese society. I am at the intermediate level, so he challenges me to expand my vocabulary, and further, he easily explains concepts well in English.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How to learn Japanese in Scarborough and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with apps, you have a few main opportunities for learning Japanese interactively in Scarborough. 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 less pricey.) Your 2nd option can be local specialized language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in Scarborough. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Scarborough 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 overall charge for 45-48 class hours each semester. Language academies and independent Japanese tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the less pricey Japanese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, availability and languages the tutor can teach in. Customer review 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. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and graded tasks, so research each program 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 students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Japanese so challenging and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. According to experts, 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 sentences, speak on some level, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and easy 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 level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Japanese?

    Some people brag about their 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 amount of time can differ by a lot depending on your available level of Japanese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, try typing using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try more 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, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, certainly! The largest selection of approved Japanese tutors with video profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges typically run classes two times weekly over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically make available 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.
