    I teach natural Japanese. Children can also take my class. We use GENKI textbooks, but students don't need Genki textbooks. Because I only refer to vocabulary and grammar. In many cases, we don't use Genki textbooks in class.

    I want to like teaching Japanese to the students.

    I use a whiteboard and Google Pictures in lessons.

I've already completed five classes with Yudai, and I intend to continue learning from him. His emphasis on pronunciation and pitch accent sets him apart from other Japanese teachers, making it a unique and valuable aspect of his lessons.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

Besides self-study with apps, you have 4 main opportunities for learning Japanese interactively in Nagoya. 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 option can be local private 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. Last, you can opt for a private Japanese tutor in Nagoya. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Nagoya and online Japanese tutors.

🎟 How expensive is it 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 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 1/2 of a hundred lesson hours each semester. Language academies and private Japanese tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with individual 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 hometown, availability and student demand. Average reviews 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 to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and exams, so research each program in advance. With personal Japanese tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

🔥 Why is Japanese so hard and are there ways to learn it in a better way?

Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. Realistically, 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, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and fun 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 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 demand at least 600 hours of dedication. The actual range of time can differ by a lot depending on your existing level of Japanese or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea 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 it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

🤳 Can I choose my own Japanese coach?

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

🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

Colleges offer classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools give 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.
