Frequently asked questions

Chances are at this stage you still have questions. These are some of the common questions we receive from people who want to learn Japanese with us.

Do I need to know any Japanese to get started?

Not at all. Our native Japanese teachers can swiftly introduce you to the basics of the Japanese language even if you have never studied Japanese before. Moreover, as a student you will get free access to our pre-recorded video lessons, which allow you to start learning before the lessons start.

Will I learn with a native Japanese teacher?

Yes! All our Japanese teachers are native and fully certified as professional Japanese teachers. This sets us apart from other learning websites where teachers may be native but have not received official training for teaching the language.

How do I book a trial lesson?

Explore our list of available Japanese native teachers. Select your preferred teacher based in its profile and availability. Then book a free trial lesson in its calendar.

How can I continue learning with my teacher after the trial lesson?

Secure your weekly lessons with your preferred Japanese teacher by selecting the "Purchase Lessons Package" in the teacher's profile with a simple debit or credit card payment in your local currency.

What can I expect upon enrolling as a student?

Once you have secured your lessons by completing your payment, within 24 hours, we will send you an enrollment confirmation email along with access to our Japanese video courses and vocabulary flashcards. Also, we will send you an invitation via Google Calendar to join the weekly live lessons via Zoom.

How many hours a week do I need to dedicate to learning Japanese?

In addition to your weekly live lesson(s), we recommend you to dedicate at least an extra 90 minutes a week to study on your own. We provide you as a student with vocabulary flashcards and video lessons to review what you learned during the live lessons with your teacher.

Are there any additional costs, such as for books and other materials?

Not at all. We provide you with exclusive Japanese learning material created by Japademy. As a student, you don't need to purchase any books nor pay for the materials we provide you with.

Is there an age requirement to join the lessons?

Our Japanese online lessons are developed for learners who are 14 years old or older. For younger learners, we recommend exploring alternative learning options specifically designed for that age group.

What if I am not satisfied with my teacher?

You can have a free trial lesson which gives you the opportunity to meet your teacher with no commitment. If you are not satisfied with your teacher, we can allocate your to a different one more suitable to your learning needs.
