Japanese tutoring covers the three writing systems (Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji), conversational Japanese, GCSE and A-Level Japanese, and JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) preparation. Interest in Japanese has grown significantly, driven by anime, manga and gaming culture.
Japanese requires students to learn three writing systems simultaneously alongside entirely different sentence structures from English, progress without one-to-one guidance is significantly slower than with a structured tutoring approach.
With regular weekly tutoring, most students can reach functional conversational ability (equivalent to roughly JLPT N4) within 12–18 months. Reading and writing Hiragana and Katakana typically takes 4–6 weeks of focused practice. Kanji take significantly longer, JLPT N2 (the level many employers consider business-proficient) requires knowledge of around 1,000 characters. Your tutor will set realistic milestones based on your starting point and goals.
