Do you want to communicate in Japanese, but are not sure how to do it? Finding a Japanese-speaking friend is not an easy task. However, online, you can quickly find your ideal Japanese conversation partner. In this article, we will explore the world of online language exchange. Let's harness the power of language exchange to improve your Japanese language skills and cultural understanding. By the end of the article, you will be on your way to finding your ideal Japanese conversation partner. Exploring the World of Online Language Exchange Expand your horizon. You may be wondering, "What is a language exchange?" First, we will summarize what a language exchange is. Next, we will explain how to establish a connection with a Japanese conversation partner. - Basics of Language Exchange- Establishing a Connection with a Japanese Conversation Partner Let's take a closer look! Basics of Language Exchange What is the basics of language exchange? First, we will explain the basics of language exchange. A language exchange is a way for participants who speak different languages to improve their communication skills by teaching each other's language. Participants alternate the roles of speaker and listener to facilitate the conversation. For example, a Japanese learner and an English learner are paired up and speak in Japanese at first, then switch to English in the middle of the conversation. The benefits of this language exchange are the improvement of practical communication skills and cross-cultural exchange. The use of an online platform also offers the convenience of participation beyond geographical constraints. Thus, language exchange is an effective learning tool that allows participants to learn each other's language and improve their skills through real-life conversational experiences. Establishing a connection with a Japanese conversation partner Next, we will tell you how to establish a connection with a Japanese conversation partner. One of the best ways to find and connect with Japanese conversation partners online is through language exchange communities and learning platforms. And to facilitate effective conversations, it is important to use the language evenly, set clear goals, and accept feedback. If you continue to speak only one language, it will be difficult to learn the other. If you have a conversation without clear goals, you won't know what point to give feedback. Let's use online platforms and apps when interacting. We recommend using the messaging function to make contact while enhancing your profile and creating a sense of trust. Additionally, it is important to coordinate your schedule and set aside regular conversation time. You can utilize these methods to find an online Japanese conversation partner and ensure effective conversation opportunities. Making the Most of Language Exchange Events Are you interested in a language exchange event? If you are interested in participating in a language exchange event, what should you do next? Then, you may be wondering how you can make the most of it. From here, we will share tips and strategies on how to get the most out of your language exchange event. - How to Prepare for a Language Exchange Event- Optimal Learning Strategies for Language Exchange Events Let's take a look at them in order. How to Prepare for a Language Exchange Event First, we will discuss how to prepare for a language exchange event. Here is a brief summary of the preparations and precautions that should be taken before the event. Before the language exchange event, check and prepare for the theme, introduce yourself, and think about your interests. First, you want to practice your self-introduction repeatedly. Then, etiquette and codes of conduct in conversation include listening carefully to the other person, being respectful, and providing appropriate feedback. In setting expectations and goals, it is important to enjoy your own goals and growth, and to emphasize the process of learning over perfection. By approaching the event with these preparations and considerations in mind, you can ensure a fulfilling learning experience. Optimal Learning Strategies for Language Exchange Events Next, we will summarize strategies and techniques for learning effectively through language exchange events. First, in setting up an effective learning strategy, it is important to find a method that fits your learning style and goals. Topics of interest, goal setting, and active participation are essential to maintaining motivation. It goes without saying that planning and continuity are important for achieving long-term learning goals, right? For planning and continuity, setting specific goals and recording progress are helpful. Even if it seems tedious, you will feel your growth later if you keep even a small record. Make sure to combine these strategies and techniques to make the most of your language exchange events and make your Japanese study more efficient.

Next, we will show you how to optimize your online Japanese learning experience. - The Benefits of Learning Together- How to create an effective online learning environment Let's take a closer look at these two points! Advantages of studying together First, we will summarize the advantages of studying with an online Japanese conversation partner. First, since you will receive real-time feedback and instruction, you will have the advantage of being able to make corrections on the spot and learn a wide range of expressions. Those who have learned Japanese through anime and manga may be especially interested in whether the phrases are actually used in daily conversation. If you want to use the phrases you want to use, try to use them more and more in your conversations. In addition, you will have the opportunity for cross-cultural understanding and exchange, which will help you gain a broader perspective as well as language learning. If you gain knowledge about Japanese culture, many of the things you learn are more convincing and memorable than learning only the language. Additionally, it helps to improve self-expression and communication skills. Since speaking in a foreign language involves the use of more non-verbal communication, you will be able to express yourself more. Thus, learning online is flexible and convenient and allows you to develop your language skills through practical conversations. Enjoy actively communicating with others and experience growth. How to create an effective online learning environment Finally, we have compiled a list of strategies for creating an effective online learning environment and optimizing the learning experience.

As you progress, focus on developing your skills, paying attention to the balance between independent study and partner sessions. To be more efficient, you can use a schedule or timer to set aside time for study and keep up with your own pace.

When you want to learn Japanese, the first thing you may encounter is the alphabet. In this article, we will show you how to learn the Japanese alphabet effectively. Starting with the basics of hiragana and katakana, we will explain in detail, including memory techniques and practical application. Read to the end and you will be able to enjoy learning the Japanese alphabet! What is the Japanese alphabet? Let's learn the basics of hiragana and katakana! (How to learn alphabet in Japanese) How to learn alphabet in Japanese First of all, we will explain the basics of the Japanese alphabet. The Japanese alphabet includes hiragana and katakana. Both share the fact that they are derived from Kanji characters, but while hiragana is a broken down form of Kanji, katakana is a character made from a part of Kanji. Characteristically, one sound is fixed to one character. Hiragana and katakana exist as 50 sounds each, corresponding one to one. For example, "a'' in hiragana and "a" in katakana have the same sound. Some of the characters have a dotted or circled sound that becomes a muddled or semi-muddled sound. The difference between hiragana and katakana is that hiragana is the basis of the Japanese language, while katakana is often used for foreign words. In terms of the order of study, hiragana will come first. From here, hiragana and katakana will be explained respectively. Characteristics and basics of hiragana ( Japanese hiragana and katakana guide) Elementary school education Let us explain the characteristics and basics of hiragana. Hiragana is one of the characters used to write the Japanese language. Originally, men such as aristocrats and priests used katakana to write kanji in shorthand, but in the Heian period (794-1185), women and the general public began to write characters as well, and simple characters were needed. Therefore, hiragana developed from a broken form of kanji. Today, hiragana is mainly used in elementary school education and in books for children, and is also utilized along with kanji in daily life. As for the writing style, when writing with a brush, it is expressed in three movements: dots, horizontally, and vertically. However, with the spread of keyboard input, there is a trend where the correct stroke order, stop (tome), upward brushstroke (hane), and sweeping (harai) are becoming less important. Features and basics of katakana (Japanese hiragana and katakana guide) What are the characteristics and basics of katakana? On the other hand, what are the characteristics and basics of katakana? Katakana has its origins in an ancient Japanese writing system called Manyogana. In the Middle Ages, a mixed writing system of kanji and kana became the mainstream, and a system similar to the modern one was established in the Meiji era.  Katakana is mainly used to write foreign words, technical terms in science and technology, and product names. It is also sometimes used to express words without kanji characters to enhance readability.  All writing styles consist of straight lines and angular curves, and like hiragana, the order and direction of lines is important. However, the writing area is narrower than that of hiragana, and the characters are thinner toward the tips.

In this article, we will show you how to learn Japanese online and help you find the right course for you. We have compiled a list of recommended online Japanese courses, how to choose an online Japanese course, and effective ways to learn Japanese online. Read to the end and you will find the online Japanese language course that is right for you! Recommended online Japanese course First, we will introduce some popular online Japanese language courses and explain the features and ratings of each. Japanese language courses for beginners Japanese language courses for intermediate and advanced students Let's look at these two categories. Japanese courses for beginners online We will introduce online Japanese courses suitable for beginners and suggest effective learning methods. The timing of your first exposure to Japanese is when you are most likely to fall behind. To prevent this, first check the quality of the course materials and content. If a trial lesson is available, we recommend that you take it. Also  the support system and communication method are important. Please check to see if they can answer questions via Zoom, if they only use email or chat, and if you can receive real-time support during your own study time. And it's also important to find out if the cost and learning period are in line with your budget and learning goals. Take time to think about when and at what level you would like to be by. Japanese language courses for intermediate and advanced students This section introduces online Japanese courses suitable for intermediate and advanced learners, and explains how to study and proceed. Once you reach the intermediate or advanced level, you will probably have a better idea of your strengths and weaknesses. If you have skills that you particularly focus on, we recommend courses to strengthen your speaking and listening skills. Also, if you are aiming for a job or higher education using Japanese, it would be a good idea to take a course to learn business Japanese or specialized vocabulary to improve your efficiency. Those who want to enjoy Japanese culture more like a hobby may want to take a course to learn about culture and history. How to choose an online Japanese language course Next, we will introduce some points to consider when choosing an online Japanese language course. Choose a course that meets your goals and objectives Check course evaluations and reviews Check the support system of the online Japanese language course Let's check these three points. Choose a course that meets your goals and objectives The first point to consider is whether you want to focus on conversation skills or reading and writing. The second is whether you want to learn Japanese for work or pleasure, or for everyday conversation. It depends on whether you want to learn specialized vocabulary or vocabulary that is closely related to your daily life. Finally, whether you will study for a short period of time or for a long period of time. This should be considered in conjunction with the level you are aiming for. Check course evaluations and reviews Here are some ways to check ratings and reviews to help you choose a course. First, the easiest place to look is online review and evaluation sites. The advantage is that they are written by an unspecified number of people, so the population is large, but the disadvantage is that you cannot expect much credibility. A little more reliable are reviews on social networking sites and forums. At this time, we recommend looking at personal accounts, which are usually updated frequently. And if you are surrounded by people who are learning Japanese, it is a good idea to get introductions from acquaintances or friends. You can ask them for more details about what they are interested in, so you can gather more information. Check the support system of the online Japanese language course Here are some points to consider when choosing an online Japanese language course with a good support system. First, check if the environment is conducive to asking questions and asking for advice. We recommend courses that have a homeroom teacher system, a buddy system, or a system that allows students to ask questions and seek advice. Another indicator is whether there is an active online community or group activities. If there is a community of learners, you can share learning tips. And you should also look at the level of customer support and follow-up services. Online courses often have systemic problems, so it is important that there is a system in place that can be consulted immediately. Effective ways to learn Japanese online Here are some effective learning methods and habits for studying Japanese online. Get into the habit of practicing on a daily basis Find a learning method that works for you Maintain motivation for learning We will focus on these three points. Establish a daily practice habit First, We would like to suggest a daily practice habit that is effective for learning Japanese. You can either devote your study time to your commute to work or school, or you can set a reminder to set aside some time. It is also effective to use smartphone apps and websites. Why not replace the time you spend on your phone or computer with study time? Keep your study apps and websites on your computer desktop and in a prominent place on your phone's home screen. Moreover, joining a language exchange partner or study group is also a great idea. The advantage of joining these activities is that if you book ahead of time, you can ensure that you will have time to study during that time. Finding the right learning method for you Here are some tips for finding the right fit among the various learning methods. First, spend some time clarifying whether your learning goal is to focus on listening and speaking or reading and writing. If reading books is not your thing, you may find it easier to study by using online materials or videos. For example, videos allow you to study while doing housework. Also, if you prefer to focus on interaction, communicate via chat or email. If you communicate in Japanese, you will feel a sense of accomplishment when you get your message across. How to maintain motivation for learning Here are some ways to stay motivated when learning Japanese online. The most effective way is to set a learning goal or deadline. By clarifying what you want to become and setting a deadline, it will be easier to make a plan. It is also important to keep track of the progress of the plan you have made and check your achievements. Please take time to look back and visualize your growth. If you are not comfortable studying at a desk, try taking time to enjoy learning by experiencing Japanese culture, dramas, and movies. You will find that Japanese is interesting and you will be motivated to learn more!  To learn Japanese online, it is important to choose a course that suits you and to adopt an effective learning method.

If you want to learn Japanese, where should you start? In this article, we will introduce the basics of learning Japanese for beginners and recommended resources, perfect for you if you are a fan of anime and manga. Read to the end and you will know how to enjoy learning Japanese! Acquire basic knowledge of Japanese language learning This section explains the basic knowledge you need to know before you start learning Japanese. We will introduce two of them here. Types of characters and how to read them Understanding basic grammar Let's take a look at these two essential points for beginners of Japanese! Types of Characters and How to Read Them Japanese is written in hiragana, katakana, and kanji. We will explain the differences between each and the basics of how to read them. Hiragana is the basic character for the Japanese language. Hiragana is also the first character to be studied when learning Japanese. The basic way to read it is to pronounce it with consonants as well as vowels. The same is true for katakana in terms of reading, but it is often used for foreign words. It's much easier to read than if everything were written in hiragana. And the key point of kanji is that the characters themselves represent a specific meaning, and the meaning can be recognized at a glance. Although it is based on Chinese, it has evolved uniquely in Japan. There are often multiple readings, but it is easier to guess the meaning and reading if you learn the "radical," which is a component of kanji. Understanding Basic Grammar This section provides a brief explanation of important Japanese grammar points for beginners. The structure of Japanese sentences is SOV-type. English is SVO-type, which may seem a little confusing until you get used to it. A particle is attached to the end of a word to supplement the meaning or connect words. It is also important to note that verbs and adjectives change form depending on the word they are attached to. For example, "書く" becomes "書かない" when the negative "ない" is added. Did you notice the one-character change? If you look at another example of how to make a question sentence as one of the basic sentence patterns, you will see that you can add "か" to the end of the sentence." I understand." is "わかります," and "Do you understand?" is "わかりますか" Please enjoy learning about the profound world of Japanese grammar. Recommended Learning Resources for Beginners This section introduces resources and tools recommended for beginners of Japanese language learning. These three are introduced here. Learn the basics with online learning materials Learn practical skills at language exchange events Use apps to learn efficiently All of these methods are easy for beginners to learn, so let's look at them in order! Learn the basics with online materials This section introduces online teaching materials and websites for beginners and explains how to make use of them. First of all, let's learn what kind of grammar there is in Japanese at grammar explanation websites. It is difficult to learn just by reading, so we recommend practicing on free material websites. If you practice repeatedly, you will be able to consolidate your grammar. Furthermore, if you use video materials, you can deepen your understanding by seeing how grammar is used in actual conversations. You can also train your listening skills at the same time. Acquire practical skills at language exchange events This section describes how to participate in language exchange events and how to make the most effective use of them. Language exchange events are held both in person and online. To find online language exchange events, we recommend the app Meetup or Facebook groups. Also, when communicating at events, it is a good idea to do active listening and take notes instead of being passive. By participating regularly, rather than just once, you will get into the habit of learning and improve your learning. Use apps for efficient learning This section introduces and explains how to use Japanese language learning apps for beginners available on smartphones and tablets. Grammar practice apps such as Duolingo are effective for making steady progress in your spare time. How about replacing the time you usually spend casually looking at your smartphone with grammar practice apps? In the case of vocabulary and kanji learning apps, it is also recommended to review them repeatedly over a certain period of time. Even if you think you have learned them once, look back every week or month in order to retain them in your long-term memory. Furthermore, to consolidate these inputs, it is recommended to practice your practical skills with a conversation practice application. You can get feedback during the interaction, and the sense of accomplishment when you get the message across will help keep you motivated. Even beginners who are interested in Japanese from anime and manga can learn Japanese while having fun by acquiring basic knowledge of the language and using effective resources. Let's make good use of online materials, language exchange events, and apps to continue learning Japanese. Ohanasi Kagawa offers free online language exchange events on weekends. Japanese and English learners are paired one-on-one and switch the language they speak every 15 minutes, so even beginners can practice their conversation skills. We have various rules in place to ensure that everyone can enjoy the event comfortably, so even those new to online events can participate with confidence.

Let's improve your Japanese language skills by using accelerated Learning methods and Japanese language hacks. Read to the end and you will be able to learn Japanese efficiently! 1. Utilizing Accelerated Japanese Learning Methods In this section, we will introduce effective methods for accelerating your Japanese language learning. The three methods we will be discussing are - Spacing Effect - TPR (Total Physical Response) - Shadowing By utilizing these methods, you can improve your Japanese language skills in a short period of time. 1-1. Learning with the Spacing Effect The spacing effect is a phenomenon in which learning at regular intervals enhances memory retention. Let's learn Japanese vocabulary and grammar efficiently by using this effect. For example, it is recommended to use Anki, which allows you to create your own vocabulary cards with questions and answers, or to create a study schedule on a calendar. It is also a good idea to adjust the timing of your review. 1-2. Japanese Learning with TPR (Total Physical Response) TPR is a learning method that combines physical actions and is effective for memorizing words and phrases. By learning Japanese while actually performing the actions, it is easier to retain them in memory. For example, some ideas include memorizing verbs such as "stand" and "sit" while actually performing the actions that match the meaning of the verb, or memorizing nouns by using actual objects in your home. If you have a practice partner, you can also try role-playing that incorporates gestures. 1-3. Japanese Shadowing Technique The shadowing technique is a method of listening to Japanese audio or video and practicing aloud at the same time. This method is effective in improving both listening and pronunciation skills at the same time. Shadowing with podcasts or audio materials is recommended as an easy way to learn. If you want to study while having fun, you can practice shadowing with Japanese movies and dramas. You can also ask your online conversation partner to "shadow" you if you have someone you can ask. 2. Mastering Japanese Language Hacks In this section, we will introduce some hacks and techniques to help you learn Japanese more efficiently. In this article, we summarize the following three. - Using Kanji radicals  - Understanding the phonetic alphabet - Learning Sentence Patterns By utilizing these Japanese language hacks, you will enjoy learning Japanese! 2-1. Learning Kanji with Radicals Radicals are the building blocks of Kanji. By learning these, you can learn the meaning and reading of kanji efficiently. Let's combine radicals when learning kanji. Start by learning the shape and meaning of the basic radicals. After that, you need to practice finding the radicals and guessing the meaning of the kanji. Once you know the radicals, you can create and learn the story of the kanji. 2-2. Understanding Japanese Sound Changes Japanese sound changes are phonological phenomena related to word and grammatical changes. By understanding sound changes, you will be able to learn Japanese pronunciation and grammar more efficiently. First, there are continuous phonetic stanzas, such as when "aruku" becomes "aruite" instead of "arukite". Second, you should also know sequential voicing (rendaku), which combines the (hana) and (koe) forms to become hana-goe. By learning the rules and exceptions to the phonetic rules, you will be able to guess when you encounter unfamiliar words. 2-3. Learning Japanese Sentence Patterns By learning Japanese Sentence Patterns, you can learn grammar efficiently. Let's master the basic sentence patterns and learn to use them in daily conversation. First, it is essential to memorize the five basic sentence patterns of Japanese. To firmly establish what you have memorized, repeatedly solve practice problems using the sentence patterns. As an application, you will gain confidence if you can practice to the point of utilizing the sentence patterns in your own daily conversation. 3. Utilizing Intensive Japanese Courses In this section, we will show you how to improve your Japanese language skills in a short period of time by taking advantage of intensive Japanese courses. In this article, we will focus on the following three points. - How to choose an online intensive Japanese course - How to study in an intensive Japanese language course - Follow-up after the Intensive Japanese Language Course Let's maximize your learning in the Intensive Japanese Language Course by following the points. 3-1. Choosing an Online Intensive Japanese Course There are many online intensive Japanese language courses offered, but it is important to choose the right course for you. Here are some points to help you choose the right one. The most important thing is to make sure that the course content and goals match your needs.

Studying in an Intensive Japanese Course This section introduces learning methods and tips for effective learning in an Intensive Japanese Course. By adopting effective study methods, you will improve your Japanese language skills in a short period of time. First, it is essential to manage your schedule and establish a study habit. Let's make learning a routine and integrate it into your daily life. Of course, it is also essential to accumulate independent study outside of class. Also, make active use of the feedback you receive in the course by keeping a record of it and reflecting on it regularly. 3-3. Follow-up After an Intensive Japanese Course Follow-up after an Intensive Japanese Course is necessary to consolidate what you have learned. Here we will introduce some effective follow-up methods. Reviewing and practicing what you have learned is essential for follow-up. However, there are limits to what you can do alone, so we recommend joining a Japanese language learning community or finding an online language exchange partner. For example, Ohanasi Kagawa hosts free online language exchange events on weekends. Japanese learners and English learners are paired one-on-one and practice switching the language they speak for 15 minutes at a time. Since they have time to output to each other, they can practice without hesitation rather than being taught one way or the other. You can build a relationship where you can teach each other, so if you want to make friends in Japan, please check out the details of this program.

If you want to learn Japanese, are you wondering what kind of learning method is best for you? In this article, we will introduce you to various means of learning Japanese in a way that suits you best. Read to the end and you will find an effective way to learn Japanese that is perfect for you! Take advantage of local classes, language exchange events, and online tutoring to find the learning method that works best for you. Join local Japanese classes First, here is a summary of how to join a local Japanese class. The two main points are as follows. ・How to find a class ・Types of classes and how to choose one The following is a step-by-step guide to these points. Let's join a Japanese language class near your home and make effective progress in your Japanese language study. How to find a class In this section, we will show you how to find a Japanese language class and the key points to consider when choosing one. There are the following types of Japanese language classes. ・Local community centers ・Language schools The main difference between the two is the purpose of the class. Local community centers often have the purpose of deepening the knowledge of Japanese language, a part of Japanese culture, or international exchange through Japanese language. For this reason, activities are offered on a volunteer basis, and classes are offered in a wide variety of genres, including Japanese culture of food, clothing, and shelter. If tuition is paid, it is very inexpensive. Language schools, on the other hand, operate as a corporation, so you will have to pay somewhat higher tuition fees. By learning Japanese, students aim to work in Japanese or enter a Japanese university after graduation. Therefore, the instruction is often more authentic and systematic than the classes offered at local community centers. Thus, you need to pay attention to the purpose of study, budget, and schedule when choosing the right one. Types of classes and how to choose Once you have decided whether to study at a local community center or at a language school, let's look at the types of classes and how to choose one. First, here are some pointers on choosing classes at different levels, such as beginner, intermediate, and advanced. No matter how much you read the class descriptions, you may feel uneasy if you are not sure which class you fit into. If you are a complete beginner, you will start from the introductory class, but the intermediate and advanced levels often vary greatly from school to school and class to class. If you find a class that interests you, you may feel more comfortable if you inquire about it and observe a class. Furthermore, class types are also divided into group classes and individual tutoring. The advantages and disadvantages are as follows. ・Group classes Relatively inexpensive You can learn from what your classmates say Students can make friends to learn with. Students can encourage and compete with each other Can be difficult for those who are not good at speaking up in front of others You may not always get along with your classmates The class atmosphere depends on the motivation of classmates. ・Private lessons Relatively expensive Students can speak up and ask questions at their own timing You can study at your own pace You can focus on yourself without comparing yourself with others Can be difficult for those who have difficulty staying motivated when working alone May not be suitable for those who want to have friends and rivals Which one seems better suited for you? Please consider the advantages and disadvantages and your budget while choosing the class. Participate in Japanese language exchange events (Japanese language meetups) Next, we will introduce you to language exchange events where you can not only learn Japanese, but also meet new people. Here are two key points. ・How to find an event ・How to find an event Let's take a look at some of the advantages of language exchange events. How to find an event First, here are some tips on how to find a Japanese language exchange event and what to expect when attending. Here are two ways to find a language exchange event. ・Meetup.com ・Facebook Groups Meetup is a platform service that allows you to make connections through hobbies and learning. It is a great way to meet neighbors who are learning Japanese, which may motivate you to learn more. You can also find language exchange events in Facebook groups as well. Once you get used to it, you can be on the side of creating your own group, which is a great way for those who like community. When participating in these events, you should be careful to make sure that the event operator is clearly stated, that the participation fee is not unreasonable, that the event has a good word-of-mouth and reputation, and that the event rules are clear. To avoid trouble, check carefully in advance. Tips at the event Now, let's look at some tips for actually learning Japanese effectively at language exchange events and how to build good relationships. The following two are probably the most important ones that many of you focus on in situations other than learning Japanese. ・Active listening ・Taking notes Traditionally, speaking and writing are considered outputs, while listening and reading are considered inputs, but in recent years active listening has been gaining attention.This is achieved when the listener proactively tries to grasp what the speaker is trying to say. Especially in Japanese language study, it is important to try to understand the essence of what the speaker is trying to say, rather than just letting the conversation flow from right to left. One effective way to achieve this is to take notes. Of course, it would be nice if you could come back with notes on words and grammar that you are exposed to for the first time. Use online Japanese tutors  Finally, we will show you how to find online Japanese tutors and learn Japanese effectively through tutoring. The two main points are as follows. ・How to find an online tutor ・How to choose an online tutor Please refer to the following page for a summary of what online language learning services are like. How to find an online tutor First, we introduce the platforms and methods for finding Japanese language tutors online. Here are two of the recommended methods. ・Using Italki ・Using Preply Italki is an online language learning service for more than 100 languages, and since the system is to pay for each 60-minute lesson, it is recommended for those who are not sure if they can find time to study with a monthly subscription. It is also a safe place to start for those who want to try it out for the first time. The system is divided into professional instructors and tutors, so you can choose the tutor that best suits your needs. Preply is another online language learning service. Preply is another online language learning service that offers a trial lesson to see if the tutor is a good fit for you, and after your trial lesson, you can purchase a course that includes multiple lessons, which is suitable for those who want to continue having lessons with the same tutor. Did get an idea of which one might be right for you? Let's learn about the characteristics of each and choose the method that best fits your study plan. How to choose a tutor In addition, here are some points to consider when choosing the right online Japanese language tutor for you. The two points are as follows. ・Teaching experience ・Student reviews First, regarding teaching experience, check what kind of educational institution they have been teaching at and for how many years. If they also include their educational background and qualifications in Japanese language education, it shows that they have specialized in Japanese language education. The profile often includes information about the type of classes they aim to teach, so please check to see if it matches what you are aiming for. And if you can see reviews by students, please refer to them as well. Even if there is no information on educational background or qualifications, if the school has a very good reputation, you can expect to find it. If you can confirm what kind of teaching style is used and what parts of the course made a good impression, you can apply for the course with confidence. Conclusion In this way, you can learn Japanese in a way that suits you best, whether it is through local Japanese language classes, Japanese language exchange events, or online tutoring. By trying different means and finding the best learning method, you will be able to learn Japanese effectively. If you are interested in language exchange events, among others, we recommend Ohanasi Kagawa, which holds free online language exchange events on weekends.
