        Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

        🌆 How can I master Japanese in Salem, MA and what are my options in terms of commitment?

        Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have 4 primary possibilities for learning Japanese interactively in Salem, MA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, research centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are less pricey.) Your other resource can be local private language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can find a private Japanese tutor in Salem, MA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Salem, MA and online Japanese tutors.

        🎟 Is it cheap to learn Japanese and what does a lesson with a tutor of Japanese cost?

        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 price of about 50 course hours each semester. Language academies and individual Japanese tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the better priced Japanese tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 19 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, positive reviews and popularity. Customer review average for Japanese lessons on Preply is 4.97 out of 5 stars.

        📚 How much Japanese do I need to know to sign up for a course?

        When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. All 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 find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like teaching children or teens, etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

        🔥 Why is Japanese so hard and are there ways to learn it more effectively?

        Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Japanese. As proven by others before, you can gain basic Japanese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand most phrases, be understood when you talk, shop and place orders in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Japanese. After gaining 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 achieve a good level of Japanese?

        Some people just 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 study. The amount of time can differ a lot depending on your already acquired level of Japanese or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is best 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 this is not easy you can also take conversational Japanese classes online.

        🤳 Can I pick my own Japanese instructor?

        In language learning academies, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, of course! The largest selection of verified Japanese tutors with detailed profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

        🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

        Colleges typically schedule classes two times weekly over a semester (75-day period). Language schools typically give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
