About online lessons

Our courses

Every class is tailored to you in Bath, but as an example:

Beginners

Never studied Japanese? Start with hiragana, katakana and the phrases you need to get by in Japan: ordering food, buying a train ticket, asking for directions and chatting with locals.

Intermediate & advanced

Already know the basics, or studied at school or university? Build your kanji, polish your grammar and learn the natural, casual Japanese you won't find in a textbook.

Children & GCSE

Fun lessons for young learners, support for GCSE and A-level Japanese, and help for bilingual children keeping their Japanese going while living in the UK.

Conversation

Not interested in grammar drills? Spend an hour or two a week just speaking Japanese with a native speaker and watch your confidence grow.

JLPT preparation

Structured preparation for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, from N5 to N1, with practice papers, vocabulary and kanji drills.

Business Japanese

Keigo (polite language), meetings, emails and business etiquette for anyone working with Japanese companies or colleagues.
