日本語は読めるけど、話すのが苦手な方、日本の小説を日本語で読んでみたい方、面接やプレゼンの練習をしたい方、敬語やビジネス会話を覚えたい方、文章を書く練習をしたい方、お待ちしています。 私はビジネスをリタイヤした後、何をしようかと考えていたとき、まず思い浮かんだことは、外国語を学んで海外の人たちと交流をするということでした。しかし、逆に、私が日本語を教えることによって、多くの外国の方が日本語を理解し、日本が好きになってくれることのほうが、私のためにも、日本語を学ぶ皆さんのためにも有意義だと考えて、日本語教師になりました。 When I was thinking about what I would do after retiring from business, the first thing that came to mind was to learn a foreign language and interact with people from other countries. However, I thought that it would be more meaningful for me and for people learning Japanese if I could help many foreigners understand the Japanese language and come to love Japan by teaching it to them.

Certified Japanese Teacher for Anime Fans – Learn with a Pro! Since I was a university student, I have studied various languages such as Chinese, Korean. Therefore, I understand your difficulties in learning Japanese. I ’m a language learner too. English is a language that I have been studying for a long time. I respect people who can speak English or any other language that I have studied. I think it is hard to control your motivation, especially when you are learning a language that isn't much of an opportunity to use in a daily life. But the most important thing is enjoy learning. I will listen to your interests and do my best to include as much as possible in the teaching materials. So, please tell me a lot about yourself in the first lesson!

Frequently asked questions about online Japanese classes

Do I need a tutor to learn Japanese?

You can learn Japanese without a tutor using free apps, textbooks, and online videos, but it usually takes much longer. Self-study often lacks real speaking practice, immediate feedback, and clear guidance, which makes it harder to stay motivated and progress confidently.Hiring a Japanese language tutor is worth it because they provide personalised lessons, real-time correction on pronunciation and grammar, and structured learning designed around your goals, whether that’s everyday conversation, business Japanese, or passing the JLPT exam.

While it’s possible to learn without platforms like italki, doing so often feels overwhelming and slow because you don’t have a clear learning path or someone to hold you accountable. Combining private Japanese lessons from an online Japanese tutor with extra resources like kanji apps, flashcards, and podcasts gives you the best of both worlds, professional guidance to learn correctly and extra practice to accelerate your progress.

How much does a Japanese tutor cost per session?

Online Japanese lessons typically range from $15 to $60 per hour, depending on the tutor’s experience and lesson format. Many learners choose private Japanese tutors because they provide personalized guidance, instant correction, and real conversation practice that help them progress faster than studying alone.

On italki, you have access to both community and professional tutors, making it easy to find a Japanese teacher that matches your goals and budget. A 30-minute Japanese lesson typically costs between $3 and $10.

How quickly will I become fluent with a Japanese teacher?

Fluency in Japanese depends on your study habits, consistency, and starting level, but working with a Japanese teacher can significantly speed up your progress. Experts estimate that reaching professional working proficiency in Japanese takes about 2,200 hours of study. That said, you don’t need that much time to start speaking. Most learners reach a conversational level after 400–600 hours, which often means 6–12 months of regular tutoring.

Lessons are tailored to your needs, you receive hands-on guidance, and you practice real conversation in every session.This focused approach to Japanese teaching helps you stay consistent, motivated, and moves you toward higher levels of fluency.

Why should I use a Japanese language tutor to learn Japanese with italki?

Using a Japanese language tutor on italki helps you learn the Japanese you’ll actually use, not just textbook phrases, by focusing on real conversations, common expressions, and situations you encounter in daily life.

Your private Japanese tutor can help you practice conversation, review grammar, prepare for exams like the JLPT, or build confidence in speaking, with lessons customized to your level and pace. They correct mistakes on the spot, suggest natural ways to phrase things, and explain cultural context, so you communicate appropriately in any situation.

All lessons are available anytime online, and most operate on a pay-as-you-go system, so you only pay for the private Japanese lessons you take. For learners looking for extra support, italki Plus also offers an optional subscription with features like AI-powered study tools, exclusive events, and discounts.

How do italki's online Japanese classes work?

italki’s online Japanese classes are simple, flexible, and personalized. Here’s how they work:

  • 📝 Create an account – Sign up on italki and start browsing hundreds of qualified Japanese tutors with detailed profiles showing their teaching style, experience, and student reviews.
  • 🔍 Find a tutor – Choose a tutor that fits your goals and schedule, filtering by price, availability, specialization, or tutor type. Many tutors offer trial lessons to help you find the right match.
  • 💻 Book and attend lessons – Meet your private Japanese tutor via italki’s video platform. Your tutor will assess your level, discuss objectives, and tailor lessons to your needs.
  • 📚 Practice between lessons – Tutors often provide extra resources or conversation practice to help you progress.
  • ⏱️ Learn at your own pace – Lessons are fully flexible and can be scheduled daily, weekly, or as often as you like, allowing you to maintain consistent practice and make steady progress in learning Japanese online.

How often should I meet with an online Japanese tutor?

How often you meet with an online Japanese tutor depends on your goals, schedule, and current level. Beginners often benefit from 2–3 online Japanese lessons per week to build consistency, practice speaking, and reinforce new grammar and vocabulary. Intermediate and advanced learners may have 1–2 online Japanese lessons per week for focused practice, exam preparation, or conversation skills.

Consistency is key. Short, regular lessons are usually more effective than longer, infrequent sessions. Your learning style also matters: some students do well with more intensive lessons, while others prefer a slower, steady pace. A private Japanese tutor can help you design a schedule that fits your lifestyle, and lessons can be adjusted as your goals evolve.

Do italki's Japanese tutors offer free online Japanese lessons?

While italki Japanese tutors don’t offer completely free lessons, many provide trial lessons at a heavily discounted rate. Each student can book up to three trial lessons (one per tutor), giving you the chance to experience different Japanese teaching styles before committing. These trial lessons let you try a Japanese lesson online, assess the tutor’s approach, discuss your goals, and see if their style suits you. It’s a low-risk way to find the right Japanese teacher for your needs.

Do I need a basic understanding of the Japanese language before I can take Japanese classes with italki?

No. You don’t need any previous knowledge to start learning Japanese on italki. The platform has many Japanese tutors for beginners who specialize in teaching students with no prior knowledge of Japanese. These tutors understand the challenges of starting from scratch and know how to make the language approachable from day one.

Finding a Japanese tutor for beginners is simple. When browsing tutor profiles, filter by specialization (such as “beginners”), watch introduction videos, and read reviews from other students.

Starting as a complete beginner can even be an advantage, since your Japanese instructor will guide you toward good pronunciation and grammar habits from the very beginning.

What is the difference between an italki Community tutor vs. Professional tutor?

The main difference between an italki community tutor and a professional tutor lies in their qualifications, teaching style, and focus.Professional tutors are certified teachers with formal training. They offer structured lessons with prepared materials, covering grammar, vocabulary, and exam prep. They provide study resources and detailed feedback during online Japanese lessons, making them ideal for beginners or students seeking systematic learning.

Community tutors, on the other hand, are native or fluent speakers without formal teaching credentials. They focus on conversational practice, helping learners build fluency and confidence in a flexible, informal, and often more budget-friendly way.Many learners use both: professional Japanese tutors for foundational skills and community Japanese tutors for speaking practice.

What are the benefits of private online Japanese lessons?

Private online Japanese lessons with a dedicated Japanese language instructor make learning faster, easier, and more enjoyable than group classes or self-study. Your lessons are customized to your level, goals, and interests, be it mastering kanji, improving pronunciation, preparing for the JLPT, or speaking confidently in daily conversation.

This personalized Japanese tuition speeds up learning because your tutor adapts the pace and teaching style to suit how you learn best. You can ask questions freely, revisit difficult concepts, and spend extra time on areas that need the most attention without holding back other students.

Plus, private online Japanese lessons are convenient and adaptable. You can access qualified Japanese tutors from anywhere, often at rates lower than a local in-person instructor. This kind of Japanese tutoring helps you make real progress and use the language confidently.

How to hire a Japanese tutor with italki?

Hiring a Japanese tutor on italki is simple and straightforward. Here’s how to get started:

  • 📝 Create an account – Sign up for free on the italki website or mobile app and select Japanese as the language you want to learn.
  • 🔍 Find a tutor – Use the “Find a teacher” search feature to browse qualified Japanese teachers.
  • 👀 Review profiles – Watch introduction videos and read student reviews to find a tutor who fits your learning goals and style.
  • ⚙️ Filter tutors – Narrow your search by price, availability, lesson type, tutor type, or location.

Once you find a tutor you like, follow these steps:

  • 🎯 Book a trial lesson – Experience their teaching approach firsthand to see if they’re the right fit.
  • 📅 Schedule regular lessons – Set up private lessons at times that suit your schedule.
  • 💻 Use italki Classroom – All lessons take place on italki’s built-in Classroom, which handles scheduling, payments, and reminders, making your online Japanese lessons simple and effective.
