My name is Terumi, and I’m the founder of Japan Language Factory. Learning a language is not easy, especially Japanese, one of the most difficult languages. But it’s not impossible to be fluent.
Five years ago, I couldn’t speak English at all, but now I can speak English, Greek, and German. Our learning techniques and methods are based on my experience and how children learn languages.
Why can five-year-old children speak Japanese fluently without knowing how to write it? The problem is not the language itself but the learning method. The right approach can make learning Japanese much faster.
Pros: A university program covers Japanese history, language, and culture. Graduates often pass JLPT N1 or N2 and can become Japanese teachers.
Cons: It takes four years, requires attending classes daily, and is expensive. It also lacks personalized training for real-life conversations.
Cost Estimate: $92,819 for four years in Tokyo.
Pros: More affordable and flexible than universities. Courses range from a month to a year and focus on JLPT preparation.
Cons: Fixed schedules make it difficult for working professionals. Most programs emphasize grammar and reading over conversation skills.
Pros: Affordable, flexible, and provides interaction with native speakers. Some apps are free, and tutors are available at low costs.
Cons: The quality of tutors varies. Many native speakers focus on practicing their English rather than teaching Japanese seriously.
Pros: Free or low-cost, with a wealth of online resources.
Cons: Learning alone can be slow and inefficient. Without proper guidance, mistakes may go unnoticed.
Pros: Japan Language Factory is not just a language school but a Japanese speech coaching school. It focuses on conversation skills with personal coaching. The method eliminates unnecessary kanji writing and reading and prioritizes practical speaking skills.
Cons: Not suitable for those who want to learn kanji, pass JLPT, or focus on reading.
