Looking for Evening or Weekend Lessons?
We recommend our partner Coto Language Academy who provide high quality Japanese lessons to meet your evening & weekend needs.
Yes, we offer bonus free make up lessons for our students.
If you are taking 1 class a week, you will receive 1 make up class for the month. If you are taking three classes, you receive 3 classes.
Please note that you would need to be flexible in your schedule and that we cannot guarantee a group lesson student the ability to make up the exact lesson.
We unfortunately do not offer flex schedules for both group and private lessons at Japan Switch. Fortunately, this is why we are able to charge 30 – 50% less than our competitors 🙂
At Japan Switch, you would need to commit to a fixed schedule for the entire month, but we do offer make up lessons.
If your schedule is busy and you really need flexibility, we recommend our partners Coto Language Academy.
Yes, you can 🙂
You can take as many lessons as you want in a week. The more lessons you take the faster you will learn. However, please note that you would have commit to a specific amount of lessons each week for the whole month.
Ex. You would be unable to take 4 lessons one week and 1 lesson another week.
Yes, you most definitely can.
We are also offering online group lessons.
We do not directly assign homework for our classes. However, we have created a guides on how to learn Japanese outside of class using learning apps and other resources.
Here is an example of a guide we created for our students on how to learn Japanese vocabulary both inside and outside the classroom.
We also have guides on speaking, listening, reading, Kanji, YouTube channels, Apps to study, how to make Japanese friends, Japanese culture, Japanese customs, and even how to hack the JLPT coming in 01/2021
We conduct our classes primarily in Japanese, but use English in our basic course to facilitate comprehension. We also prefer that students avoid having conversations in English with one another during lessons.
