We offer only private 40 minute man to man lessons, customized to the students needs and requests. Student can start the lessons at anytime and at any level. There is no long term commitment required. We try to make it as simple and economical as possible for you to get started on improving your Japanese communication skills.
Textbooks:
In general we do not sell textbooks and ask students to purchase their own from a local bookstore or online. If a student prefers that we order the textbook for them, we will charge them the actual cost of the textbook, plus a shipping and handling fee ranging between 1,000 ~ 2,000 yen. Total cost of orders will be discussed and confirmed with student before placing the actual order.
Payment:
We do not take cash or credit. All lessons are paid for via bank transfer in advance of lesson start. We need to confirm your payment at least 3 days before actual lesson. The bank account information will be explained to you after you have had your free demo lesson and confirmed that you would like to start with us.
Making a bank transfer for the first time can be a bit difficult. We will provide you with guidance on how to do this.
Registration fee = 0 yen (You only pay for the lessons)
Lesson rates:
Our lessons are sold on a point system. We sell lesson points in units of 5 ~ 100 points. (see rate chart below)
1 lesson = 1 point
