Japademy Course Review

I feel that Kanami-san and her coworkers have done a great job of creating a fun and supportive learning environment. Rather than feeling pressured, I feel empowered to learn. Also, the small class sizes make for a very non-intimidating learning environment. The homework outside of class reinforces what we are learning during the class. Additionally, the Japanese Conversation Club is a great way to meet and practice speaking Japanese with fellow students.I feel that the course is very well structured, and is an excellent value for the money.

I enrolled in Japademy after many years away from studying Japanese. I am an older adult, yet I found that I fit in well with my classmates and enjoyed the live online classes. The teachers are all very well prepared, patient, and helpful. The learning materials are well developed and appropriate for each stage of learning. The "conversation club" was very helpful in practicing what we learned with others in a natural way. It was great fun getting know my classmates over the months, and there was always a fun, supportive atmosphere. And finally, the value for money is excellent. I would not be able to find this high quality of Japanese instruction for the cost anywhere else than Japademy.

Daniela-san, arigatou gozaimasu! It was great to have you learning Japanese with us. I'm happy to know you found our Beginner 1 course useful. <3

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Very helpful introduction to Japanese.

I loved how patient Erina sensei was and how she (or Kanami) were quick to respond to emails when I had a questions.

My one recommendation is that it would be helpful if the online materials matched the flow of the course so that we could follow along/practice more easily. There were only 5 chapters in the online course but 10 weeks of lessons. I like to review the course material prior to the class but I had no idea what we would be covering and had to guess where to stop.

Many thanks.

Nancy-san, thank you very much. This is actually great feedback! We will consider your suggestion to make the online courses follow perhaps a week-by-week order so that they match our 10-Week Online Courses! :)

Japademy has helped me ease in to learning the language, considering that it's very intimidating as a beginner. The class interactions using the lesson slides are very helpful!

Online classes that make learning easy

My daughter is 13 years old. She really enjoys the classes, the lessons are simple and easy to understand, and the teacher explains everything in detail. Online learning is very convenient.

I'm very happy to hear that your daughter is enjoying learning Japanese with us. She is indeed a great student during her lessons with Kanami-sensei. :)

Highly recommend the online live classes

I took the Beginner 1 general course online. It was excellent. They help break things down to make it easy to understand and learn. I love that you can access the sessions before and after class so you can review the concepts. They gave homework practice to solidify the learnings and love that there was a training app we could access.

Japademy Is Helping Me Rapidly Improve

I was studying using phone apps for two years and my progress was very slow, and my focus couldn't be maintained. With Japademy I can speak with native speakers, practice writing in my homework, study the vocabulary in Quizlet, complete extra practice sheets, complete ungraded quizzes, and add all the unknown words I encounter in class into a vocab notebook. Now I have a rotating circuit that keeps me engaged. I look forward to the next intake that is coming soon.

No stress, but good progress!

Japademy classes take the stress out of learning Japanese!
The teachers are always patient, encouraging and excited about the students’ progress!
You also have an option to review the material ahead of the class or after it, so the progress and retention of the concepts is pretty easy. And as the classes are small, you end up speaking a considerable amount of Japanese every class, which is amazing!

A great curriculum focused on practical phrases

I enjoyed the focus on constructing practical sentences for conversation like asking for your favorite hobby, asking for directions, and describing what someone else's opinion is.

I am gaining more practical speaking knowledge than perfecting my grammar from a textbook.

I look forward to class every week. I can't believe I can finally read, write and speak Japanese!

I have wanted to learn Japanese for so long! I've tried apps, Youtube videos, and self-instruction, but nothing ever really stuck. I've been studying with Japademy for 4 going on 5 terms at this point and, week after week, I continue to see amazing results. I think to myself, "wow I can actually read, write, and speak Japanese". Kanami-san is an amazing teacher and she really cares about her students. I genuinely look forward to class every week and feel so motivated to keep studying on my own after each lesson. I highly recommend Japademy to anyone (at any level) wanting to learn Japanese!!

Take classes-you won't regret it.

かなみ先生最高です! I have been taking Japanese for a few year but never got past a certain level, Japademy let me go further than ever with Japanese and the classes are fun and engaging. The only negative is that I wish I had class more than once a week, the classes are so great I'm happy to be in them :)

Japademy is perfect for beginners!! 10-weeks and you'll LEARN a lot :)

Japademy is definitely a great to place to start your journey as a beginner to learn Japanese. Kanami sensei is truly an amazing teacher. She is patient and very knowledgeable. I enrolled to beginner 1 with no prior knowledge and now looking back, I'm extremely happy with the progress I've made (right from learning hiragana, katakana + all the useful vocabulary and grammar). Thanks to Kanami sensei and her team for putting together all the course materials and I'm happy to continue learning Japanese at Japademy.
