Our Most Common Questions Answered

  1. 1. What is Learn Katai Japanese?

    It’s a flexible, goal-focused Japanese program where lessons are tailored to you. Think of it as a guided path to actually using Japanese in real life, rather than just memorising words.

  2. 2. Do I need to know Japanese before joining?

    Not at all! Whether you’re starting from zero or brushing up on skills, the lessons adjust to your level.

  3. 3. How do lessons work?

    Each lesson is interactive and practical. You’ll engage in conversation practice, learn grammar and vocabulary, and complete exercises that actually help you speak and understand Japanese naturally.

  4. 4. Can I reschedule lessons?

    Yes! Life happens, so lessons can be rescheduled with a bit of notice.

  5. 5. What tech do I need?

    Just a device with a camera, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. That’s all you need to jump in.

  6. 6. Are lessons via Zoom or another platform?

    Zoom is the main platform, but alternatives can be arranged if needed.

  7. 7. How is this different from apps like Duolingo or textbooks?

    Apps and textbooks are great for practice, but they can’t replace live interaction. Learn Katai provides you with instant feedback, conversation practice, and guidance tailored to your specific goals.

  8. 8. Do you follow a specific curriculum or textbook?

    We can use structured textbooks like Minna no Nihongo or Japanese for Busy People, but lessons are mostly personalised to focus on what you want to achieve.

  9. 9. What kind of Japanese will I learn?

    Formal, casual, or business Japanese, it depends on your goals. You pick, and we shape the lessons around that.

  10. 10. Can I focus only on speaking? Or reading and writing too?

    Totally up to you. Some learners focus purely on speaking, while others want a full mix that includes reading and writing. The program adapts to you.
