Enrollment Steps

Kurokawa-sensei's curriculum is well thought out and is very custom just for me. She goes above and beyond to share cultural information relevant to Japan that supports the learning and dovetails with my specific interests. I can say that Nihongo-Pro is much more than just a Japanese language learning opportunity. A holistic approach that incorporates cultural context and nuance makes the experience even more fulfilling and mind-opening.

The technology of the custom online classroom is brilliant and works flawlessly every time! I love the automatic definitions in the chat box and the useful transcript that Kurokawa-sensei sends to me after each lesson. I use the transcripts to add Japanese vocabulary to my flash cards and explore concepts more deeply on my own. What's more, the streaming video is perfect and the sound is crystal clear. In my experience, it is superior to what you would encounter on most other remote learning platforms.

Thanks again to Kurokawa-sensei and Nihingo-Pro. I can't wait to learn more!

Before I started, I had no idea how much the Japanese language had changed in the past century in terms of grammar and kanji use. Working at a small university without a developed Japanese program, I was not sure where to turn for help for acquiring such a specific set of Japanese skills.

Although my situation was unusual, Nihongo-Pro was more than happy to find a teacher who could help me. Nakano-sensei has been an amazing resource. She helped me to find Japanese books on how to read texts written in my period of study and formulate a study plan. She has time and again patiently helped me to tackle even the most difficult texts, and I am deeply grateful for the extensive preparation she has done before each online lesson.

Nihongo-Pro is more than a resource for passing the JLPT; it can flexibly accommodate a wide variety of individual Japanese language instruction needs for students anywhere in the world where there is an Internet connection.
