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!

I find writing the journal very useful as it allows me to express my experiences in Japanese and it makes it easy to identify mistakes I make while writing. The pace of the classes is appropriate and if I need more time on a certain Japanese grammar point Arai-sensei will make time for it. Being a foreign tourist, I also appreciate the occasional explanation of Japanese culture in conjunction with lessons.

Since I work evenings it is important to me to have a consistent schedule to learn and Nihongo-Pro allows me to do this while still maintaining flexibility when I occasionally need to make a change to the schedule. The Nihongo-Pro classroom is well designed and allows for a customized lesson. While I still have a long way to go with my Japanese studies, I look forward to continuing my learning with Arai-sensei through Nihongo-Pro.
