Learn Japanese Online Today

About私たちについて

Teaching Japanese online, the flexible way, since day one.

We help English speakers learn Japanese without forcing them into one rigid method.

Teaching philosophy

The right amount of teacher, at the right time.

Not everything needs a live lesson. Kana, vocabulary and review can happen on your own time with good materials. Speaking, feedback and tricky grammar are where a teacher matters most.

So we combine self-paced video, original study materials, small group classes and 1-on-1 tutoring — and help each student find the most efficient, cost-conscious mix.

Our tutors

Native speakers, plus clear English explanations.

Most of our tutors are native Japanese speakers. Some are fluent non-native speakers who learned Japanese themselves — their English-language explanations can be especially helpful for beginners. We match you with the right tutor for your level and goals.

We are not affiliated with any university, and results vary by student. JLPT results are not guaranteed.

“By far one of the best tutors I have ever had the pleasure of learning from.”

The tutor from Learn Japanese Online Today is by far one of the best tutors I have ever had the pleasure of learning from. She is fun, energetic and super patient. She really takes the time to know you as a student and create the best learning experience for you. I have weekly sessions with her, and I look forward to them every time. She encourages you to message her if you have any questions and has been accommodating when I needed flexibility in my schedule.

“I’ve made real progress thanks to her lessons.”

My tutor is an amazing Japanese teacher, patient with my learning speed, encouraging my progress, and explains things in a way that is easy for me to understand. She’s clarified things for me I’ve struggled trying to comprehend on my own, and I’ve made real progress thanks to her lessons. I’d recommend her to anyone looking to learn Japanese with confidence.
