• At N5, you learn foundational scripts plus roughly 100 kanji and survival-level conversation.
• At N4 level, you handle simple discussions with expanded kanji knowledge and elementary grammar.
• N3 requires around 650 kanji and the ability to follow everyday topics in newspapers or conversations.
• N2 involves roughly 1,000 kanji and understanding nuanced content from newspapers, magazines, or workplace settings.
• N1 represents expert-level command, including 2,000 kanji and the skill to process academic or technical content.

This tiered system allows you to identify your current stage and plan your advancement systematically.

A private Japanese lesson in Brunswick East generally runs at $30/h on average.

Rates can shift based on multiple criteria:

• The learner's stage (novice, developing, advanced)
• The teacher's experience and qualifications (certifications, teaching background)
• The duration and frequency of lessons (single sessions, weekly packages, intensive blocks)
• The mode of instruction (virtual, in-person at your place, at the tutor's venue)

Many tutors provide a free trial lesson so you can test their teaching style before committing.

You must learn hiragana (phonetic syllables), katakana (borrowed words), and kanji (logographic symbols) to read Japanese.

• Hiragana provides 46 phonetic symbols for Japanese sounds and handles particles, verb endings, and native vocabulary.
• The katakana script (46 symbols) captures non-Japanese vocabulary and sound effects with distinctive, blocky lines.
• Kanji are logographic symbols adopted from Chinese, with each character conveying meaning as well as sound.

Mastering all three systems lets you read signs, menus, newspapers, and novels without relying on romanisation.

Begin by memorising hiragana and katakana in the first month, then tackle kanji progressively as you advance.
