The Japanese Language Proficiency Test organises learners into five tiers: N5 at entry level through to N1 at mastery level.

• N5 covers basic hiragana, katakana, around 100 kanji, and simple everyday phrases.
• N4 adds more kanji (approximately 300) and straightforward sentence patterns for informal exchanges.
• N3 demands familiarity with 650 kanji and comprehension of standard written and spoken material.
• 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.

These levels give you clear milestones to track your progress and set realistic study goals.

A private Japanese lesson in Canning Vale generally runs at $35/h on average.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Your current proficiency (entry-level, mid-range, expert)
• The tutor's expertise and credentials (diplomas, years in education)
• 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)

Some teachers offer discounted rates for bulk bookings, which can reduce the long-term cost.

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

• Hiragana consists of 46 basic characters representing syllables like "ka," "mi," or "su," and it forms the backbone of grammar.
• Katakana mirrors hiragana's 46 sounds yet employs sharper shapes for words like "コーヒー" (coffee) or brand names.
• Kanji represent concepts or objects directly; for example, 山 means "mountain" and can be read as "yama" or "san."

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.
