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

• 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 demands familiarity with 650 kanji and comprehension of standard written and spoken material.
• At N2, you master around 1,000 kanji and interpret complex texts encountered in professional or media contexts.
• N1 tests near-native fluency with approximately 2,000 kanji and the capacity to understand abstract or specialised material.

The JLPT framework helps you measure improvement step by step and choose appropriate learning resources.

A private Japanese lesson in Park Avenue generally runs at $25/h on average.

Rates can shift based on multiple criteria:

• The learner's stage (novice, developing, advanced)
• The tutor's expertise and credentials (diplomas, years in education)
• How often and how long you study (one-off classes, regular schedules, crash courses)
• The lesson format (online, at home, or at the teacher's location)

Choosing online sessions may also lower expenses while maintaining flexibility and quality.

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 represent concepts or objects directly; for example, 山 means "mountain" and can be read as "yama" or "san."

Once you command hiragana, katakana, and a solid base of kanji, you unlock authentic Japanese texts and daily communication.

Start with hiragana and katakana (they take a few weeks), then gradually build your kanji repertoire over time.
