Japanese proficiency is ranked through the JLPT system, which spans from N5 for beginners up to N1 for near-native speakers.

• 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 requires around 650 kanji and the ability to follow everyday topics in newspapers or conversations.
• At N2, you master around 1,000 kanji and interpret complex texts encountered in professional or media contexts.
• At N1, you operate at near-native competence, reading intricate texts and recognising around 2,000 kanji.

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

Japanese lessons in Seabrook typically cost around $50/h per session.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Your current proficiency (entry-level, mid-range, expert)
• The teacher's experience and qualifications (certifications, teaching background)
• How often and how long you study (one-off classes, regular schedules, crash courses)
• Where you meet (video calls, your residence, the teacher's studio)

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

The language relies on hiragana for native words, katakana for foreign terms, and kanji for meaning-based characters.

• 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 are logographic symbols adopted from Chinese, with each character conveying meaning as well as sound.

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

Learn hiragana and katakana early (achievable in weeks), after which you can steadily expand your kanji knowledge.
