  • Japanese Class: Q&A

    What are the class schedules?
    Please consult our full timetable on the dedicated classes page.

    From what age can one learn Japanese?
    Children can start from the age of 11 or 12, with a fun approach (games, drawings, songs). Teenagers and adults follow more structured programmes, tailored to their goals (travel, studies, culture, manga…).

    Do you offer online Japanese classes?
    Yes! We offer individual classes via video call, ideal for those who cannot travel. Remote classes offer the same quality of teaching, with interactive materials and personalised support.

    Do you need to know kanji before starting?
    No, no prior knowledge is required. Beginner classes start with hiragana and katakana, the two basic writing systems. Kanji are introduced gradually, with mnemonic tools to aid memorisation.

    Is it possible to prepare for a Japanese language exam (JLPT)?
    Yes, we offer intensive courses and specialised classes for JLPT levels N5 to N2. These classes focus on the reading comprehension, grammar and vocabulary needed to pass the exam.
