🌸 Here’s how each lesson works — step by step

1. Understand — Learn meaning, mindset, and culture

(5-10 mins)

Short videos explain expressions through the Japanese perspective. You learn why Japanese is said this way, so grammar and phrases finally make sense. (PDF summary included)

2. Practise — Build your own sentences

(5-10 mins)

You practise speaking with clear, natural examples. Instead of memorising phrases, you create sentences that fit your own life, so they come out naturally in conversation.

3. Speak — Use the expressions in real conversation

(approx 5 mins)

You watch a model conversation, then answer questions as if we’re in a live session together. From the first lesson to the conversation task, you’re not just watching — you’re speaking with me, step by step.

4. Check — Confirm your progress (Quiz)

A short quiz helps you see what you can do before moving to the next lesson. You build confidence one small success at a time.

Before, I couldn’t find a textbook or a course that suited my learning style. It was annoying that I had to waste lots of money on books and classes that didn’t help my studies.

But I have become confident enough to speak with Japanese natives.

Arai Academy's learning support is fantastic, I leaned how to study Japanese which worked because it's completely different approach from leaning French.

Now, I feel much more confident when communicating in Japanese without too much difficulty.
