Some facts about the Japanese anguage

Japanese pronunciation is fairly simple, and the grammar is not as complicated as in other languages. There is no “tone” in Japanese. In Japanese conversation, you don’t have to say the subject of a sentence every time, and you can talk with just a verb or an adjective in a sentence. Therefore, it is said in this sense that Japanese is easier to learn than other languages.

However, Japanese people often use honorifics (forms of politeness in the language) and gender words depending on the position of the speaker in society, and often prefer to use ambiguous expressions and unclear answers. This is one of the reasons why words in the textbooks are different from the words actually spoken.

What is JLPT?

JLPT is an abbreviation for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, which is a test to measure the Japanese language proficiency of people who do not speak Japanese as their mother tongue. The JLPT has five levels: JLPT N1, JLPT N2, JLPT N3, JLPT N4 and JLPT N5.

This test comprehensively measures your Japanese communication skills based on the three areas of “linguistic knowledge,” “reading comprehension,” and “listening comprehension.” Let’s start free JLPT online course. Try free online Japanese language course with certificate.

I went for the course with a volunteer teacher and it worked great for me. Adaptability and flexibility with my schedule and working hours, took the time to design a teaching program that worked well with both my objectives and the time I could allow to studying. I felt it did wonders for my Japanese and it was also a fun way to study, highly recommend.

Very helpful if you want to learn Japanese. They have various options of tutoring, and you probably find one at your location (or online, if you want) and according to your needs. Coordination via e-mail or Whatsapp is swift and in excellent English, the tutors are all very helpful (I chose the partner level) and you get to choose which one(s) suit(s) you best. The online presence is also very useful. Highly recommended.

Mr Honda did a great job. He always cares about the status of learner and if you have any questions, he provides answers right away. Just describe what kind of teacher you need, he will find a suitable one for you. I had great time with my teacher and learned a lot of japanese culture or customs which I haven’t known before.

I have good tutors who tolerate my mistakes while talking with them in Japanese. Of course, they also correct my mistakes. My fluency may not have immediately improved but through the lessons I had,my confidence increased and I felt comfortable using Japanese.Helping Hand has definitely helped me a lot.

HH JapaNeeds is a really big help to those who wanted to learn Nihongo. All lessons are easy to understand and you will learn a lot. I am only having the free e-learning lessons because I don’t have quite the time for online tutoring but I think availing the online class would benefit the learner more. Each lesson kept me motivated to study Japanese. ありがとうございました!

I am from Malaysia and I have been taking the Japanese lessons at HH JapaNeeds since 8 months ago, in the beginning I know nothing much about Japanese language but now I can speak and write like a Japanese! This won’t happen without the dedication and commitment shown by my tutor, Tsatsurou-san , he is such a nice tutor and I appreciate all the lessons he has been giving to me that improves my Japanese language so much!Also, the headmaster of HH JapaNeeds, Naoteru-san, he is very helpful in arranging the right tutor for me.I strongly recommend those who want to learn Japanese language to try out HH JapaNeeds service, you won’t be regret here!

I was very quickly contacted for a short personal interview. After assessing my Japanese skills, a tutor near me was quickly found. She was experienced, laid back, very instructive, prepared,… I’ve been working with her for half a year now and am very happy with our performance

Really happy about HH JapaNeeds’ services. They helped me find a tutor close to where I live and the said tutor offered a tailored teaching method that I enjoyed. I absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants/needs to improve their Japanese.

Hhjapaneeds is a very good platform to meet new people and a good way to learn new language. I enjoyed it very much. I am not only learning how to converse but learning the culture is a plus. I highly recommend it to others to try this, to experience also speaking to native japanese and become friends with them later on.
