To read Japanese, you need to master three alphabets: hiragana, katakana, and kanji.

• Hiragana (ひらがな) contains 46 characters representing syllables, used for native Japanese words and grammar.
• You'll use katakana's 46 characters for words borrowed from English and other languages.
• Kanji (漢字) consists of thousands of characters, each carrying meaning.

Sentences end with the verb in Japanese, which differs from English word order.

A private tutor can guide you through each writing system at your pace and correct mistakes in real time.

Japan's official proficiency exam uses five levels: N5 is easiest, N1 is the most challenging.

• N5 covers basic hiragana, katakana, and around 100 kanji, plus simple everyday phrases.
• With N4, you understand routine interactions and can navigate daily situations in Japan.
• N3 serves as a bridge level, requiring around 650 kanji and intermediate grammar.
• N2 demands roughly 1,000 kanji and lets you read articles, follow lectures, and work in Japanese environments.
• N1 requires about 2,000 kanji and signifies near-native comprehension across all contexts.

Private lessons let you focus on weak areas and prepare efficiently for whichever level you're aiming for.
