Group, Private, JLPT, and Corporate Lessons
Our FlexLessons classes (1 to 7 students) work just like a class you might
take in person. It's a fun, relaxed way to learn Japanese.
If you prefer one-on-one instruction, JOI's competitively priced private lessons are the fastest
way to improve your Japanese ability.
If you're working toward the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT), we offer a comprehensive selection of
JLPT preparation classes, including a JLPT Level 3 class,
a JLPT Level 2 class, and
a JLPT Level 1 class. These FlexLessons classes focus specifically
on JLPT grammar, vocabulary, Kanji, and reading comprehension. Like all FlexLessons classes,
you can start these online classes at any time and take classes when your schedule permits.
Professional, Native Teachers with a Focus on Students
JOI instructors—all native Japanese speakers—include government-certified professionals with university
and post-graduate education. Our rigorous teacher selection process ensures the
highest quality in instruction.
JOI is more than classes—your enrollment at our online Japanese school includes access
to these features:
Chat in Japanese with other students in our 24-hour video chat rooms
Challenge yourself to 6 Japanese language quizzes every day
“JOI is excellent for those who don't have the time for traditional classrooms. With real-time interaction with native sensei's, we students get a feeling that the classes are actually being taught, not that we're just looking at a web page.”

“After the initial shock of speaking in front of a digital classroom, you won't forget any of the words your sensei is teaching you! I strongly recommend JOI to anybody interested in gaining a better grasp of the Japanese language! JOI, ありがとうございます。”
