“For me, the two biggest strengths of JOI are schedule flexibility and cost. ”

I started taking lessons with JOI almost 2 years ago. Since enrolling, I have passed the JLPT N3 and am about to take N2 soon. I feel pretty confident that I can pass it on my first try.

Michelle (U.S.A)
“I have the freedom to choose the time that matches my personal schedule.”

This gives me more time to relax and learn at my own pace. Also, the quality of lessons is very good! The teachers are of high caliber also and knows the grammar very well.

John (Philippines)
"From Introductory to Advanced, JOI is able to meet any students' learning needs"
I really appreciate the fact I can choose to practice conversation skills or I can have a more rigorous lesson that will help me prepare for the JLPT Level 4 proficiency test.

Daina (Canada)
"My classmates have been wonderful."

The class schedules have been very convenient and it's great to do it from home. There are lots of regulars who you will attend class with so it is similar to a real classroom experience and you see each other grow.

Keith (U.S.A.)
“I enjoy the variety of different classes JOI offers.”
Although I was taking other Japanese classes at the time, I wanted to study from native speakers...It has been 3 years since!JOI is great even if you're not studying for JLPT exams and just generally want to improve your Japanese.
