Real Communication Comes First
Let us ask you one simple question.
When Japanese people communicate with you in English, do you really care about perfect grammar, test scores, or advanced vocabulary? If someone can communicate warmly, naturally, and confidently with you, that’s what truly matters.
At Akita Inaka School Online, we believe Japanese language learning is about real communication, culture, and human connection.
Our lessons work a little differently.
Since we are developing our own learning platform, students and teachers can communicate directly and build a more personal learning experience together.
Not Sure Which Teacher to Choose?
If you are unsure which teacher would be the best match for you, feel free to contact us for recommendations.
Every teacher has completed our AIS training program and can provide personalized learning plans based on your goals and learning style.
Start with a 30-Minute First Lesson
We highly recommend starting with a 30-Minute First Lesson. You can book a session with any teacher you’re interested in and see who matches your learning style and goals best. During this session, teachers will learn more about your goals, level, interests, and preferred learning style.
After that, you can confidently begin your Japanese learning journey.
Lesson Pricing
Lesson prices vary depending on the teacher, experience level, and lesson style. Most private one-on-one lessons on AIS range from around $28 USD per 50-minute lesson to around $40 USD.
Since each teacher sets their own lesson structure and pricing, we recommend checking the platform directly to find the best match for your goals and budget.

One-on-one lessons are very personal, and every student has a different learning style.
Finding the right teacher can make a huge difference in your confidence, motivation, and speaking ability.
