Should a learner choose group, private or online Japanese lessons?
Group classes are the lowest fee and give you classmates to practise with on a fixed intake schedule. Private lessons at $1,280 per level follow your own pace, timing and venue. Online classes over Zoom use the same syllabus and teachers as the classroom, and group or private lessons can both be taken that way.
