Explore the world from Dayton with a Dayton Japanese course offered by Varsity Tutors. Whether you're brand new to the language or you're looking for ways to improve your sentence structure or pronunciation, Varsity Tutors offers you convenient and affordable access to the Japanese language, history, and culture.
What benefits will you receive from a Japanese course?
Learn from an expert in the Japanese language. Learning Japanese can be difficult at first for some U.S. students since it is so different from English. Unlike Romance languages like French or Spanish, Japanese writing uses different characters than English - and there are many more of them, too. Additionally, Japanese isn't widely spoken here, both because of the distance to Japan and because not as many schools offer the language.
Furthermore, Japanese is a tonal language, so it's critical that students properly learn different tones correctly - the same word pronounced with a different tone can mean something completely different. Similarly, Japanese can be tricky for new learners because some words and phrases can mean different things based on their context. The context surrounding those words and phrases can change the very nature of what's being said.
All of these are reasons why it's important to work with a Japanese instructor who is knowledgeable of the language, history, and literature of Japan while you pursue your goal. Your instructor may have great information that you can't find in a textbook and can serve as your shortcut to fundamental knowledge about the Japanese language.
What would Japanese classes look like?
Your expert instructor will guide you and other students in the Dayton Japanese class through the curriculum in an online, collaborative space. You'll be able to see, hear and interact with your instructor and other classmates through a virtual platform.
Shared courses allow for more time for students to practice Japanese. Because more time spent listening to and speaking in a new language leads to a better command of that language, having access to a shared course provides you with vital experience. With fellow classmates, you'll have more practice speaking in and listening to Japanese than you would receive from learning it on your own. That's crucial for better comprehension of Japanese, including understanding everything from common phrases and essential vocabulary to sentence structure and verb conjugations.
Need a little extra help? Additional one-on-one tutoring is also available. Work at your own pace with your instructor. Take a deep dive into specific subjects until you're comfortable moving on, or go faster through areas where you just need a quick refresher. Instructors undergo a rigorous vetting process to ensure that you receive assistance from highly qualified professionals with great communications skills for your needs.
Students in a Dayton Japanese class will have access to our Live Learning Platform. This one-of-a-kind portal combines video chat, interactive tools, and workspaces where students can work together on lessons. For learners seeking one-on-one lessons, the platform connects them with an instructor through their desktop computer or mobile device at any time. Language learners typically juggle a variety of commitments - classes, work, extracurricular activities, and so on - so the option to virtually connect with an instructor on the go is invaluable.
How can I enroll in a Dayton Japanese course?
Whether you're a student looking for extra practice outside of the classroom or an adult learner seeking new life skills, it's easy to get the help you're looking for. Choose between a two-week course or a four-week course when you enroll. There are multiple sections of Dayton Japanese courses, and because new sections start each month, you're always on time to get a first-rate course. The online class structure also adds to your convenience: make wherever your computer is your new classroom.
Learning a new language like Japanese can be challenging. But with more than 125 million Japanese speakers in the world and a written language dating back more than 1,000 years, it's a challenge rich with rewards. Getting a leg up on learning the language is a great step for people interested in visiting or working in Japan as well.
Give yourself a boost with an online Dayton Japanese class. Language courses are a great asset to all types of language learners, whether you're a student at Stebbins High School, Belmont High Schools, taking a class at the University of Dayton, planning a trip abroad to Japan, or just have a healthy desire to learn about another culture.

Rex: Dayton Japanese course instructor
As a tutor I will never give you information in a way that has proven ineffective. I'm 100% willing to change my methods to suit your needs, because my goal is to help you! Please feel free to send me a message for any reason, be it questions, concerns, or a self introduction. Kind regards, Rex... First, I would have the student tell me what they want to learn and why they wish to learn it. If it's studying for a test, I will make them as well versed in the "big picture" as possible in the amount of time available, instead of getting caught up on every detail. If it's for general studies, I would find the student's weaknesses and give him/her the answers he/she needs to fix the toughest problems, and I'd put the student in a position where he/she could solve more future problems without assistance, because the student would know how to work it out alone.
