Why iTokyo

A transparent note about our N5 offline classes

N5 offline is taught by our experienced Indian trainer who focuses on English-first Hiragana and Katakana foundations. Native Japanese instructors lead all classes from N4 onwards. We tell you this upfront because you deserve to know.

⭐ Our Unfair Advantage

Native Japanese Trainers from N4 onwards.

Rare in South India. Our trainers are Japanese nationals who teach Japanese the way it's actually spoken — including the cultural context, business manners (keigo), and pronunciation that Indian-accented Japanese misses.

  • Native pronunciation from Week 1 of N4
  • Keigo (business Japanese) taught naturally
  • Real Japanese cultural norms
  • Direct feedback on your accent
⚠ Transparency note on N5

N5 in offline mode is taught by an Indian trainer (not native). This is because N5 is pure fundamentals — Hiragana/Katakana, basic grammar — where native accent matters less. Native trainers kick in at N4 when conversation skills start. We'd rather be transparent than oversell.

FAQ

Questions from prospective students

How long does JLPT N5 take?
3 months at iTokyo (120 hours, offline). Requires 10 hours/week of focused study. Self-paced LMS students typically take 4-5 months. Study plan →
What's the best way to learn Japanese as a beginner?
Structured class + Native Trainer + peer group. Self-study on YouTube has 80%+ dropout rate by Month 2. Our offline class has real teacher feedback, classmate accountability, and a proven curriculum.
How are fees displayed?
Fees are gated — you need to sign in to view them. This is so we can share current batch-specific offers. Create a free account in 60 seconds, and also get access to batch schedules + demo class booking.
What if I miss a class?
Offline: we record major lessons. Online: all sessions are recorded and available for replay. LMS: fully async, no "missing" possible.
Can I switch between formats mid-course?
Yes. Many students start offline, move to online if they relocate, or switch to LMS for revision before JLPT exam. Contact counsellors to arrange.
Do you have placement after N3/N2?
Yes, via NEX-GEN Tokyo pipeline. N3 opens SSW/IT roles, N2 opens Engineer/Business roles. Placement details →

Common questions

Each JLPT level has its own duration: N5 — 3 months / 120 hours, N4 — 4 months / 160 hours, N3 — 5 months / 200 hours, N2 — 6 months / 260 hours, N1 — 8 months / 340 hours. Pace is consistent — about 2 hours of class plus 1 hour of self-study per day. We don't rush.
For N5 (Foundation), no prior knowledge needed — we start from Hiragana and Katakana on day one. For N4 and above, you should have completed the previous level (or pass our placement test). Not sure where you stand? Book a free counseling call and we'll assess together.
From N4 onwards, yes — every batch is taught by a Native Japanese trainer. For N5 (Foundation), we use an experienced Indian trainer because beginners learn faster when grammar is explained in their own language. We've found this combination delivers the best long-term outcomes — that's how we maintain a 92% JLPT pass rate.
Offline: in-person classes at our Coimbatore campus — small batches, the classic learning setup. Online Live: live video classes you join from anywhere in India, with recordings included for revision. LMS: self-paced — recorded lessons + reading material + practice tests, you progress on your schedule (6 months of access). Pick what fits your routine.
Every Online Live class is recorded and shared with your batch the same day, so you never lose continuity. For Offline classes in Coimbatore, you can either join the corresponding Online Live session that week or get a 1-on-1 catch-up slot with the trainer. Nobody falls behind because of a missed day.
Yes — every level is built around the official JLPT syllabus. The final 2 weeks of every course are full mock-test prep covering Vocabulary, Grammar, Reading, and Listening sections under exam conditions. 92% of our students pass on their first attempt — across N5, N4, N3, and N2 batches since 2012.
We cap batches small on purpose: typically 12–16 students for Offline and 20–25 for Online Live. Small enough that the trainer knows your name and how you learn, big enough that you have batchmates to practice conversation with. LMS has no batch — it's self-paced.
Yes — every level offers a free demo session. You sit in on an actual class (Offline or Online Live), meet the trainer, see the teaching style, and ask any questions. Only after that you decide. Book your free demo →
