Why Take Japanese Lessons in Christchurch with Language Trainers?

  • Christchurch-Based Japanese Tutors: Learn with a native-speaking tutor who makes Japanese practical from the outset. Build confidence with Japanese script, pronunciation, grammar, and useful phrases for real situations, from introducing yourself to navigating a local shop or restaurant in Japan.
  • Flexible Learning: Choose lesson times that work around your routine. Meet your tutor at home, at work, or in a central location such as C1 Espresso on High Street, where you can fit a session into a busy day in the city.
  • Customised Japanese Courses: Study for the JLPT, prepare for travel, strengthen Japanese for work in tourism, education, trade, or research, or take up the language for personal interest. Your tutor plans each lesson around your current level and the skills you want to develop.
  • Local Immersion Opportunities: Christchurch offers several ways to stay connected with Japanese culture beyond lessons. Japan Fiesta takes place at Riccarton Park each year, with food, performances, workshops, and cultural activities. The Japanese Film Festival at Christchurch Art Gallery and local Japanese language exchanges also give you more chances to hear the language in use.
  • Japanese Courses Near You: Our tutors come to you, no matter where you are located. Whether you live in Merivale, Riccarton, Sumner, or Halswell, lessons can take place at a location that suits you.

Reviews of our Japanese courses

On the first day, my teacher brought a variety of materials to assess my level and see what type of areas I wanted to focus on. From then on we discussed what I wanted to do in each following lesson and she even went out of her way and brought material that I hadn't thought of that proved incredibly relevant and useful for me.

My first lesson with Yukiko Sensei went very well and she was able to tailor the lesson to exactly what I needed. She was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable.
