Because knowledge and fluency are two different skills. This is a focused, month-by-month coaching program that bridges the gap, with proven methods, daily speaking practice, and a coach who works with you as a team. Start with one month. Continue only if you want to.
You've studied grammar and passed tests. But when it's time to speak, you freeze, or you sound too textbook.
You're not "bad at Japanese." You're just stuck in study mode.
One focused month gets you speaking, with proven methods and daily speaking practice, without waiting to feel ready.
This is not just a lesson. And we're not simply teacher and student.
This is a transformation program where you and I work together as a team to transform how you speak and how you learn.
We work one month at a time. Each month has one clear goal and turns your passive Japanese knowledge into real speaking ability, completely tailored to your level, your goals, and your lifestyle. Start with a single month. If you want to keep going, you continue month by month, for as long as it's useful to you.
Choose your focus: Polite Japanese, Casual Japanese, or even Kansai Dialect.
A free video call to understand your goals, analyse your level, and decide together if this is the right fit.
A clear plan for the month: one goal, weekly targets, and a phrase list chosen for your level and your real life.
A 1-on-1, 60-minute session every week focused on speaking, scenario practice, and real-time correction.
Just two a day: a short video diary and your shadowing recording. Small, daily, doable. That's where fluency is built.
Fast, focused feedback on what you send: one thing you nailed, one fix, and one phrase to use today.
We record you in Week 1 and again in Week 4. By the end of the month, you hear your own progress.
We start with a free video call where we:
You'll walk away with clarity, even before the program begins.
Based on your Discovery Call, I design a roadmap for the month, built entirely around your speaking goals:
You'll always know exactly what you're building toward, and why.
Every week of the month, you get:
You won't just "practice."
You'll rewire how you speak Japanese.
Between sessions, you're never on your own:
This isn't a once-a-week lesson. By the end of the month, you hear the change yourself.
Hi, I'm Tyson, founder of Nihongo Hongo.
Since I became a Japanese tutor 5 years ago, I have helped more than 100 dedicated Japanese learners leap from just knowing the language to actually speaking it naturally, confidently, and in the moment.
This program exists because I've seen what happens when you stop studying about Japanese and start training to produce it. The results are always the same: disbelief at how fast things change when you have the right system and the right partner.
If you're ready to stop waiting until you're "ready," let's get started.
"Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What's important is the action. You don't have to wait to be confident. Just do it and eventually the confidence will follow."
Start with one focused month at $699. You pay month by month, with no upfront packages and no pressure to commit beyond the month you're in. Stay as long as it's helping, and stop whenever you want.
Book a Free Discovery CallWe always start with a free discovery call, so you know it's the right fit before you pay a thing.
No long contract and no upfront package. You pay $699 one month at a time, and you can stop any time. The current month is non-refundable, as it covers your roadmap, phrase list, and coaching.
Life happens. If you need to pause between months due to personal circumstances, just reach out before your next month begins and we'll hold your spot and pick up when you're ready.
