Expert 1-on-1 Japanese lessons for N5 through N1. Kanji mastery, grammar precision, and listening drills — all calibrated to your exact JLPT target level.
The JLPT has five levels, N5 (easiest) to N1 (hardest). Each has distinct vocabulary, kanji, and grammar requirements.
Vocabulary: ~800–1,500 words
Kanji: ~100–300 kanji
N5 is the entry point — basic greetings, numbers, and simple sentences. N4 adds daily-life situations and essential grammar. Both are achievable in 6–12 months of consistent study.
Vocabulary: ~3,750 words
Kanji: ~650 kanji
The pivotal mid-level. N3 separates casual learners from committed students. You'll handle everyday conversations, read simple news articles, and understand most TV dramas with subtitles.
Vocabulary: ~6,000–10,000+ words
Kanji: ~1,000–2,000 kanji
N2 is required by most Japanese universities and many employers. N1 is the highest level — proof of near-native fluency. Both demand systematic grammar drilling and extensive reading.
Why a certificate changes what's possible — for your career, education, and life in Japan.
JLPT N2 or N1 is listed as a requirement or strong preference in thousands of Japanese job postings — from tech companies to finance firms and global manufacturers.
Japanese universities require JLPT N2 minimum for international students. Top programs at Tokyo, Waseda, and Keio explicitly list N1 as a plus.
A JLPT certificate strengthens applications for highly-skilled professional visas in Japan and can support points-based immigration systems.
Without a certification goal, motivation stalls. Having a specific JLPT level and exam date transforms vague studying into a structured sprint.
Generic content doesn't pass the JLPT. Expert teachers build everything around your specific target level and exam date.
Every new student gets a diagnostic session. Your teacher maps your actual grammar, vocabulary, and listening gaps against the JLPT rubric — not a generic level estimate.
Lessons are built around official JLPT grammar lists and vocabulary frequencies. No wasted time on out-of-scope content.
Rote memorization fails above N4. Your teacher introduces kanji through sentences you'll actually encounter in JLPT reading passages.
JLPT listening is notoriously fast. Weekly timed drills with real-time correction build the processing speed needed to follow native-speed Japanese.

JLPT N2 — Passed
"I had failed N2 twice. My Unox teacher diagnosed exactly where I was losing points in the grammar section and built targeted exercises around those patterns. Third attempt: passed with 95 points to spare."

JLPT N4 → N2 in 14 months
"The kanji sessions were unlike anything I found online. My teacher connected every new character to something I already knew, and the JLPT reading sections went from terrifying to manageable within three months."
