At NihongoDO, we hired a second language acquisition expert as a partner and High-quality learning programs based on theoretical methods.

I memorized more than 6,000 words.
But why can't I understand Japanese?

You should be able to have basic conversation in Japanese if you memorized 6,000 words. Nonetheless, if you can't understand Japanese, the reason is that you cannot relate sound to the meaning.

You can understand the live Japanese language of native speakiers since NihongoDO focuses on linking sounds and meanings.

For more details
 

Your brain's processing ability stops you from speaking Japanese fluently.
You can speak Japanse with the right training.

Japanese people use about 800 to 900 words in a day. You should be able to have a conversation with simeple words that are elementary school level; however, processing capacity of your brain makes it difficult to speak Japanese. Your brain is confused and that is why Japanese language is not automatic in your mind.

For example, many people can say "konnichiwa" immediately but cannot say "I don't like these scissors, so I will buy the ones over there" instantaneously. NihongoDO thoroughly automates various Japanese phrases down to the "konnichiwa" level. This will allow you to speak Japanese smoothly.

I feel that I have made more progress than I initially imagined by regularly discussing my learning progress with my consultant, setting up a learning process and appropriate assignments supported by theory, introducing daily tips, and outputting various topics with native speakers three times a week. I felt the importance of creating an environment that creates a steady 1,000 hours of learning opportunities. In addition to these lessons, opportunities for free talk sessions and parties are also planned and I am enjoying learning foreign laungage.

The presence of an exclusive consultant is huge. Consultants are able to objectively monitor the amount of study in the long term, and track improvement since they are dedicated to students. Since consultants are watching our progress, it also becomes a form of motivation. Whenever I feel stuck or have questions, they give me accurate advice, which keeps me motivated to learn foreign laungage. I also felt that many of the lesson coaches are skilled in teaching laungage to learners who are trying to learn a second language. Due to their diverse backgrounds and countries of origin, they are able to talk not only about business situations but also about current events, hobbies, and a wide variety of other topics. In addition to individual lessons, seminars and events are held on an irregular basis to keep students interested and motivated in learning foreign laungage.

It has been 20 years since I started wanting to learn to speak a foreign language, but I have kept failing. I joined Toraiz because I needed a foreign language for my work. After I finished my university entrance exam, I was so nervous that I could not speak at all in my first online lesson because I had no experience with using any language other than my native language. However, I think I am now able to actually enjoy traveling abroad, by starting over with grammar from the beginning and repeating lessons. I compared many other schools before joining, but I think the one-year course was right for me because I felt like I was finally able to start speaking foreign language from the third month. The price is not cheap, but it is just another big reason to keep me going. My life has changed since COVID-19 pandemic, and my work and childcare (two elementary-school boys) have been really tough. However, thanks to the consultants, I have not fallen behind. It will be a little less than a year from now, but I will do my best to be able to use foreign language skills at work!

The consultants were very enthusiastic in guiding me through the process, and I was able to continue for a long period of time (one year) without giving up. Consultants provided me with reassurance and supported me even when I was feeling anxious or not in the mood to learn. The highly qualified and reliable native tutors gave me advice on how to study and communicate with them by e-mail and during the lessons. The students are all working hard as well so that you can naturally get along with them. I was not very good at studying, foreign languages in particular, but I was able to improve to the point where I can talk with foreign people on the street without fear when approached. I am very confident that I was able to accomplish my goals in this one-year course.

Lessons with coaches three times a week and progress checks with consultants twice a month motivated me to study, but the rest of the time I felt like I was just reporting on my studies. I felt more motivated when I asked questions. I would appreciate it if you could limit the number of participants for seminars, which have specific topics such as pronunciation practice. It would be helpful if you could record past seminars so that we could watch them when we were unable to attend due to inconvenience.

I was originally not good at making learning foreign language a habit. Toraiz is unique because it forces you to set aside a certain amount of time for study. However, the method is extremely well-designed, scientifically researched and effective, and the exclusive consultant gives us specific advice on an individual basis while understanding our learning situation in great detail. This has enabled me to continue learning, which I was not very good at, and I am most pleased with the improvement in my language skills. This is not only in my Versant scores that I took regularly, but also in the business meetings where I use foreign languages. Language is just a tool so I am very happy to say that I can now express what I want in a somewhat stress-free way.

I started with the goal of improving my foreign language skills as well as continuing my study. From the initial counseling to the present, I feel that the consultants have always supported me in the right direction. Sometimes it is not always easy to meet the goals we set, but the consultants encourage us and offer various study methods and advice. My study is going well, and I am enjoying it due to the help of the consultants.

I heard about a self-study event then I thought "let's schedule it ahead of time" and I attended the event with a light heart. At this event, I was able to study for 90 minutes, which was my original goal. It was interesting to learn what other students were studying. There were people studying the textbooks I used to use, and I was cheering them on from the shadows! There were also people who were using textbooks that I was interested to hear how they were using them. The consultant's small talk was also interesting! Thank you very much for organizing this event. I will study hard for another week!
