4. Lessons in English

Indirect Method vs. Direct Method
Unlike many Japanese language schools that use the Direct method (conducting classes mainly in Japanese), gokigen japanese employs the Indirect method, where tutors use English explanations to clarify grammar, vocabulary, or cultural nuances. This ensures that even absolute beginners feel comfortable and supported as they progress toward fluency.
Our 3-Step Learning Approach
To help you learn, practice, and review effectively, gokigen japanese follows these three steps:
- Pre-study
- Videos (76 total): Short clips covering essential grammar or vocabulary you watch before lessons.
- Lesson
- Slides (100 total): Interactive materials you’ll use live with your tutor for exercises and real-time practice.
- Review
- Handouts (76 total): Homework sheets or summaries reinforcing what was covered in your lesson.
By cycling through Pre-study → Lesson → Review, you’ll retain more of what you learn—and gain confidence faster!
