Build your business Japanese

Why it works this way

Most Japanese study material is built to be graded. This is built to be spoken.

You speak. Every time.

No multiple choice, no typing, no tapping through a lesson tree. You answer out loud, because producing Japanese under mild social pressure is the skill that breaks down at work.

Organised by situation, not grammar point

You don’t need a lesson on 〜させていただく. You need to renegotiate a deadline on a Tuesday. Scenarios are built from what actually comes up in a working week.

Feedback on register, not just right and wrong

Which verb elevated the wrong person, where the cushion phrase was missing, whether you spoke for 90 seconds when 60 was the brief — plus what a colleague would have said.

Common questions

What level do I need to be?
Roughly N3 and up — enough grammar to form your own sentences, since you’ll be speaking rather than selecting. If you can hold a casual conversation but tighten up the moment it’s work, this is aimed squarely at you.
Is this JLPT preparation?
No, and deliberately so. The JLPT tests reading and listening; nobody at work will ask you to identify a grammar pattern. This covers the production side the test never measures.
What do I get for joining the waitlist?
Early access when your module opens, plus the free material named on each page — the interview question bank, the keigo cheat sheet, or the workplace phrase set, depending on where you sign up.
When does it launch?
There isn’t a public date yet, and we’d rather say so than invent one. The waitlist is how the first group gets in, and you’ll get one email when it’s ready.
How often will you email me?
Rarely. One email when your module opens, plus the occasional piece of material on the same topic. Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe.
What happens to my email address?
It goes to Kit, our email provider, tagged with which page you signed up from — and nowhere else. It’s never sold or shared.
