Additional exercises help you to form sentences correctly – lessons are tailored to your individual learning level.
 
Choosing the right learning method makes it easy to learn Japanese, regardless of whether you have trouble remembering words or regardless of your age, you can always learn a new language.

The best learning system to teach you Japanese quickly and successfully is as follows:
 
You learn individually:
Crucial to your learning success will be that you learn at your own pace.
In the course, you can decide every day how much time you want to spend on the lesson, whether you want to learn vocabulary or grammar, with superlearning music or without, and much more.
 
You learn in a playful way:
What many underestimate when learning a language is that initial motivation quickly wanes.
It is important that the learning system gives you varied tasks and motivates you with playful elements to learn a little bit more every day.
Therefore, in this language course you can, for example, collect points for what you have learned and exchange them for rewards or compare yourself with other learners.
 
You learn sustainably:
When learning a language, remembering is more important than anything else.
Only if you can really remember what you have learned over a long period of time will you really see lasting learning success.
User tests have shown that with superlearning technology you remember vocabulary 32% faster than with conventional learning methods.

This Japanese language course helps you to automatically build learning into your daily routine:
 
Your learning schedule is pre-programmed.
You simply start your Japanese course every day and learn according to a curriculum that is individually tailored to you.
This saves time because you don't have to think about what to learn next.
In addition, the Japanese course is programmed to help you memorise vocabulary optimally and at the fastest possible speed.

Learning Japanese really works at any age.
Studies carried out by 17 Minute Languages have shown that 80-year-olds take only about 50% longer than 30-year-olds to learn Japanese.
So it's never too late to learn a language.

The basis for good Japanese skills is a large vocabulary.
With the superlearning technology, you learn new words up to 32% faster.
 
Learning must be fun:
If learning Japanese feels like an interesting and motivating game, then you are doing everything right.
 
It's all about finding just the right mix of vocabulary, grammar and dialogue texts. The 17 Minute Languages' daily trainer is designed to present these topics in a perfectly structured way.

If you really want to learn Japanese fast, or maybe even need to, then you should work with the long-term memory learning method and superlearning.
Both techniques perfectly support you in absorbing all learning content in the shortest possible time.

Transcription for Romaji can be turned on and off in all our courses.
