Repetitive Learning
- By repeatedly practicing reading, watching, writing, and distinguishing, the characters will be permanently fixed in your memory.
- With different methods such as videos, online quizzes, dictation sheets, and flashcards, you will not get bored, and even people who dislike writing will make steady progress.
- This is a highly effective learning method for beginners who want to master Japanese characters.
Looking at the unique characters, do you feel, "It looks so hard! I'll never be able to remember them!”?
Don't worry!
When you first start, just looking at the characters will make you feel anxious. But once you get used to them a little, they become really simple. Japanese grammar and pronunciation are not so hard, so once you remember the characters, learning becomes much easier.
How do you get used to the characters?
I designed this course to take care of that problem.
In this course, you learn the same characters over and over again in various ways, helping them sink in quickly.
First, you watch a video on how to write the character, then you guess the Hiragana on an animated quiz or read it aloud with a word quiz.
After that, you review it again with an online, multiple-choice quiz.
Then, practice again by writing them on the drill sheet.
How do you know if your characters are written properly?
With this course, your characters written on the drill sheet will be checked by your Japanese teacher!
If you study the characters in this way, you will master Hiragana and Katakana by the end.
Who is This Best For?
- Anyone who wants to learn Japanese characters correctly
- Beginners in Japanese

Before you enroll...
Let me briefly explain the Japanese characters.
There are three types of characters in Japanese
Hiragana
「にほんご」"nihongo" in hiragana
Hiragana is the most basic of the Japanese character systems, with a total of 46 letters.
Katakana
「ニホンゴ」"nihongo" in katakana
Katakana is used to write words from foreign languages.
It looks simpler than hiragana and is a little more pointy in shape.
Kanji (Chinese characters)
「日本語」"nihongo" in kanji
In Japanese, the word stem for nouns, adjectives, and verbs are mostly written with kanji.
Japanese has simple pronunciation and many homonyms, so kanji actually make it easier to read and understand than just using hiragana.
In this course, you will learn the all Hiragana and Katakana.

Konnichiwa! I'm Chika Sensei.
I have been teaching Japanese in schools and universities since 2002.

The Academy quickly became my full-time business, and I've now helped over 1,000 students in my paid courses.
