 8-Week Business Japanese Confidence Program

A practical online course designed for professionals working with Japanese companies.

Start Learning

Do these sound familiar to you?

  • You understand some Japanese, but you are not confident using it at work.
  • You studied Japanese before, but no one showed you how to use it in real business situations.
  • Writing emails takes too long because you are unsure if they sound professional.

The real problem isn’t your effort — it’s the approach

  • There’s no clear roadmap for mastering Business Japanese.
  • Indirect communication feels confusing and hard to interpret.
  • Textbooks don’t teach the communication style used in real workplaces.

Here’s what actually works

Instead of memorizing random phrases or relying on outdated textbooks, you need a clear, practical system that shows you exactly how Japanese is used in real business situations.

That means:

  • Knowing what to say
  • Knowing how to say it professionally
  • And knowing when to use it in real contexts

I'm now able to clearly recognize the various patterns of sonkeigo and kenjogo when they're being used. I also feel more confident in being able to control the level of formality that I want to demonstrate in conversation and by email.

Shohei is an exceptionally patient teacher and explains things clearly in both Japanese and English. That matters enormously when you are dealing with nuance and intent, not just vocabulary or grammar.

Thanks to Shohei, I finally made real progress with polite and business Japanese instead of just circling around the same issues.
