・Frequently asked questions
FAQs
How much time should I dedicate to be successful with the Japanese Accelerator Program?
There isn’t one “correct” pace — the right cadence is the one you can actually stay consistent with.
Most members get the best results by following the weekly structure:
- 1 coaching session per week
- 1–2 speaking labs per week
- 30–60 minutes a day, 4–5 days/week (missions + practice)
That said, you can move faster if you want:
- Some learners treat Week 1 like a “bootcamp” and knock out the setup + first missions in a weekend.
- Others prefer steady momentum by doing a little each day.
- If your schedule is heavy, you can still progress with shorter daily blocks — the key is consistency.
What matters most is this: you schedule the time, complete the weekly missions, and submit your proof each week.
That’s what creates real speaking ability — not binge-watching lessons.
I've tried other Japanese programs. How is this one different?
This program is built on Gus's system designed to ignite rapid Japanese growth so you can get ahead, stay ahead, make it stick, and succeed in any environment. It provides immersive masterclasses and access to Gus's proven tools and strategies. Your responsibility? Simply show up, engage, and prepare to turbocharge your business growth.
What support will I receive during the program?
Comprehensive support is integral to the program. From live coaching with Gus and expert-led masterclasses to an on-demand Japanese toolkit to a dedicated support team, we're here to assist. Plus, all live events and masterclasses are recorded for later viewing.
What if I fall behind?
The program allows you to learn and progress at your own pace. If you miss any live events or masterclasses, they will be recorded and available for you to revisit at your convenience.
Do I really need this program?
If you’re already operating in Japanese the way you want — consistently, confidently, in real conversations — then you don’t need this.
But if any of these are true, this program is built for you:
- You “know Japanese” but freeze when you speak
- You understand more than you can produce
- You’re inconsistent and keep restarting
- You need Japanese for work / daily life / living in Japan
- You want a clear plan and someone to hold you to it
This program isn’t about “more studying.”
It’s about installing a system that makes speaking inevitable: weekly structure, real reps, feedback loops, and accountability.
If you want to stop guessing and start speaking with confidence in 90 days, you’ll get value fast.
What kind of growth can I expect from this program?
The program is set up for you to experience 30%-65% growth or more. The effort you invest directly correlates with the results, and applying the strategies swiftly and effectively in your Japanese studies can lead to substantial growth.
I’m a beginner learner. Is this program too advanced for me?
Japanese Accelerator is designed for learners of all levels, from absolute 0 to casual learners and working professionals. The goal is simple: grow your Japanese no matter what situation life throws at you, regain control of your time and energy.
Is this program suitable for non-native English speakers or those who aren’t tech-savvy?
The course content is delivered in English. We do not offer translated content at this time. Our online platform is designed for individuals of all tech skill levels, and our support team is ready to assist with any concerns.

Who can benefit from the 90-Day Japanese Accelerator?
This program is for busy adults who want real-world Japanese and don’t want to waste another year “studying” without speaking.
It’s a fit if you:
- Need Japanese for work, daily life, or living in Japan
- Are stuck, inconsistent, or low-confidence when speaking
- Want a clear weekly roadmap (so you’re not guessing what to learn)
- Are willing to do the work: 30–60 min/day, 4–5 days/week
- Want structure, accountability, and feedback — not casual tutoring
This is not a fit if you:
- Only want JLPT-focused prep
- Want a low-commitment hobby program
- Don’t want to record yourself / do speaking missions
If your goal is to speak Japanese consistently in real situations, this is built for you.
I’ve read Gus's books and watched his videos. How is this different?
Reading Gus’s books and watching videos is a great place to start. You’ll be more prepared to understand and implement many of the principles and strategies you’ll learn during Japanese Accelerator training. However, books, social media posts and videos can’t replace a training program's personalized instruction and ongoing accountability.
Japanese Accelerator includes one live coaching session with Gus each week. In this session, you’ll learn cutting-edge strategies of what’s working best right now and practical tools for unstoppable Japanese growth. These sessions will be laser-focused on you, your Japanese and its growth.
Consistent, focused effort is the most powerful tool for achieving lasting success. Japanese Accelerator training connects you with a group of driven, supportive peers to keep you focused and accountable. Monthly masterclasses will fast-track your progress.
How will the 90-Day Japanese Accelerator help me improve my Japanese?
In the 90-Day Speaking Sprint, you’ll follow a proven speaking-first system that turns “knowledge” into real conversation ability — fast.
You’ll build:
- A speaking mindset (so you stop freezing)
You’ll train confidence through structured reps, not “perfect Japanese.” You’ll learn how to stay in the conversation even when you don’t know a word. - A weekly roadmap (so you stop guessing what to study)
Each week you get a clear plan: what to learn, what to say, and what to submit — so progress becomes predictable. - High-leverage patterns + phrases (Japanese you actually use)
Instead of random vocab lists, you learn the sentence patterns and phrase banks that show up constantly in work and daily life. - Speaking reps with real feedback (so mistakes don’t stick)
You practice in coaching + labs, submit recordings, and get corrections and upgrades so you improve quickly. - Accountability + routines (so consistency becomes automatic)
Daily check-ins + missions create a “no-zero-days” system that keeps you moving even on busy weeks. - Proof-based progress (so you can see results)
Baselines, weekly artifacts, and recorded benchmarks make improvement obvious — and keep motivation high.
Bottom line: this program removes the two things that keep most learners stuck — no structure and no output — and replaces them with a system that makes speaking inevitable.
Can the 90-Day Japanese Accelerator help me feel more confident and less stressed in Japanese?
Yes — that’s one of the main reasons people join.
A lot of Japanese stress doesn’t come from “low level.” It comes from:
- not knowing what to say in the moment
- overthinking grammar
- freezing under pressure
- feeling like you’re always behind
This program is designed to help you do more with less effort by installing a system that reduces overwhelm:
- Clear weekly direction so you’re not constantly guessing what to study
- Small daily tasks (5–10 minutes) so you stay consistent without burnout
- Repeatable speaking frameworks so you don’t panic in conversations
- Structured practice + feedback so you improve faster and stop carrying the same mistakes
- Confidence through reps so real-life Japanese starts feeling normal
The goal isn’t to “study harder.”
The goal is to make Japanese feel lighter — because you finally have a plan, a routine, and proof you’re improving.
I feel overwhelmed with learning Japanese. Can Japanese Accelerator training help me reduce stress?
In our years of working with Japanese language learners, we have found that the root cause of burnout is often unclear goals and a lack of purpose. Nobody feels stressed and burned out when their work is exciting and energizing. One of the first things you will do in Japanese Accelerator is to build a clear and compelling vision for your "Japanese life". When you tie your Japanese growth to a greater purpose, you will be pulled toward your goals instead of grinding forward.
When you’ve mastered your energy and psychology, you’ll learn strategies to streamline your processes. You will create systems that allow you to accomplish more in less time. It is possible to achieve exponential growth AND spend more time doing things you love with people you love. You didn’t become a business owner to feel trapped. It’s time to take control of your life and build a business that serves YOU.
How can Japanese Accelerator training help me prepare for when my life gets busy?
Life gets busy no matter what — there is no "when". The goal is to make sure your Japanese doesn’t disappear when it does.
Japanese Accelerator keeps you moving with:
- a simple weekly plan (so you’re not guessing)
- tiny daily tasks you can do even on hectic days
- one weekly speaking mission so you still get real output
- support + accountability so you don’t fall off for weeks
Busy won’t be a reset button anymore — it’ll just be a slower week you can still win.
Can Japanese Accelerator help me learn more kanji and grammar?
Yes — but we teach them for speaking, not for memorizing.
You’ll learn:
- the high-frequency grammar patterns you actually use in conversations
- kanji that supports real-life reading (messages, menus, signs, work docs)
What we don’t do:
- random kanji lists
- textbook-style grammar drills
Everything is tied to a weekly speaking mission, so you don’t just “learn it” — you use it.
How long will it take to see a difference? How long will results last?
Most people feel a difference in the first 1–2 weeks — not because they “learn more,” but because they finally have a clear plan and start getting real speaking reps.
By 30 days: you’ll notice faster responses, less freezing, and more confidence in familiar scenarios.
By 90 days: you should be able to hold real conversations in your target situations (work + daily life) with much less hesitation.
How long the results last depends on one thing: whether you keep using Japanese.
The good news is the program is built to make that automatic — you leave with a repeatable routine, speaking frameworks, and habits that don’t disappear the moment life gets busy.
In short: you’ll see progress quickly, and it lasts as long as you keep the reps going (even at a lighter maintenance pace).
