Work-Ready Japanese in 12 Weeks

Apply Now ➞

The Outcome

By the end of 12 weeks, you’ll be “work-ready” in Japanese — meaning you can:

  • contribute in meetings without freezing
  • write professional email/messages that sound normal
  • give status updates and answer follow-ups
  • understand work instructions and capture action items
  • handle small talk and build trust with your team

Not “perfect Japanese.”
Functional Japanese that works at work.

Who this is for

This is for you if:

  • you already have a confirmed role, offer, or internal transfer to Japan
  • you plan on working in Japan within 1 year
  • you’re a tech / consulting / finance professional (or similar)
  • you want to become work-ready within 6 months, starting with a 12-week foundation
  • you can commit up to 15 hours/week
  • you want an online system with structure + accountability (not random lessons)

This is not for you if you want a casual hobby course or you refuse structure.

  • "An efficient approach that I haven't been offered before..."

    - Joshua Johnson (American planning to work as an intercultural relations coordinator for youth programs in Japan)

  • "I'd definitely recommend this program to anyone wanting to learn Japanese FAST!"

    - Simon Slethei Rustad (4th year UK university student planning to work in the biomechanical engineering sector in Japan)

  • "More than just test prep..."

    - Daniel Padron (Transferred from an English Teaching Assistant to a client support account manager role in Japan )

Work-ready isn’t a vibe. It’s performance. You will pass these benchmarks:

The Work-Ready Benchmarks (Pass/Fail)

1) Meeting Core Survival (live roleplay)

You can clarify, confirm, politely interrupt, buy time, and summarize action items.

2) Email & Message Output

You create 10 reusable templates for yourself and adapt them to new situations quickly.

3) Reporting & Updates

You deliver a 60–90 second update and handle 3 follow-up questions.

4) Work Listening Capture

You capture key points + action items from work-style audio and ask correct follow-ups.

5) Professional Small Talk & Trust

You handle first-day intros, lunch talk, and project check-ins naturally.

6) Recovery Skill

You can fix misunderstandings, correct yourself, and recover smoothly.

7) Role-Specific Simulation

You complete a job-specific scenario end-to-end (tech/consulting/finance aligned).

If you can do these, you are work-ready.

For US/UK professionals with a confirmed Japan job/transfer who can’t afford to freeze in meetings, emails, or daily work conversations.

You don’t need “more studying.”
You need a system that makes you functional at work — fast.

Smart professionals FAIL in Japanese for one reason:

They learn Japanese the school way…

...then arrive in Japan and can’t:

  • follow meetings
  • write professional emails
  • explain what they did this week
  • ask for clarification without feeling awkward
  • build trust in small talk

This program fixes that — by training the exact situations you’ll face at work.

Why this works (and tutoring doesn’t)

Most tutoring is “talk about stuff.”
This program is performance training.

The Kizuna System:

Every week we run the same loop until you pass:

  1. Extract your real workplace situations
  2. Build scripts + templates for those situations
  3. Simulate live roleplay (recorded)
  4. Correct with direct feedback + rewrites
  5. Repeat until it’s automatic
  6. Deploy in real life (or in realistic simulations)

This turns Japanese into a job skill — not a study hobby.

What you get inside the 12-week program

  • A personalized roadmap (built around your job + calendar)

    No wandering. No “what should I do first?”

  • Workplace simulation training

    Meetings, email, updates, and real job scenarios — practiced until you can do them.

  • Accountability + consistency system

    You won’t fall off because motivation dips.

    ➞ weekly deliverables

    ➞ progress tracking

    ➞ accountability system

    ➞ a plan made for real life (not a perfect life)

  • Direct support + correction loop

    Your output gets corrected, refined, and reused so you improve faster.
