No. Everything in the course is written both in Japanese and sounded out with English letters. But getting started with Hiragana with our system is easy! Go through our '2 Hour Hiragana' course (free under the Read Japanese section of our site) and you can start reading in just a few hours.
Japanese Mastery Method is designed to turn you into a confident, conversational speaker of intermediate Japanese. One goal of the course is for you to be able to tell your own story in Japanese. Who you are, where you live and work, who your friends and family are, what your likes and dislikes are, where have you been and where are you going. A second goal of Japanese Mastery Method is to give you the most practical phrases needed for independent travel in Japan. Topics include: Asking directions, ordering food, learning about Japanese transportation, renting an apartment, getting a cab, as well as tactics for managing conversations with native Japanese speakers.
Absolutely! With J.M.M., you'll learn grammar the same way you learned as a toddler, through a process known as pattern recognition. Instead of memorizing the hundreds of complicated rules associated with Japanese grammar, you'll discover the patterns of how Japanese words change. It's a highly efficient and completely painless way to master Japanese grammar.
It's recommended you put aside approximately 30 minutes per day to study the material. Members, though, have lifetime access to the material, so you can go at your own speed.
There are 50 lessons in all, and each takes approximately 30 minutes to go through. If you follow our recommendations and study a new lesson every other day, (reviewing on your off days), then you should be able to complete the course in about 3 months. But everyone is different. A few have finished the course in four months, and many more have taken over a year. Again, you will always have access to the course, so you can go at your own speed.
Yes, most phones and tablets are supported although the videos will be very small on a phone, so study via a larger screen device is recommended.
We take pride in our customer support. All questions are answered within 24 hrs, and most are handled much faster than that.

We do not recommend J.M.M. for kids under 12. Though the material is all G rated, many references in the course will be lost on children. Furthermore, conversations are aimed more for adults.
