Straight talk

This call is not a Japanese lesson

I won’t drill grammar or assign textbook homework. I’m a senpai who learned through immersion, and I can save you weeks of setup, confusion, and second guessing.

Practical guidance from someone who has done this.

Who is behind this

Hi, I’m Ben

I’m 33 and from France. I have been learning Japanese through immersion for just under three years, and my comprehension is now close to N2. I am a pretty average learner: I spend about two hours a day on Japanese and still make time for many other interests.

I spent a lot of that time testing tools, improving my immersion setup, and building a routine I could actually keep. I know how confusing and frustrating that can feel, especially at the beginning. I can help you avoid the dead ends, focus on what matters, and build a setup and routine that fit your life.

I’m not a teacher. I’m a fellow learner who can save you time and confusion.

FAQ

Quick answers

Is this a Japanese lesson?

No. I’m not a Japanese teacher and this is not a language class. We focus on your immersion setup, tools, and routine so you can learn from real Japanese content.

What if I’m a complete beginner?

That’s fine. We can start with tools and content that make sense if you are brand new.

What do I need before the call?

Your computer or tablet, a quiet hour, and your Starter Kit if you already have it. We can sort out the rest on the call.

Can I reschedule or get a refund?

You can reschedule freely before the call through Cal.com. If something goes wrong on my side, you’ll get a full refund. No stress.
