I’ll be 65 in a couple of weeks. I’ve just started learning Japanese, mainly to work my old brain, but also because I love Japanese history and culture. Japanese has always seemed like it is so diffe... See more

The Japanese Blueprint works differently than other courses. Regular Japanese courses actually make it harder to learn. They use old teaching tricks that confuse your brain.

Very clear and helpful introduction
Very clear and helpful introduction. Easy to go back and revise. I personally take a little extra time to cover and repeat each lesson but it helps to retain what I have learned. Leanne Hawke
So far so good
So far so good! The lessons are easy to follow, the customer service is exceptional. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn Japanese.
Starting Japanese Blueprint….
Just started using the Japanese Blueprint. Lots of great features. Easy to navigate and use.
I think this will help me to understand, speak and read Japanese. I chose this course as it focuses on useable Japanese and not a lot of words/phrases that I don’t think I’d need.
just starting....
ability to hear mulitple times and at diffentent speeds, to see the word broken down in its componants
easy and seamless method of learnig
Still new to this, but I can tell there’s a difference.
I’ve only used the Japanese Blue print for 2 days before bed and there is a difference with this system. You learn practical vocabulary words and the kanji is described in a manner that easier to remember, by sight/symbols. Hoping my boys will try it as well since they will be taking Beginner Japanese in summer school.
I'm 71 and retired
I'm 71 and retired. Before Japanese Blueprint I thought that I would never be able to learn a new language. The phrase approach helped me get started and now I expect to be a able to communicate with locals on a very basic level. Thanks JB for getting my language brain running.
I learned how to introduce myself in…
I learned how to introduce myself in one day. I went through the first four lessons and things immediately just clicked. It trains your brain to recognizing patterns instead of just thousands of phrases, which to be honest, has always been my preferred method of learning languages. Now Japanese is a hard language for English speakers to learn, but this program definitely made it easier. The best part about the program is that you speak immediately and you don’t waste your time. The rest of the introductory course comes in packets PDFs that you get that were incredibly helpful especially the e-book 1000 Japanese words. If you like the video format, they do offer a bigger course that you still have to pay for, that is not included in the introductory course but even the introductory course with the few video lessons and multiple story videos, were so worth it. I highly highly recommend.
I've been studying Japanese on an app…
I've been studying Japanese on an app for about 1 years now. I felt as if the things I was learning just weren't relevant to my life. I was intrigued by the pitch for your course and figured I'd give it a shot. Within the first day I saw it was different. It's taught me things that I could immediately use. Practice makes perfect, and now I feel I am heading in the right direction.
The best product for learning Japanese
What made this amazing and worthy of 5 stars is how jam-packed it is with genuine learning materials and information that is honestly really helpful for learning Japanese.
I've only just started with the material recently as of this review, and I'm already learning a lot I wouldn't have learned with apps teaching the same language in a different format.
Solid product, would buy again!
Worth it!
This is such a different and refreshing way to learn that actually makes sense! I've been trying to do the traditional textbook, grammar route but this actually sticks. Highly recommend!
One Day at a Time
I have been studying Japanese for decades and I have tried a lot of ways to learn from Duolingo to Rosetta Stone. Japanese Blueprint seems promising in my journey. All I have to do is take it one day at a time.
Learning a new language is difficult - Japanese.
Learning a new language is difficult, especially for non-immersive adults and especially for speakers of languages based on Roman characters. I have found that Japanese Blueprint does as well as any other tool I have tried: Duolingo, Pimsleur, Rosetta Stone. Immersion really is the best method by far. But, I have used Japanese Blueprint to good effect and it is reasonably priced.
The course is easily understandable
The course is easily understandable, and makes me comfortable learning ti speak Japanese
I'm 71 and travel to Japan several times a times a year.
I'm a regular traveller to Japan and have done the usual textbook and Duolingo path to learn the language. Just at the beginning of using Japanese Blueprint but already finding it a more natural and organic way to assist my conversation with all the friends I have in Japan. I am about to turn 71 so it's never too late to finally feel confident you can do it. I DJ in Japan. Age is a number.
This is a good course for beginners
This is a good course for beginners - the style is fun and easy the course is easy to navigate once you put a bit of time in.
I recommend this course for total beginners!
I can remember what I have learnt
I have been using duo lingo and not really got very far with making it stick in my mind, but with Japanese blueprint I am able to remember words and phrases more easily.
Easy onboarding and useful language…
