Japanese teacher in Budapest
Japanese lessons in Budapest and online, from anywhere in the country
Japanese lessons take place in Budapest, at a pre-agreed location, or via online video call — with the same materials and the same price either way. Most of my Budapest students mix both formats, and for those outside the capital or abroad, I teach exclusively online.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Japanese lessons
How long does it take to learn Japanese?+
With two Japanese lessons a week and 20–30 minutes of daily practice, you'll typically reach JLPT N5 level in 8–10 months, and confident, independent conversation (N3) in about 2–3 years. The pace depends on your goals: someone who just wants to speak progresses faster than someone who also focuses heavily on kanji.
How much does a Japanese lesson cost?+
Individual online lesson: 8,500 HUF / 60 min; Individual in-person lesson: 10,000 HUF / 60 min (Vecsés, Gyál and Budapest districts XVIII and XIX). Pair lesson: 5,000 HUF/person / 60 min; Group lesson (3–5 people): 4,800 HUF–4,200 HUF/person / 60 min, depending on group size. From 2 lessons a week, an individual lesson costs 8,000 HUF / 60 min. Students get an 11% discount; with 2+ lessons a week the student rate is 7,500 HUF. Free 30-minute online consultation (not a lesson). Listed prices are VAT-exempt (Hungarian subjective tax exemption); no VAT is charged.
Is online or in-person teaching better?+
Both follow the same speech-focused methodology. Online lessons are more flexible, accessible from anywhere, and we work with a shared notes interface. In-person Japanese lessons in Budapest suit those who concentrate better in a live setting and value handwriting practice. Many of my students use a mix of both.
