seems like you can get lessons from kinda well known people via skype if you’re willing to pay the $ as well. mate of mine was getting guitar lessons off kevin hufnagel on skype.

Yes my pal at work does it. He was teaching in Mexico, and came home to study last year. He now teaches in the holidays at the same place I work for, but does Skype lessons in term time with his old students back in Mexico and new people who get passed on by word of mouth.

I tried Japanese but found it a little stilted, so gave up and joined evening classes at King’s - but then, maybe it just my learning style preferences.

Submission and degradation.

japanese is what i wanna learn. how’s the classes? is it $$$?

Think mine were 270 ish for 10 weeks, which isn’t brilliant value, but the teacher was very very good. You get a discount if you pay for another set of 10 in advance.

In the class there’s a lot of speaking and putting you on the spot which I found very useful, and then there’s a little bit of homework plus learning hiragana in your own time. Combine it with apps, flashcards etc and you’ll really accelerate your learning.

I finished level 1 part 2 recently and will probably sign up again.

Is this so you can play Final Fantasy games in their original language?

#49

25-30 p/h seems to be the going rate anyway tbh so it’s not bad value.

NO OF COURSE NOT. i want to read my weaboo japanese novels in the original language.

my old housemate used to do uilleann pipes lessons over skype. i imagine it’s quite awkward. i did a job interview over skype once which felt quite weird.
