Naru Sensei: Speak Japanese

Naru is a Japanese teacher you actually talk with.

Open the app, speak, and he answers out loud. He listens, corrects you at the right moment and explains in English. And he remembers you: your goal, yesterday’s mistakes, what you can already say. No two learners ever get the same lesson.

YOUR FIRST LESSON IS ON US
Ten minutes to get acquainted: Naru asks you a few questions, measures your level and prepares your first lesson, drawn from your own life. You speak Japanese today.

A LESSON THAT STARTS FROM WHAT YOU CAN SAY
The same method every time: you recall what you know, you learn the words and the rule, you build the sentence, you use it in your life, then the challenge. A lesson lasts as long as it needs, around fifteen minutes, and ends once it sticks.

A CLEAR PATH, FROM N5 TO N2
Five levels, chapters, and skills proven in session. You see where you are, where you’re going, and what you can really say. Already know some Japanese? Say so: Naru takes your word for it and moves on.

TALK FREELY
Just want to chat, no lesson? Start a conversation and keep going as long as you like. Naru notes what comes up for your next lessons.

READ JAPANESE YOUR WAY
Romaji, furigana or Japanese only: you choose. Tap any sentence to break it down word by word.

YOUR OWN MATERIAL, WITH NARU
Take a photo of a page from your textbook or class notes: Naru reads it and makes you practice it out loud.

YOUR WORDS, AS FLASHCARDS
Review silently, anywhere: your own words, in the order Naru picks.

NO SUBSCRIPTION
After your first lesson, you buy time with Naru: 2h 30, 12h 30 or 25h. Use it whenever you like, it never expires. No commitment, no renewal.
