LEARNING JAPANESE WAS COMPLEX.


WE MADE IT SIMPLE.

What to say


NATURAL PHRASING

Learn how people actually talk, not just the "textbook language" used in most
learning materials.


How to say it


AUTHENTIC AUDIO

No robotically generated voices. No "teaching" voice. Native speakers speaking
as they would for other native speakers.


When to say it


REAL-WORLD CONTEXT

Japanese is a "high-context" language. If you don't know the situation, you
won't know what is natural to say.




JUST ONE BUTTON

Stop learning about how to learn Japanese and just learn it. Log in, click Study
Now, and we'll take care of the rest for you.

I'm about to finish Phase 1 of Nativshark, and just tested out of first-year
Japanese at university! Thanks to the Nativshark team for making this amazing
platform!

I genuinely feel like NativShark is setting a new standard for how language
learning should be... It's just a really amazing system

Studying how I thought was best is what led to me starting and ultimately
failing to learn Japanese like 3 times over the last decade. Letting someone
else control the whole thing is what let me finally start succeeding, and it's
ultimately what I personally find to be NativShark’s greatest strength.

one day the whole year. ... Thank you to everyone who has helped me on my
journey over this last year!

The thing i'm enjoying the most rn about the lessons are the notes about living
in Japan. ... I'm already grateful for the warm atmosphere that the lessons are
giving off as it pertains to learning how to navigate Japan through language.

Today I had a language exchange with a Japanese speaker and we used a mixture of
English and Japanese. I felt so much more confident when he complimented my
pronunciation, but the hardest part of it was putting together a sentence in
real-time without the luxury of texting and being able to think about it. It was
a good experience, though!

Finished part one of Bookworm. That‘s 72 chapters, 1.946 iPad-sized pages, ~10%
of the entire series done, 215 custom flashcards (so far) and 1 day and 18 hours
logged on Nativshark (first 14 chapters were before the immersion tracker). I’m
really proud of myself for sticking to one chapter a day since February almost
every day even with starting a new job. Making numbers go up has never been more
fun!

Just want to say you guys (and the wider team) are awesome! It’s so nice to see
you taking on suggestions from the community and integrating them so quickly and
effectively. The progress made in the year I’ve been a member has been huge.
I’ve tried just about every learning tool out there, and NS [NativShark] is my
first recommendation to anyone interested in learning Japanese. Just wanted to
express my appreciation, thank you!

One big reason I got so interested and involved with NativShark was the early
transparency about being mindful of not burning out and readjusting
expectations, to me it really set the tone as a company, product and group of
people that I could put my trust in

Hit my first 1-0-0 on NS the other day! 🦈 💯 though I did miss a few days and
want to be spending more time on it per day, I’m so glad to have found fun
structured learning that keeps me consistent. without NS I’m sure I would’ve
given up like 2 months ago lol have got a looong ways to go but slow and steady

UNLIT MATCH

Beginning

Every day you log into NativShark and complete your reviews, it will count as a
day towards your Days Studied achievements.

1 DAY

After studying for a day, your match will be lit.

3 DAYS

Keep it up for 3 days, and you'll move that flame over to a candle.

7 DAYS

Studying for a whole 7 days buys you an oil lamp to replace your candle.

28 DAYS

28 days of study means you're ready to carry this torch to your achievement!

60 DAYS

Get your days studied up to 60 days, and you're ready to start your kindling
fire.

166 DAYS

After about 24 weeks or 5.724137 moon cycles, you'll notice your kindling fire
is now a comfy campfire.

365 DAYS

One Year

Your campfire turns into a bonfire. Very cozy. Very toasty.

550 DAYS

Your toasty bonfire turns into a toasty volcano.

730 DAYS

Two Years

You're relaxing on your volcano when you see a comet in the sky. That is the
comet that you earned from studying for 730 days, two full years. That's quite
the achievement. Good work.

1,095 DAYS

Three Years

Your comet reaches the sun and melts into it. You've studied for 1,095 days, or
3 years. Feel free to stare at the sun on your screen. Can't recommend doing so
with the real-life version, even with sunglasses.

1,460 DAYS

Four Years

Your sun turns into a supernova. You kept up your studies for so long that you
out-studied the lifespan of your sun. Impressive.

2,920 DAYS

Eight Years

Your supernova moves onto the next phase of its life and turns into a black
hole. We knew you really absorbed information, but enough to spawn a black hole?
With dedication of this level, there's nothing you can't do.


For those who find such things motivating, we've got some fun rewards along the
way to mark your progress.

The more days you study the further you climb!

Frequently asked questions

DOES NATIVSHARK TEACH ME EVERYTHING I NEED TO LEARN JAPANESE?

Yes. NativShark is designed to be the only resource needed to reach a high level
of Japanese proficiency, and you do not need any other learning resources thanks
to our holistic teaching methods.

We recommend spending the extra time enjoying a manga, show, or video game in
Japanese instead^^

WILL NATIVSHARK PREPARE ME FOR THE JLPT?

Yes. Being able to pass various levels of the JLPT tests is a byproduct of
becoming proficient in Japanese, and our primary goal is to get you proficient.

You'll also have a much deeper understanding and functionality of Japanese
compared to an average learner who may be near a similar JLPT level as you,
since this test only measures a very specific (and unnatural to use in real
life) portion of the Japanese language.

WHAT MAKES NATIVSHARK DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER RESOURCE?

Because it gives you a realistic picture of how Japanese is used in real life.

Unfortunately, most other resources don't even tell you they're teaching you a
very specific kind of language that Japanese speakers do not use in everyday
life, let alone teach it to you.

WHAT IF I ALREADY KNOW SOME JAPANESE?

We recommend starting at the beginning of NativShark and archiving things you're
familiar with.

Many students have found that starting from the beginning has been extremely
beneficial to them in solidifying their foundation so they can understand and
use everyday Japanese.

CAN I CANCEL OR PAUSE A SUBSCRIPTION?

NativShark is free to start with no payment information required. You can
subscribe and unsubscribe whenever you like, and you can even review flashcards
of what you've learned so far without an active subscription.

IS THERE AN APP?

NativShark is a web app that works on desktop and mobile browsers. We do not
currently have a iOS or Android app, but we do have plans for one.
